Today would have been my maternal grandmothers 93rd birthday. I owe so much of who I am to her. When I was a small child she lived with my family, she was always kind, never raised her voice and even told us shit wasn't a swear word, just not a very nice word we shouldn't use often. To sum it up, she was pretty much the coolest grandma ever, well her and my paternal grandmother are a tie.
As I reflected on birthdays and age I realized I am fast approaching my 25th birthday - quarter life crisis - I will soon be a quarter of a century old. There is still so much I want to do and go and learn and experience but as I look back I'm proud of my accomplishments and where I'm headed.
So in order to take life by the horns I've decided to start this little project called 25 weeks to 25 years. For the 25 weeks leading up to my 25th birthday I want to do things I've never done before, go to places I've never been, and learn skills I don't currently have.
So giant universe this is where you come into play... I have a list and I'm working to perfect it so I'm open to ideas / suggestions / challenges if you will. So if you've got one leave a comment.
I'll be starting my grand adventures the week of september 4th and will be documenting the fun, the challenges, the excitement and even the disappoints as I'm sure not all will turn out exactly as planned but hey that's half the fun right?
