30 before 30



i've just spent the better part on sunday afternoon in bed (i must invest in a comfortable sofa immediately) reading the rest of the hunger games and thinking about how skilled of an archer i could be. i saw the avengers last night, so i'm guessing it's both katniss and hawkeye who are sparking this question. i was thinking this potentially new found archery skill could become a part of a sort of bucket list of things to do before my birthday next year. 30 before 30.

now i know 30 isn't exactly a scary age, and 40 is the new 30 or something like that. but for me, i'm amazed at myself for having such trouble believing that i'm actually going to be 30 next year. while i know i've had a good life, travelled a lot, bought a lot, not had to kill another 21 people for the sake of survival or save the world, but i feel as if i haven't done enough. that i'm restless in a sense. so i figure a 30 before 30 would be a great way to inspire something inside me.

i've been perusing some lists on the internet and some, such as this one are filled with simple wishes such as visiting family or donating to charities. i think i will add some simple wishes on my 30 before 30, but i want something more. something bigger.

i might start here for inspiration. or here.

short and sweet

hello there.

i was going to make my first post back about my holiday, but i've decided to be lazy (typical me...) and just post a picture of my new impromptu haircut i received on tuesday afternoon at distracted.
