23 Things To Do While I’m 23

23 Things To Do While I’m 23

It’s my 23rd birthday today… my Jordan year! Last year, I combined my birthday post with my new years resolutions and I decided to do it again this year! I think it’s a good way for me to set goals for myself and then look back and see how much I accomplished in a year. While I was 22, I completed 17 out of 22 of the things on my list! The five that I didn’t complete, I incorporated into this list. Here are 23 things I would like to do while I’m 23!

  1. Complete my master’s degree. // SU Newhouse Class of 2017!
  2. Pray more and go to church more. // I did try one new church in NYC, but I need to go more often. 
  3. Complete at least one magazine internship. // Nylon Magazine!
  4. Get my first real journalism job. (kind of) // Full-time paid internship at CafeMom
  5. Move to New York City. // See pics of my first NYC room here!
  6. Travel to somewhere I’ve never been. // Charleston & Boston
  7. Learn to budget more efficiently & save more money.
