The List

Some of the things on my list have absolutely nothing to do with travel, but I want to live these next three years to the fullest and experience as much as I possibly can. We'll see what kinds of things I'll be able to do!

* What started as my 25 things to do by the time I turn 25 is now The List of things I hope to do in the near future, hopefully before I come home from Italy for good! I'm trying to only include things I have control over, rather than just everything I want to have happen to me ever. As much as I'd love to include "Win the lottery," "Live in Cinderella's Castle at Disney World," and "Recieve my Hogwarts acceptance letter," I'm trying to be realistic for what could actually be accomplished in the next few years. And I'm too old for Hogwarts.. I just have to wait until the Muggle Studies professor position opens up (heehee).

    Technically you can cross 33 as you already live in Milan and if you can accomplish 36 that means I must get my act together and accomplish it too...is just that I can´t seem to control it, whenever I am under stress or distracted (Like watching a movie or Reading) i nibble them like there is no tomorrow.

    I hope you cross check all of them or at least more tan 60%!
