This is interesting.
Not since high school have I really set a goal*. I mean, I'm all for a vision board, but to actually visualize my goals and put them on paper...? this is hard! I'm more of a 'go with the flow' type and end up where I figure I'm supposed to be, nah mean?
I'm not sure if I can come up with 30 things. Or maybe I can, but I think they are superfluous and not really worth mentioning... or, I do have goals but don't see why I have to reach them by 30. Spread 'em out! Make life interesting!
How bout this: I make a list of goals. and if I want to do it within the next 2.6 years, I'll bold it.
get married
have twins
travel to Japan (preferably Ky.oto)
get another tat
live in another state for a year
earn my Masters in something education related (looking at reading ed and bilingual ed)
earn my Bachelors in Art History
earn my Bachelors in Photography
drive across the country (I-10 West, jet-set back)
drive back across the country (I-95 North, I-90 West, I- something east, I-95 South)
buy myself a SERIOUS piece of jewelry
stay in a hostel overseas (for example, I want to ball on a budget in Italy)
go to Brazil
go to Chile with my favorite aunt and cousin
go back to Ghana as a tourist and not a dual citizen
go back to London as an adult
have an all girls trip with my homies (even if it just NYC)
pseudo ball till I fall in Vegas (I'm not a gambler so I'll spend money on shows, a luxurious suite, and food)
eat at a Michelin rated restaurant
to have 5 figs in my bank account on a VERY consistent basis
I think that's about it.
* my only TRUE goal in LIFE was to get the prom dress of my dreams. I saw it in a Seventein mag my freshman year; cut it out and had it on my wall. I wanted a green/gold A-line cami dress with a beaded bodice. the dress I got was the blue/purple version. I had it in the house for TWO YEARS! Mommy kept it in her closet so I wouldn't try it on every chance I got and get tired of it by the time my prom came around!! LOLOLOL!
I still have that dress. I still love it. I even wore it in the pageant I was in in 2004.
Damn, I still have my senior prom dress too! Best believe I wore that thing to Freshman Ball at HU AND APhiQ's Champagne Sips in 2004 and 2006!!! (I cut it to make it knee length for the latter event. re-use and recycle, people!!)
Damn. you have no idea how hard it is to find a nikki livas formal dress from 1997
3 returned the favor:
Stace... I know you love the dress... but it's SAD that that's your only true goal in life!! GET IT TOGETHER!!! 30 is a ridiculous number... particularly when we're so close! (you more so than I.) i'm straight on all that driving. i want to have twins too but don't know that i'd categorize it as a goal since i don't have a lot of control over that. i def. want to do some more internat'l (non-European other than Italy/Spain/England) travel. travel PERIOD! LET'S GET IT!!
I remember both of those dresses. While they were fab, I'm with Jameil...it cant be your only true goal in life - lol.
As for the others, aside from the twins part, they all sound fab. Especially the cross country drive and getting a fab piece of jewelry. Oh, and the marriage one - but I'm sure that's cause I'm a newlywed and am all pro-marriage these days :)
Is that the dress your friend wore in Atlanta last month? LOL
