30x30

I must admit that I only have about 15 items in my wish list when I hit 30. But somehow, something crept in and made me want to accomplish a lot of milestones in my life before I hit 31. Around summer of this year, I revisited the list and doubled it. Talk about putting a lot of pressure upon oneself!

I am still in the process of writing down my 35x35. I have only written seven. I hope that before summer next year, I will be able to complete it, send it to high heavens and see what happens.
