30 before 30: Update! - Café Con Monica

Its Monday again…ooye! I didn’t do anything exciting this weekend, being very strict with clean eating and working part time on the weekends I am pretty much dead to the world by Friday and can’t be assed to do a damn thing.

Its starting to get HOT here and I am not sure I like it. Its like a very humid, disgusting soup bowl hot. Haha hopefully that explains it well.

So since I have no amazing weekend photos to show you I decided it was time to update my 30 before 30. Its time I get to work on some more of them but still I have made some progress! I also might be making some changes to the list soon, things have changed a bit since I wrote it 🙂

30 Before 30

~~25. Have a whole spa day~~ **Took a whole day in Thailand when I was living there to get a mani/pedi, a few massages and a lay on the beach. PERFECT!

26. Learn how to sew/use a machine well enough to make a dress

27. Get a gun license and own my own gun

28. Learn how to play the piano

29. Read the bible everyday for a year

30. Forgive and Forget **also a work in progress!

Well…I’ve crossed out 5 of 30 and I still have 2 years to go. I think I might be on the right track. Although a part of me wants to change #4 since I realized I don’t really care if that happens by 30.

Might change it to:

(*4) Visit more places in the US

I have been traveling around Asia like crazy and after meeting lots of foreigners who would love to go to the US I realized there is a lot I have yet to see in my own country.
