There are several things that anyone who knows me very well will tell you.
1. I like lists-- rather compulsive about list making to be exact
2. I love random adventures
3. I REALLY love birthdays
So, I wanted to do something special to celebrate my 25th birthday and so I have taken suggestions from guests at my birthday party and from loved ones and compiled my list of 25 things to do over the course of the year. Just so you know, the suggestions ranked from mildly humorous to wildly offensive. I got a good laugh that is for sure. God bless the strange and wonderful people who I surround myself with! Over the next year I will blog and chronicle accomplishing these tasks on my list.
Since I am officially 25-- as of a couple of minutes ago I will share this list-- These items are in no particular order.
25 Things to do while 25!
1. Kiss a stranger
2. Try out for a play/musical
3. Go on a blind date/try speed dating
4. Dye/Highlight my hair
5. Zipline in Branson
6. Paint a piece of art work for my house
7. Get CPR certified
8. Pick up the tab for a stranger- double points if it is someone in need
9. Crash a wedding
10. Get a Brazilian wax/Double points if I scream Kelly Clarkson while its being done.
11. Visit another country/Go see Meagan
12. Try out for a reality show
13. Go on a float trip

15. Go skinny dipping
