um i have a list. its really rather....dull...compared to urs.
whatevaaaaaaaa
can i live with you when you get that studio apt?
That's a great list. I'll tell you this, though: I'm about to turn 30, and maybe 8 or 10 years ago, I had a similar list. I came a far cry from accomplishing all the tasks there, but what I did realize is that there's plenty of time after 30 to finish the rest.
Hey, thanks for the shout out. So pumped that you have a List of your own!!
Love, love the message in a bottle. That's all sorts of romantic. Straight up.
But no Internet for a week? I. Would. Die. I respect your gumption though. Let us know how that goes... although you probably won't.. or can't.. because you won't be online. See, that's a hard one.
Anyway, looking forward to seeing these bad boys get checked off.

I am a list person like this too. Lists and lists and then checking them off one by one over and over.
31. Write an interesting blog.
Good luck with that.
Go sand boarding - I have never heard about that! But I need to do it! It's going to be on my list too!
A week without internet? I won't even put it on my list - mission impossible.
You made a good list - impressive.
i am writing a gratitude journal everynight as a blog. gotta update. i love the hot air balloon ride and sending out your secrets in a bottle. did you see message in a bottle movie?
MC: What's the coolest thing on it?
SM: Aw you should still post it!
EmptyWords: Is it hard? I'm thinking of trying it this winter
Cheryl: Sandboarding is the coolest thing... its basically snowboarding but in the sandy desert. Let totally find a desert and go!
AL: Thanks =D
CA: Fo sho sista. I wish I wasn't broke... we could have gotten a studio apartment right now.. sigh.
Pilgrimchick: You're right. I guess I put 30 because I hoped to have experienced a lot so that when 30 came around I'd have even bigger and better things to do. We'll see what happens when I get there!
Reinventingsandyb: Your welcome! Yea, we'll see how the internet one works...I sort of live online. Literally.
Tom Bailey: I love the feeling of crossing something out...it's almost a stress reliever.
The Crap Blog Detective: We try.
Miss Always Carried Away: Join Cheryl and I =D
MarjnHomer: Its funny; I've never actually seen Message in a Bottle.
