27 Before 28

Tomorrow I turn 27. It seems weird that I'm only going to be 3 years away from 30. I used to really look forward to turning 30, but I thought I'd be in a different place back then, before everything went awry. Anyway, I really like the whole concept of making a list of things to accomplish by my next birthday, so I've compiled a list of 27 little goals for myself.

1. Learn to sew from a pattern.
2. Get a teaching position
3. Make it back to London
4. Create and finish one craft/art project per week
5. Cook more
6. Cut my damn hair
7. Find a sewing desk
8. Spend more time with my Grandmother
9. Go to estate sales
10. Take small road trips around Texas
11. Take more photos
12. More Etsy sales
13. Possibly create a new Etsy page for my felt toys
14. Skype my British friends more
15. Spend more time playing with Penny
16. Go to the cinema
17. Spend more time listening to records
18. Buy the 2nd book in Sartre's Road to Freedom (I only have #1 (which I've read) and #3)
19. Go out with my friends more and be less of a homebody
20. Spend time on myself
21. Learn to cook new dishes
22. Take my mom out more
23. Finish writing the first quarter of my book
24. Get my family history down on paper
25. Get Netflix back
26. Buy new sheets
27. Keep up with my blog

Nothing too terribly exciting, but little things that I feel like I should do soonish.

Happy early birthday! This is a great list! I especially love #3 (London is my favorite place, ever) and #8. Thirty isn't so bad - I tried a 30 in 30 list last year for my birthday, but I didn't quite tick off all my items. Good luck to you!
