40 Before 40

In late January 2014 I was inspired to write a list of things I want to accomplish in my lifetime.
At first, it was a 35 before 35 list.
Seeing as 30 has crept up on me pretty quickly, I decided to expand it to 40.
Which also means I need to come up with a few more items.
Some of the first several items are already crossed out because I started this list a while ago and have since completed.


1. Finish my Masters degree (hopefully by the year 2020 I'll be done!
5. Go white water rafting
6. Go to all 50 states (airport layovers/driving through don't count) 23 out of 27
7. Visit the Eiffel Tower
8. Get married
9. Have kids
10. Go dancing in Spain
11. Go to Denali National Park (I have lived in Alaska my entire life, minus several years during and after college, and never once have I visited Denali. *tisk tisk*)
12. Reach my goal weight 55 pounds to go! EEEK that's a lot of weight to lose!
13. Visit Israel
14. Consistent massages for pain relief (herniated disc) and pampering
15. Visit Santorini, Greece
16. Visit the Coliseum in Rome
17. Ride in a helicopter

25. Eat at a Michelin Star rated restaurant
26. Walk the red carpet for an event
27. Cook (or bake) my way through an entire cookbook

31. Get CPR certified
