Onto the list....Now, this list was written before I was even accepted for the PGDE course, so realistically it's been impossible to complete the whole thing - for both financial reasons and the lack of spare time. I did edit my list slightly after getting accepted, because I knew expensive trips to Disney etc, would be out of the question, but to be honest i'm totally ok with the fact that I've only completed a small portion of my list. The point of the list was basically just to identify things I wanted to learn, experience or try, or goals I wanted to achieve, but it was all very personal to me, I wasn't doing it for anyone else. One of my goals was to leave my job, and on the updated list, to complete the PGDE, and I have to be honest, if those were the only ones I had done I would be happy, because those are the ones that would change my life, and also be the biggest achievement for me!
I have about a month and a half before I turn 30, so I may manage to squeeze a few more in, but I'm away on holiday for 2 weeks (which ticks off another 1!) and then preparing to move house, so the list is likely to stay as it is...
