30 Before 30

Hola after a really long time! I took a self imposed break from many things including blogging for a while! Now I am back because I wanted to 🙂

I started writing (later termed blogging) just out of my interest to talk about things that interest and inspire me. For some reason, at some point I felt, I was forcing this on myself and I did not like it. I wanted to write only when I feel for it. Well, I am not sure why I am saying this, but hold on to this thought! Take a break when things you like/love are turning into an obligation!

I had so many things to write about but sometimes one needs that spark of motivation. I happened to run into this post on my instagram and visited Pink Chai Living. As I was reading other posts, I came across this and instantly wanted to write something. I have always loved my birthday and keep counting days for it. I am more excited about having another birthday rather than growing a year old. 🙂 And this year, being the last of my twenties, I had all the more reason to set some interesting goals for myself.

So here you go! 30 things I want to do before 30 (At least before I complete 30) To start on a positive and motivating note, I will start the list with two things, I already achieved 🙂

1. Learn car driving (I finally did it in 2015)
2. Own a home (“We” did it in 2016)
3. Go on a date with my husband to Disney land/world. (This has been on my to-do list since almost my 9th grade :-p)
4. Learn to make a fondant cake.
5. Celebrate my dance school annual day (Been almost 3 years of teaching, wanting to do one for a while now)
6. Act in a short film
7. Get my US bar license
8. Get consistent with blogging and discipline myself.. (Well at least 3 blogs a month for at least 3 months!)
9. Learn to use my camera properly (Not sure if I can already call it photography)
10. Bake the perfect bread!
11. Go on all girls trip 🙂
12. Plan a baby!
13. Run a marathon
14. Give up sugar in coffee and tea (For now, I refrain from sugar only in my Starbucks coffee)
15. Visit Chidambaram Nataraja temple and dance in front of the lord (This also means I get to go to India very soon..Yayy!!! #AaravLove) 
16. Color my hair..at least few streaks
17. Sky Diving ( My hands shiver as I think of this and exactly why I want to do this. Overcome my fear of heights)
18. Spend one complete day with just my self.. no second person, no electronics 🙂
19. Be able to to 108 Suryanamaskarams.
20. Own a Louis Vitton bag (I was resisting to have materialistic wishes… well, lets keep it for when I am 40!)
21. Start a new venture (well the one on my mind may be)
22. Adopt a pet (Yes, Mr. A is going to be surprised to hear this)
23. Make time for a social cause to work for with dedication (Not work when I have spare time) 
24. Get a small little tattoo
25. Write a story ( Well, ya.. everyone has a story to tell!)
26. Take a 30 day challenge (I have started many..but never really stuck to it)
27. Learn to make good salads and dressings!
28. Get into real reading habit (Just coz, cultivating habits may be difficult later!!!) 
29. Not think twice for the fear of other’s opinion/judgement (Yes, I happen to do it so many times and time to change it!!)
30. Finish the above 29 🙂

I just pushed myself to make some ridiculous (may be not) to-do list! Lets see what I do 🙂
