30 before 30

On my 26th birthday, earlier this year, I decided to take up on a recent goal-making trend. I created a 30 before 30 list: a set of 30 goals I aim to accomplish by my 30th birthday. 

While the prospect of attempting so many things is a bit scary, I'm up for the challenge of pushing myself to conquer 30 whole bright shiny and new tasks!

Here is my big scary list!
