When I was in Std6, the matrics looked like middle aged women. At 18, all I wanted to be was 21. At 25 I had a quarter life crises and now....well now I'm just depressed.
There is so much I want to achieve/do before I am 30:
- I want to live in both Turkey and Tuscany for at least 6 months a pop.
- I want to attend a TED talk.
- I want to learn to snow board and I want to have the opportunity to practice till I rock at it.
- I would like to do a refresher course in French. (Will come in handy when I live in Tuscany and want to nip across to France for some croissants.)
- I want to learn to speak conversational Xhosa. It is shocking that I struggle to greet my neighbour in her mother tongue.
- I want to take up sculpting again and I would also like to be able to paint something that I would actually consider hanging in my house.
- I want to apply the Pareto principle to everything I do.
- I want to play more golf, take up mountain biking and be more fit over all. (i.e. I want to look like Giselle Bunchen)
- I want to spend more time with family and friends.
- I would like to do a cooking course and while I am at it, learn more about wine. The former in an attempt to avoid poisoning my future kids, the latter because I too want to smell banana, vanilla, wet dog and burnt almonds when drinking wine and impress my friends while doing it.
- I would love to do a flip over the Cape Peninsula in a helicopter. And not just a 15 minute flip, a loooong one that feels like it lasts for hours.
- I want to fly first class and in a lear jet.
- Believe it or not, I want to meet Oprah.
Here's to my last night of being 26... *sniff*
