Since 2011 when I turned 20 there has been some form of list on my blog containing things I’d like to achieve before I’m 25, last year it had a small revamp before my 24th birthday as some of the stuff on there just didn’t reflect who I was anymore. I kept all of the things I’d already achieved as obviously they’d been important to me at some point, but I changed a few things around to better suit me.

Just a side note of the goal of getting a tattoo, I’ve crossed it off even though I don’t have one yet because it‘s booked in and I’m actually having it done the day after my birthday so it’s more or less been achieved!
And the final goal to explain it number 14, letting go of fear and just doing things. This is in progress as there’s still a few things I’d like to do but fear and nerves are getting in the way, I’m definitely working on this though and slowly making improvements.
In all I’m pretty pleased that I’ve achieved all of the list apart from one thing. I guess that‘s goodbye to the goals before 25 page on my blog now. In it’s place I think I’m going to be creating a bucket list so expect to see a post about that in a few weeks.
