20 things I want to ACHIEVE before I turn 20?!!

Hey! Hello everyone🙋🏾‍♀️! I hope this post has found you guys in good health. And praying that all of you are keeping well! Today’s post had me going through a LOT of aspirations!!😂 And I think I renewed a LOT of goals, and maybe I do have a goal to achieve in a few more years! 

• I need to learn driving

This is number one on the list! I need to stop depending on my parents to drive me around, instead I should be able to do this myself, MYSELF!! Currently what I am thinking of is driving to classes, and instead of sitting in the backseat, I will be sitting on the driver’s seat, ahh the HONOR! 🤩😂

I am also thinking of long road trips all by myself, well how cool is that? Maybe I should not go overboard with my thoughts and first learn to drive!😁 Is driving fun?

• I should have entered medical school

This is how I already look, imagine my state at medical school! Is it really that hard?

This one is important! Insha Allah (God willing) I want to become a gynecologist🤩, in order to achieve this goal, I know I’ll have to endure a long stay at medical school, so hopefully I will at least be two years through. 

• I should be closer to becoming an established blogger

Now this is going to take a LOT of blood, sweat and tears 😂, but I must achieve my dream. 🌠! BrainStorms needs to live and thrive, God willing! Check out my most popular post here!

• I need to be more well versed with my religion

This one is important!! I need to be more familiar with the Quran and know more hadith Insha Allah (God Willing)! 😍

• I should not be bankrupt

I should have at least collected money to a certain extent! Not that I am bankrupt right now😂, but you know what I mean? I should be able to at least make half a living! 😂

• I want to have an Instagram account

Idk, you guys, but this girl has some force of attraction with Instagram! I have always wanted to have an account on that platform but have not got permission from my parents to execute my plan yet! 😅! But do not worry, I am going to get there some day (self-comforting)! And you guys will probably be the first to know about it! 💖

• Visit either Maldives or Japan or BOTH!

Isn’t it BEAUTIFUL?

Ahhh! These two countries are at the top of my bucket list, I need to visit them somehow. Japan for it is stationary (stationary craze ⚠ alert), and Maldives has enchanted me with its beauty! This girl just loves a LOT of travelling!🤩 Any other wonderful places I need to visit? Let me know in the comment section down below!

• Vote

I think I probably will get my voting rights by next year, not exactly sure on how it works in Sri Lanka, but I somehow will end up voting before 20 (hopefully, if me is alive😂) My friend was telling me this story on how, when her mother voted for the first time, under the list of who you could vote for, she wrote her name down, put a box next to it and ticked it, cool right? Should I do that?

• Find beauty in everything

I think I have somewhat achieved this goal. Things look more appealing to my eyes now, and I have learnt not to complain about my life but to be grateful as people are SUFFERING! Let us pray for the unfortunate ones.

I think we all reach that age where outer beauty does not draw you in anymore, but it is the inner being that matters, that is the stage I am aiming to reach! 😁

• Love myself for who I truly am

Learning to love yourself just the way you are is a difficult thing, and I believe we all know that! Over the years I have learnt to appreciate my flaws, and instead of calling them my weaknesses, they should be my strengths. God willing, when I am 20, I should be able to love myself more than I do now! 😍

• Have a true friend

This one, to be honest, I have been struggling with ever since I was a child! Friendships mostly last a few months and, years for me has never quite happened. Some row would come up, or I find out that words are being spoken behind my back! 😥! I have never found a friend who will stick by me till the end of my life, but since the last year of school, I have been meeting new beings and all of us are getting along just fine. But I am yet to see if this friendship will last. 😶

Hopefully it does!

• Go to a cake décor class

I love cakes! LIKE LOVE not even like but LOVE! I really need to stop spending money on Uber eats and start baking my own cakes. Cake décor is a fun activity, all that icing, eeee FUN! Hopefully, I enrol myself to a baking class and learn about all those piping tips! (No pun intended🤣)

• Be more generous

I want to give more charity and eradicate POVERTY! I have always wanted to build a well so maybe donate money for that Insha Allah (God Willing)! 😊

• Become a Mandala expert

This human cannot stop with her mandalas! Very recently, for the first time in forever😃, I drew a mandala on a canvas and GOD it turned out wonderful. 🤩 I will do a post on it soon, do not worry! Check out some of my mandalas here and here!

• Take a DNA test

Now, now I have seen many YouTubers doing this, and I am INTERESTED too. Both my parents are Sri Lankan and so am I, but won’t it be fun to trace back to our origins!!🤩👍

• Read books from my TBR

A book I need to read!

I have a huge TBR list on GoodReads and I am SUPER eager to finish at least half the list. I should do a post about my TBR list shouldn’t I?

• Sell a canvas

The recent mandala that I drew on the canvas was put on sale, and till this very day no one bought it (straight facts)! 😅! Hopefully before I turn 20, I will be able to convince someone to buy my artwork

• Watch a sunrise

If you guys have been following me for a while then you all sure know, that I have watched plenty of sunsets during my kk trip, but not a single sunrise yet! 🤔! Hopefully by 20 I can check this off my bucket list!

• Host my own party

Ooooh this sounds fun does not it! Cannot wait to do it sometime! 🥳

• Complete a Bullet Journal

Cover page of my last year January spread!

I started one last year, and being a perfectionist, it was a rocky journey, everything on my bullet journal had to be immaculate. And that was drinking up a lot of time! So eventually by August I called it quits, and I regret not completing it! 😔! Hopefully I can keep up a journal for an entire year without STOPPING IN BETWEEN!

That was quite long wasn’t it! Time to close off this blog post!
Adiós amigos!💓
