This post was inspired by Miss Indie's blog post HERE. I figured that since I have so much time on my hands I might as well take on this challenge. So here's my take of my very own 19 before 20 list. I've had a hard time figuring out what I want for my life this year, but I feel that as long as I try achieving as much goals as possible it will be good enough for me and hopefully I will grow and mature better as an individual as a result. Here's to hoping!
1. Get lasik eye surgery. This was on my Before I Die bucket list last year and I still haven't gotten around to persuading my parents to allow me to get one.
2. Get my braces done. I happen to have a very serious phobia of dentists but my parents have been nagging me to get one for ages so this has to happen,pronto.
3. Read at least 10 books.
4. Figure out what I want in life and finalize my university selection.
5. Watch at least 3 decent 2013 Korean dramas. And by decent I mean dramas that are brilliantly written,witty,sleek,humorous,heartwarming with proper execution. Breathtaking visuals and cinematography also helps. School 2013 is already on this list. Flower Boy Next Door is proving itself to be a strong contender although at this point of time we still have 3 more episodes left but if it keeps staying awesome,I'll have another one under my belt. I've recently started on my first melodrama venture which is That Winter,the Wind Blows. It actually came across to me as a surprise since I am in fact strongly averse to melodramas and overused drama tropes like fauxcest,car accidents,switched identities,rich heiress falls in love with conman yada yada yada you know what I mean. I’m a little alarmed by how much I love TWtWB, actually. I know that dramas can always turn on you and suck at the end but as of now damnnn,the first three episodes worked for me. Jo In Sung shone brilliantly in this role. I swear I feel like calling him oppa chi-geum-tang-jang right now! (the chi-geum-tang-jang right now part is a pun on the most uttered phrase by the panda-eyed editor in FBND. HEH.) GO.WATCH.THIS.DRAMA.RIGHT.NOW. I am also having my fingers crossed for upcoming dramas like Nine and The Gu Family Book.
6. Read my long abandoned textbooks before I head to university.
7. Score well in IELTS.
8. Get another charm for my charm bracelet.
9. Lose 5kg.
10. Have a birthday celebration with my girlfriends.
11. Find my very own individual sense of style through experimenting while making my outfit choices. (Read : Expand my wardrobe collection)
12. Learn how to contour my face. (I have no idea on how to use a bronzer or a blush,so hopefully I'll slowly get the hang of it soon?)
13. Participate in some charity work of any sort.
14. Make some new friends.
15. Start video blogging.
16. Try to balance out my English and Chinese proficiency. I don't know why but somehow whenever I'm getting really good at either one of it,the other language will definitely deteriorate rapidly for sure. Can't I be just be equally good for both?
17. Get myself a decent,long lasting and timeless accessory.
18. Expand my skincare and makeup collection. I'd love to improvise my skincare routine and hone my makeup skills.
19. Take up a Korean language course.
Do you have any goals to achieve before your next birthday?
Awesome list! and I wish you all the best to achieve these :D
ReplyDeleteHeh thanks! Took me ages to figure out what goals to set and to make sure that they are realistic enough considering the time limit. :)
