I realized something this week, I've been on hiatus. Not only from blogging, but from life, too. January has a way of making me way too introverted for my own good...I go to work, I come home and repeat the same every day, every week. Not the best way to be living. So I decided, its time to make myself accountable to all of you (hi mom and grandma...I'm sure you're the only ones reading this!!!) and post my 25x25. My half-birthday was a week ago, so I now have just under six months to complete the following 25 goals, activities, and self-imposed dares before I turn the big 2-5. Here they are (in no particular order)...
1. Go a whole month without buying any clothes. or shoes. or makeup.
2. Use my passport.
3. Use my new gym pass. Regularly. Like at least twice a week :)
4. Learn to love my church calling :) I have two. Love one, hate one.
5. Finally finish "1776."
6. Run 25 miles...heck, why not bump it up to 26.2 and run a marathon!
7. Go to the Maine Avenue Fish Market...so I can quit driving by and thinking "that looks cool."
8. Find my signature scent...preferably not at the fish market :)
9. Read the BoM. (again...I've read it before, don't worry!)
10. Visit the Hillwood Estate
11. Grow my own herbs. To pay homage to my farmer father.
12. Create a work of art...that's actually good enough to display.
13. Apply to grad school.
14. Go to the Congressional Cemetery.
15. Make 25 new friends.
16. Dance again. Country. Line. Ballroom. Whatever.
17. Take a cooking class.
18. Become a morning person.
19. Eat at the Shake Shack in NYC.
20. Find the best cupcake in DC.
21. Make a budget and stick to it.
22. Go bungee jumping and/or sky diving.
23. See a show at Ford's Theater.
24. Become a better parallel-parker.
25. Get my family to come visit me!!!
Lots of these adventures are going to require friends...any takers?!?

Wise Words...
"There isn't anyone you couldn't love once you've heard their story." ~ Mary Lou Kownacki
"Don't wait for tomorrow. Don't wait for the right job, the right house, the right salary, the right dress size. Be happy today. Be happy now...one thing I know for certain: the time we have here goes by far too quickly. Don't waste any more time sitting on the bench watching life pass you by. "~Joseph B. Wirthlin
"I wake up every morning determined both to change the world and have one heck of a good time. It makes planning the day a little difficult." ~E.B. White
"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles." ~Audrey Hepburn
"For all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these, 'It might have been'." ~John Greenleaf Whittier

what a good idea. i should make a list soon... as for your list, allow me to help you with some:
20. Best Buns in Shirlington.
Hope this helps :)
I am MORE than willing to help with #19. In fact, if you need - I can make frequent trips and sample each shake so you know which one is best when you get here...
good for you Kami!
(by the way, I read your blog!)
Wow! What a list! Good luck! And I read your blog.
im not your mom and i read! and i wish i was good enough to have a list... other than a grocery list or cleaning list! good for you!
LOVE LOVE LOVED this post! You are so flippin cute it makes me sick! It looks like things are going great for you. You are one ambitious girl...I love everything on your list!:) Good Luck Chicka!:) Miss ya!
I'll be in NYC by the the end of May/beginning of June, so we'll still have a month, so save one for me! (Not the bungee jumping one)
This is a really good idea! I love this idea!!
Hi Princess #1 Really liked your list. Hopefully we can help with #25 and #7. Don't know if #1 and 18 are really possible for you!!!:)jk. I will talk to you soon. Love you lots!
Oh! I need to finish 1776 too! It's just been sitting by my bed waiting for me! You can come swing dancing with Jon and I anytime (it would force us to get out and do it!), and I would totally take a cooking class with you! You're so dang cute. I love that you always have goals in life. Miss you!
