30 before 30

Okay, here's the list of things I'm going to accomplish before my thirtieth birthday. It's not that any of them will be any less significant if they are done later, but I think my thirtieth is a nice deadline for things that I have been putting off, talking about, dreaming about, etc. So, here's the list:
1) Quit smoking
2) Pay off my student loans
3) Dye my hair RED
4) Join a gym and get in shape for the first time ever
5) Buy a starter apartment
6) Learn to live on a budget
7) Cultivate a taste for Scotch
8) Improve posture
9) Consistently get up when the alarm goes off the first time
10) Get my teeth whitened and veneers
11) Improve my credit to the point where #5 will be possible
12) Go to Mardi Gras
13) Learn Spanish well enough to understand people on the train
14) Enroll in the 401K
15) Enter, and perhaps complete, grad school
16) Take care of my skin
17) Get hobby that doesn't qualify as a vice
18) Learn to type (I know, I know...)
19) Own a real pet
20) Straighten out my identification situation
21) Bring my voice down an octave
22) Get back into yoga
23) Take up a martial art (or at least try a few classes to see if I like it)

More to follow...
