30 Before 30 Updates & Revisions

I have to say, a lot changes in a couple of years, and it's been almost two years since I picked my original 30 before 30 list.  I was thinking about my 30 before 30 list and all the things I was supposed to have done before I turn 30 in the next year and 4 months-ish and wondering where my progress was.  So I pulled up my 30 before 30 list and to be honest, not a whole lot feels like it still applies.  So I've decided to take my old 30 before 30 list and tweak it a little bit.  I put an asterisk next to the things I've edited, and two asterisks next to things that are entirely new.

1. Go back to school.
2. Start writing a novel, and get at least half way through.*

30 before 30

I've seen so many people doing these goal lists with either the 30 before 30, or the 101 in 1001.  When I did the math the 1001 comes before 30, and I decided to go ahead and give myself until 30 to complete my goals.  The 30 Before 30 Project was created to help the passing of time as you see 30 daunting on that horizon and worry about time passing you by.  I know I still have 3 1/2 years til I'm 30, but still... Time does seem to start speeding up as you move into your late twenties so I want a little something extra to keep me going.  So here goes.  (For those of you over 30-check out the Happily Ever After Project which is run by the same lady.)
