I suppose one of the biggest things to have happened to me since the last time I could be bothered to post is that I turned 29. A year closer to 30 and a year closer to my inevitable untimely death and the tender age of 50. That aside, I had a nice birthday, I got a weighted hula hoop that I wanted, mum made me a mini afternoon tea which, of course, was all 0 smart points on one's birthday, followed by a meal out for tapas and gin.
all 0sp. amazing!
So, now is a good as time as any to check out my 30 before 30 list and see how well I'm doing...
Not only did I get a permanent job I have since been promoted, but that's not technically started yet so I have yet to see that sweet, sweet cash flow increase.
2. Get to goal weight

4. Learn to cook at least five meals from scratch

11. Dye my hair pink
13. Have at least three months' salary in savings
technically this would be an ongoing thing with no set goal, but even I can tell that my SQL skills are so much better than they were when I started this list so, I'll give myself that.
15. Learn Python
16. Clear out belongings and try to live more minimalistically
17. Skydive
18. Learn lettering

23. Get a manicure
24. Take more photos
25. Relearn ukulele

27. Make and sell my own pin.
I went to a ragrugging workshop last November. Have I used it since? No. Did I technically learn a new craft? Yes.
29. Get a pet
30. Not get hospitalised again
that's what? 5/30? Yikes, I need to pick up the pace here guys. A few things I hope to cross off by the end of this year, like learning to drive and making five meals from scratch and I'll be seeing BTS in concert soon so that's very exciting.
Truth be told, I'm not 100% hopeful I'll cross off all thirty, I'm not sure I'll really get round to relearning the ukulele or getting better at swimming. At least it's more likely than something like "own property". Not in this economy.
