{40 Before 40}

I debated back and forth about whether or not to make a "40 Before 40" list. I made a list before I turned 30, and I actually had a lot of fun with it. That was definitely a shorter time frame, so I figured that giving myself a few years to check off some bucket list items could make this one a little easier, with less pressure. So we'll see!
