First things first, thank you to everyone who emailed, called, texted or messaged me with suggestions for my 'Year of 23' list. Over the last few days, I received over 150 fantastic and daring suggestions. Today, I managed to scale the list down. In celebration of my 23rd birthday and with the help of friends, I have compiled the list above. For every year I have been alive, there is a goal I must complete by my 24th birthday. If you do not see your suggestion on this list, be sure to check out my previous post, Dreams & Goals, which is an extended bucketlist of goals I would like to complete in my lifetime. I would highly appreciate the support and inspiration from my readers to stay on track. 23 | History in the Making.
