Catch 27

So on my retreat course last week, one of the exercises we were asked to do on our own time was to make a list of 27 thing we’d like to do before we die. I don’t know why the number was 27 but here’s my list, and I’m adding to it.

1. Buy a world ticket and just GO. No itinerary.
2. Backpack in Europe.
3. Um, get married one day.
4. Have babies many, many years from now.
5. Write a book and get it published.
6. Own my own private counseling practice.
7. Survive Graduate School.
8. Do some sort of fashion or interior design course/internship.
9. Teach a psychology class (NERD ALERT)
10. Learn to do front crawl (Never have been able to coordinate my arms and legs in such a way)
11. Give up chocolate for year.
12. Take a photography course specifically for wedding photography.
13. Work non-profit.
14. Spend time working in a psychiatric ward or rehab center.
15. Read 50 books in a year.
16. Travel a minimum of one week per year (Not necessarily a tropical place, just getting away).
17. Buy a house.
18. Keep a journal.
19. Adopt.
20. Walk the labyrinth at the Chartres Cathedral in France.
