20 Things to do before you turn 20

Greetings earthlings,

As usual, I shall start things of with me apologizing for being so bad at this whole blogging thing. I'm sorry for my absence of late. A combination of work, wisdom teeth extraction, writer's block and general laziness saw me abandoning you all. This won't happen again I promise!

I turned 19 on the 27th of May. I've only one year left of being a teenager and I plan to make it a good one! Although to be honest I'm not dreading turning 20 next year as I'm just happy to be alive! I think birthdays should always be seen as a great thing no matter what age you are. However I do get it. I get that birthday especially the one that marks the end of your teenage years can be upsetting. I think the reason people can get bit upset at birthdays is because they start to think of all the things they want to accomplish but still haven't.
That's why I'm going to set myself the '20 Things to do before you turn 20' challenge. This way, although there will still be a lot of things left that I want to do I will have at least 20 to appreciate.

Because it's my last year of being a teenager I want to make sure I set myself some fun things to do. That said, I need to throw in a few 'grown up' accomplishments so that when I turn 20 I'm not absolutely terrified of being an actual adult in the real world.

I will of course be documenting each of these tasks right here on Planet Lo so you can all follow my journey.
Are you facing your last year as a teen? Your first? Maybe the last year of your 20's, 30's.40's? Whatever the age, it doesn't matter, everyone can benefit from setting themselves tasks for the year ahead. So if you're up for it, do it! Make a list of things you've always wanted to do-and do them! Follow me on twitter at @PLANETLO1and let me know how you're getting on with a tweet or with a pic! Or you can leave a comment right here on Planet Lo.

I'll be doing one of these tasks roughly every two weeks, depending on the task in question. I will be adding to this 20 Things To Do Before You Turn 20 series every second Sunday on Planet Lo.Finally, a bit of direction!  In between these posts you can expect my general waffle, but hopefully I can develop more of a genre. We'll have to wait and see!
Thanks for stopping by :)

Stay classy,

L xx
