21 before 21

I was feeling very motivated this morning and realised that there are so many things I want to do in my life, but I just 'forget' or postpone them with "One day I will get around to it" and never do. Having decided it was time for action, I decided to write a list.

Of 21 things I want to finish before I'm 21. Since I turn 21 in September this year, this gives me approximately 9 months to complete the list, and I have very little time considering I am a full-time student and will be working full-time this summer. Nevertheless, I enjoy a challenge every now and then. So here it is. The great list of 21:

1. Qualify as a sky-diver
2. Run a 5K race
3. Go on a holiday with my friends
4. Go fishing
5. Invest in the stock market
6. Figure out my life goals
7. Do 21 push-ups without stopping
8. Cook a 5 course meal - by myself!
9. Get a job offer I want
10. Pass my driving test
11. Spend a day photographing the London life
12. Become fluent in German
13. Volunteer a day at a retirement home
14. Teach a ballet class
15. Go to a music concert
16. Get my weight to 55kg (current weight: 44kg - updated 9th Jan)
17. Publish an article in the university newspaper
18. Set-up my own website
19. Write a novel (more than 50000 words)
20. Track my family's ancestry
21. Sell a piece of art

And I have decided to add a bonus in case I am unable to so any of these, or if I finish early:

   22. Go on a speed date

I will continue to update this blog on my journey to achieve my 21 aims before September! Wish me luck :)
