30 Things I Have Done
I already told you about some things I haven't done yet (or hope to never do) so I thought it was time to reflect on some of the things I have done in these (almost) 30 years. As with the things I haven't done - I am proud of many of the things I've done and not as proud of others.
I have...
1. Been in love
2. Gotten married
3. Become a mother
4. Given birth naturally and at home
5. Sustained two lives on my breast milk alone
(okay - I got all of the no brainers out of the way. Now this is going to get tricky)
6. Read all of the Twilight books... twice
7. Practically memorized the FRIENDS series
8. Cheated on a boyfriend
9. Been out of the country
10. Owned a home
11. Been on a cruise
12. Been to both Disneyland and Disneyworld
13. Seen Paul McCartney in concert
14. Been in over 5 plays (I can't even remember how many I've actually been in...)
15. Sang karaoke
16. Auditioned for a movie and a commercial
17. Had tubes in my ears 3 times
18. Swam with dolphins
19. Swam with sting rays
20. Met 2 people from The Real World
21. Crocheted a hat, scarf and blanket
22. Had a beach campfire
23. Swam in the ocean
24. Slept out under the stars
25. Collected unemployment
26. Gotten my belly button pierced
27. Lived in New York (upstate)
28. Played basketball on a team (I kept that bench so damn cozy)
29. Lost a friend
30. Soothed a crying baby to sleep
Man, this makes me want to write a true bucket list! There's SO many things I'd love to do that aren't on this list.
Tell me, what have you done and what would you like to do?

30 Things I've Never Done
Posting my first post as I recall the past 3 decades that is my life. This post should be EASY. There is SO much I've never done. There's a ton I'd love to do, and a ton I'd die happily never having done.
So.. here goes. I've never:
1. Been to Europe
2. Gotten a tattoo
3. Skydived
4. Had stitches
5. Broken a bone
6. Sold something I've made
7. Seen a shooting star
8. Owned a bird
9. Driven cross country
10. Successfully juggled
11. Ridden a zip line
12. Run in an organized run/race
13. Danced a solo dance in public (but my living room has seen quite the show on a few occasions)
14. Lived more than 1 hour away from my parents
15. Watched a sun rise on purpose (like, got myself out of bed to go see the sun rise)
16. Been to New York City
17. Seen Gone With the Wind. Or Casablanca for that matter.
18. Donated blood
19. Seen Mt. Rushmore
20. Had major surgery
21. Had a hangover (though I have been drunk, so I suppose I'll just consider myself lucky)
22. Had a cup of black coffee
23. Had a daughter
24. Ridden in a horse drawn carriage
25. Entered a pie eating (or baking) contest
26. Seen Garth Brooks perform live
27. Parasailed
28. Read a book by Jane Austen (although I do believe I was supposed to in either High School or College. Totally didn't though)
29. Had a garden
30. Had hair extensions
Woo - there is a lot out there that I would love to do! Also, many things I'm grateful for never having experienced. Next up... 30 things I HAVE done!

Closing out on the 30th year.
I have a little over 2 months until I turn 30.
I've been doing some self reflection as this big birthday approaches and I thought it would be fun to write down some things about me. What I know to be true about myself right now, after almost 30 years. I'm going to do this in a series. First I'll tell you 30 things I've never done. Then, 30 things I HAVE done. Next, I'll do three posts, each one covering a decade of my life - hopefully including pictures from each one.
How exciting does this sound to you all?! Haha!! I just realized how much I would be posting about myself and how I was thinking how interesting that would be. Then I realized that maybe you all don't want to know every little thing about me. Ah, well. It's all part of my reflecting about where these past 30 years have gotten me. So.. stay tuned and enjoy getting to know me a little better!
