Every year around this time, I start thinking about my birthday. Born on August 11th, I’m said to be outgoing, self-assured and have a tremendous zest for life. All those are traits of a Leo and I suppose I agree with them. 😉 Well today I want to share 10 Bucket List Items with you – I guess that zest for life thing is kicking in, right?
My 28th year will be amazing. I’ve worked really hard this year and I’ve achieved many goals earlier than expected which is indeed a blessing. While I’m extremely grateful and thankful for everything I’ve accomplished, I’ve missed being spontaneous and trying new things. Sometimes we get so caught up in making a living that we forget to make a life. I read and posted that quote the other day on Instagram and realized that in my 28th year, my main goal is to enjoy life to the fullest. That’s why some of the things on my list are fun and silly, while others are more “serious” –  it’s a good balance. 😉 OK, enough chit chat…let’s take a peek at some of these bucket list items, shall we….
1. Go to a concert (with one of my favorite artists) and sit front row.Â
2. Go zip lining. (this will help me overcome my slight fear of heights)Â
3. Train for (and run) a 5K.
4. Complete a few DIY projects.Â
5. Go to Essence Music Fest.Â
6. Go to a shooting range.Â
7. Get a bikini wax. (DONE)
8. Plan a spontaneous trip and just…GO!Â
9. Go on a tour of the White House. (SCHEDULED)Â
10. Complete the Daily Bread online bible course.Â
So tell me, what do you think of these bucket list items? Pretty reasonable, huh? What about you – what are some things on your birthday bucket list? Let me know!
Thanks for reading and I hope you’ve been inspired to think about more ways you can enjoy and live life to the fullest! Until tomorrow, be blessed and be safe…XO!
P.S. Don’t forget to link up your recent OOTD over on my Personal Style Linkup!
