The other day I was thinking about how old I was and for a minute I forgot how old I was. I had to ask Tyler how old he was since I know he’s three months older than me. He looked at me like I was stupid for asking and told me we both were 24. I swear… no one ever asks me how old I am anymore. We’re not in high school anymore. We have online profiles that shares our age and almost every blog has a “about me” section. No one ever asks, “ASL” anymore (Age, Sex, Location).

Four months after I turn 24 it just really hit me that I’m twenty-four and will be 25 this year. So I’ve come up with a list that I would like to do before I turn thirty.

1. Lose all the weight I need to lose!
