24 before 25

When I look back over the last year I feel like it went by WAY too fast and I feel like I didn't accomplish anything. Of course I did a lot, like get a job and live on my own, but I don't want the next year to go by without accomplishing some more personal goals I've had on my life to-do list. This is a time in my life where I want to make the most out of every second. Hence, the creation of my 24 by 25 list below. This is a list of 24 things I want to try to accomplish before I turn 25. Some are pretty aggressive goals ( like become a master yogi? Really? Who do I think I am?) but I hope the list serves as a reminder to take advantage of my free time and constantly do things that will better my well being.

24 before 25

1. learn how to sew (and finally make my sister that yoga bag shes been begging for)
2. get better at updating my blog i'm excited to say i've been updating it every day!
3. learn about graphic design
4. learn web design
5. invest in photoshop or lightroom finally got lightroom, and i LOVE it!
6. do at least one photo project each month
7. become a master yogi (or at least get to where I can touch my toes)
8. shadow a wedding photographer
9. be more adventurous with my cooking (or maybe just learn how to cook..)
10. learn how to knit and make a scarf
11. reteach myself the guitar and be able to play "blackbird" again

22. expand my camera gear collection to include at least one more lense

brilliant idea borrowed from wit & whistle
