The Beginning

The Original List

This all began around February 2012, when the realization of turning 29 got me thinking about who I was and who I wanted to be. The classic pondering sense from Zoolander comes to mind, “Who am I.” The fast approaching 29th birthday quickly moved aside and my attention focused on that number you don’t thinking about until it is already upon you, yeah 30, I know. Now don’t get me wrong, I can’twait to be 30, but also realize I have much to do before I get there.


So this is where the “list” comes into play. I started to compile a list of things I wanted to do before I reached 30. Playing off of the title of the ESPN documentaries 30 for 30 I decide to create a list of 30 things to do by age 30. Thus creating the title 30 by 30. Fallow me in my adventure to 30, where I’ll be documenting every successful or non-successful attempt to check off everything from my list.


Follow me on an adventure to 30, I’ll be documenting every successful or non-successful attempt to check off everything from my list.

Looking over my list today I realized that most of the items force me to experience something new and often exciting.  The idea of the list is to push me to develop into the person I want to be and the person I see myself as; outgoing, adventurous, friendly, loving, with a passion for others.   

That being said I am thinking about changing number 15; Giving up Facebook for 1 month.  My reasoning behind this is one, I feel giving up Facebook can be easily done, especially once the raspberry season gets started, this being that I work like 90 hours a week and have no time for Facebook. The other reason is I want to find a goal that forces me out improve myself.  I feel giving up Facebook doesn’t force me towards my ultimate goal.

So this being said I am opening up item 15 to you.  I would like you all to give me suggestions.  Keep in mind items need to cost fewer than 200 dollars and needs to be able to be done within 8 hours of the Pullman area.  I will consider all suggestions and pick one to do.  Looking forward to all the ideas.
