Ashley’s 30 before 30 list

Besides being a Capricorn, one thing I love about my January birthday is how instead of making New Year's Resolutions, I get to make Birthday Resolutions--things I want to accomplish before my next birthday.
This year's Birthday Resolutions, however are a little bit different....this year, I turned 29!  That means, there are 366 (2012 is a leap year!) days for me to accomplish these resolutions, and the pressure is on....here's what I want to knock out before I turn 30 years old (in no particular order):
