This started out as a Facebook Post and I realized I had WAY TOO MUCH to say (but what else is new…)
Last year on my birthday I realized I lived the last year in a drudge. Nothing in life was particularly happy for me – jobs, boyfriend, house, life… I decided it was time for a change – 3 months of hell ensued– but as always, I emerged the butterfly.
I started the year of Becky and it has been by far the best year of my life so far. I decided that instead of letting the year of Becky come to a close in December I was going to extend it with a little 30 by 30 challenge.
I found an old Bucket List from high school. Most of them I was able to cross off. I had made a list in high school of things that, at the time, I thought were EPIC and things that through an entire life I should be able to achieve. I crossed most of them off.
It’s time to step it up.
I’ve decided to make it an EPIC year leading up to my 30th birthday. 1 October kicked off Becky’s 30 by 30. I’m single, no kids, no pets. It’s time to keep living my life and doing everything and anything that makes me happy, and everything that I’ve made excuses about for a long time.
The full list is below. Some I came up with to keep me learning new things and pushing myself this year. Most are just for fun. Some are to make sure I don’t spend ALL my money on fun this year.
