I always have a hard time
on my birthday. I use it as a day to beat myself up by evaluating my life.
I got really sad this
year. I only had one person call me (thanks Emily!) and I actually used the
phrase “I’m 27 and I’ve accomplished NOTHING!”… I’m sure the 7-hour-long drive
home and being stressed out of my mind didn’t help the situation either…
So I’m going to make a
list. 30 things I want to do before I’m 30.
Here we go!
(3) Do a Triathlon
(5) Take a dance class PLANNING - HONEYMOON 11.2015
(8) See the Northern Lights
(11) Relearn how to play
the piano
(15) Go to a continent
that I haven’t been to before (South America, Australia, or Antarctica) PLANNING - HONEYMOON 11.2015
(18) Get rid of my
snowboard and boots DONE - (AFTER 30TH) 10.2015
(21) See the Gettysburg Battlefield
(23)
See another Broadway show
(24)
Dress up and go to a 5 Star Restaurant DONE - (AFTER 30TH) 10.2015
(25)
See another one of the newly appointed 7 Wonders of the World (Taj Mahal,
Christ the Redeemer, Great Wall of China, Machu Picchu, or Petra) or one of the
13 finalists (Alhambra, Angkor Wat, Kiyomizu-dera, Moai, Neuschwanstein, Red Square,
Sydney Opera House, or Timbuktu) PLANNING - HONEYMOON 11.2015
(27)
Bungee jump or skydive
(28)
See the Cahokia Mounds DONE - (AFTER 30TH) 10.2015
(30) Forgive and love
I’m hoping that if I
finish this list then I won’t be so depressed on my 30th birthday.
*Deep breath*
**UPDATE: The ones in red I was not able to complete before my 30th birthday so I added them to my 40 Before 40 List. The ones in yellow I have not done yet but I will be doing them by the end of 2015 so I will not be adding them to my 40 Before 40 List.**

I will admit I took thirty pretty hard. I remember telling Jeff I was a useless baby maker. Don't be sad you have had LOTS of adventures.
I hope you get to conquer your list. Next time you are in OC all us girl cousin should do a Burke Williams Spa day!!
I love this list! I hope you do everything and 100 more awesome things.
Thirty does seem kind of scary, 27 has been pretty good to me so far! I support you visiting family in Omaha, it's a great city!
Awww I would have called you! Hats one thing I admire my dad, when he became bishop he decided to call every ward member on their birthday no matter what. I've seen him do it on vacation, when he was in the hospital, anywhere. I wish I would do this. I love your list, makes me want to make my own list, thanks for inspiring.love you court!
Can't wait to see pics of you doing all these awesome things! :)
This list is awesome! And if it makes you feel better, I always think, "man, Courtney does cool stuff..."
If you do Gettysburg you can totally stay with us! We live a little over an hour from it, which is kind of annoying. It's always been one of my favorite places on earth, though! I love battlefields.
Northern Lights are on my list too, must be aaaamazing
Look how many things you have to look forward to! And just thought you should know that I look to you as an example of how to accomplish things in life! You've done so much! You're awesome Court! Glad to see that many of these things on the list could possibly include your lovely friend Emily ;)... anytime you want to go on a spontaneous trip... call me... I'll be the first to join in on some fun!

I'm sorry you didn't have a great birthday. But I'm excited about your list! I made a 30 list, but yours is WAY more impressive!! Good job, and good luck getting them done! That is pretty intense!
