25!

Tomorrow I turn 25. I'm excited and think it's going to be a fabulous year!

I want to spend my day being as kind as I can and helping others have an amazing day! I want to have lots of fun with people I love.

I also remembered a blog post my friend had written of 24 things she had wanted to do when she was 24.I want to do that. So here it is, my list of 25 things I want to do while I am 25:

1. Volunteer at least three times in the community
2. Be brave
3. Host a dinner party
4. Take horseback riding lessons
5. Visit or make specific plans to visit Nashville
6. Go to Disneyland
7. Perform on my flute
8. Improve my piano skills to the next book level
9. Hike more often
10. Send snail mail to at least eight people (snail mail is the best!)
11. Participate in my classes in graduate school (rather than trying to just be a listener)
12. Do well in my classes in graduate school
13. Learn Spanish
14. Go to the temple at least once month
15. Write thank you notes (messages, emails, etc.) every week
16. Read
17. Take pictures
18. Learn to cook at least 5 new recipes
19. Be me
20. Even though I'll be busy starting in the fall with school, make sure I have time to be there for friends and to help
21. Overcome a bad habit
22. Audition for a musical
23. Love more
24. Go skiing!
25. Keep my room and kitchen clean

I may change a few of these, but I am so excited! Those last two were hard to think of, but once I thought of them, they felt perfect.
