Now that I am the ripe old age of 23, it's time for a 23 before 24 list to encourage me to start more new adventures and achieve more goals. Firstly though let's have a recap of my progress on my 22 before 23 list to see how I've fared. While I've only achieved 8 of the goals, they were some of the most important ones so I'm actually really happy with how I've done.
22 before 23
- Finish my undergraduate degree: Done, graduating was amazing! See post on this here
- Start my postgrad: Yep, nearly a year in now, time goes so so fast!
- Get my full driver's licence: Got it a few months ago, I was really shocked and happy when I passed.
- Buy my first car: Found my perfect car on my birthday, meant to be or what??
- Go to my grad ball: Yep, such an incredible night with the best friends you could ask for, read about it here.
- Improve my sewing skills: Didn't do anything about this one...
- Learn to bake chocolate fudge cake: I did learn to make Rocky Road and it was yummy so I reckon it's not so bad!
- Visit the Giant's Causeway: No, kind of disappointed about this one but I'm sure I will in time.
- See Bruce Springsteen live: Yes did this in the summer, it was the best concert I have ever ever been to! See the pics here
- Send 22 letter/cards/postcards: Not even nearly, I sent ONE Christmas card, but it was sent to Australia so surely that gets me extra points??
- Make a patchwork quilt with my sister: Emmm..No
- Visit Scotland: Meant to be going this September so I'll move that to my 23 before 24 list instead.
- Write a Bucket list: In progress...
- Buy a new laptop: Yes, I love my new laptop, my old one was my first and was 7 years old so you can imagine how much a difference the new one is.
- Go camping: Nope, the weather is just so cold most of the time!
- Train to walk the Camino de Santiago: I did take up doing Youtube exercise videos but it's going to take alot more than that!
- Donate blood again: I HAVE to get back to doing this.
- Go to Francis Bacon exhibition at The Hugh Lane Gallery: Need to do this soon, it's meant to be amazing.
- Learn to make jam: I ate jam..
- See a new play: Not a single one
- Go surfing: No but that probably wasn't going to happen, I am very rarely near the sea.
- Worry less :): This has definitely happened, I do have plenty of pressures and worries but I'm learning to sweat the small stuff less.
I have achieved a few goals I'm really proud of so I can't wait to share my 24 Before 25 list, once I've finished thinking of 24 things! Do you set these kind of goals, did you achieve many?

It can be so tricky meeting goals - you've done well though!
