25. 30. 35.

So I found a cure for the 'oh I'm growing up' freak out that had taken over me these past few days. I mean, I'd started to get an odd feeling in the pit of my stomach every time I'd think about the future. It seemed like an endless stretch of maturity and responsibility. EW. So I sat and spent an hour doing my most favourite thing ever - I made a list. But not just any list. This is the 25-30-35 list and it made me the happiest I've been these past few days! :D And here it goes (not in order of priority): 


BY THE TIME I TURN 25, I WANT TO:
  • Start taking dance classes again
  • Learn to cook food from three different types of cuisines
  • Go to Paris with Karthik
  • Learn Italian
  • Go to Italy and practice that Italian
  • Sponsor a kid's education
  • Get a fish pedicure
  • Finish my Masters
  • Go to Disneyland
  • Get red streaks in my hair
  • Own the perfect black dress and pair of heels
  • Get a tattoo


BY THE TIME I TURN 30, I WANT TO:
  • Go to Egypt and Turkey
  • Teach kids (what? I'm not so sure)
  • Learn how to read and write in Tamil
  • Get laser surgery on my eyes
  • Get a pet
  • Have kids


BY THE TIME I TURN 35, I WANT TO:
  • Write a book
  • Buy a house
  • Stop working full time


(Best part? This is 100% realistic and fiance approved. :D :D :D)

Ok we match on taking dance classes (er, for the first time), going to paris (not with your ka though, lol), streaks and tattoo, plus i wanna go to parc astérix. Ooooh, you wanna learn italian, next? Cool!!
And oh, i want egypt, lasik surgery and a pet, dog, preferably. And, omg write a book!!! This might have been MY list. I'll go make mine now, though. Why do you want to _stop_ working full time though? i'm confused.
ps: guess who?
