My last HURRAH as a teenager :)

So my teenage years are coming to a close. I have only 72 more days to enjoy the excuse of being a teen before I am plagued by the official title of a "more mature adult." How horrible, I know. So, being inspired by Lisa and her friends lists before they turn 30, I have made my own list of 20 things I want to accomplish before my teenage years come to an end and I turn the ripe old age of 20 years old. So, Here I go... (these might be subject to change)


1.) Run a 5k (3.107 miles) under 25 minutes

2.) Do 30 push-ups straight

3.) Shoot a gun

4.) Fit into size 7/8 jeans

5.) Read the entire book of Mormon straight through from beginning to end (non-stop)

6.) Eat some strange sea food (like crab or octopus)

7.) Oil paint/ paint pictures to decorate my apartment

8.) Give blood for the first time

9.) Go to a Utah National Park (Arches)

10.) Sing a solo in front of a singles ward

11.) Run 13 miles straight without stopping

12.) Exercise every day straight for 1 month (excluding Sundays)

13.) Host a murder mystery dinner

14.) Serve a 5 course meal

15.) Get a pedicure

16.) Get a kiss in the rain

17.) Dress up and go to a fun dance/club

18.) Learn and sing a song on the guitar

19.) Do 5 different nice things for others (anonymously)

20.) Start writing a children's novel


Hopefully 72 days is enough time to accomplish all these things! I will keep you updated on how I am doing :p

You should shoot a pistol with .38 special ammo, that's the most fun I've ever had shooting targets (shotgun hurt my shoulder too much, but blowing up moving things like duck hunt was a plus)

We can take care of numbers 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 14, and 15 in July, if you're up to it! Have a girls night with your fam for the pedicure and crab, and you can follow us to Arches on our way back to AZ... We can paint with Grandma Bunker, you can make us all a yummy dinner... We can have a long early morning run for some more of that girl-bonding-time... That's 7 down in a weekend! If you want to!

Hey girl! 20 years old..huh. Man and you call me "old...hag" LOL. A few of these goals sound familiar... Maybe I should fly out to Utah and we could double team the ones we have in common :)

For some reason I thought that May came after July... That sort of defeats the purpose. :(

But, we can still do them!!!
