27 Things

You all know I like making lists, so here’s a fun one! I read a good blog called Yes and Yes, and Sarah, the writer of said blog, has a list of 31 things she’d like to achieve in her 30th year before she turns 31. Here’s my list of the 27 things I want to do before my 27th birthday on January 10th, 2012.

These things range from the ridiculous to the extreme and right back down to the mediocre.

  1. Get my long anticipated foot artwork.

  2. Run my first 10km race.
