So, yesterday I turned 22. I don't know if I can relate to Taylor Swift in actually feeling like I'm 22 years old, but I do feel like I'm now at a point in life where I'm going to have to start making some big decisions and meeting goals.

There's no clear timeline for when life will start going back to "normal." Since there's no telling if this year will be similar to last year, full of uncertainties, I didn't want to make any goals specifically for 2021. But I did want to start setting goals for myself, so I decided to make goals to complete in the next three years. Most of these goals are just activities that I have yet to do or want to continue to do (many depend on whether there's still a pandemic), but some are actual adult decisions that I will have to make soon. So here are 25 goals that I have set for myself to complete in the next three years by the time I am 25 years old.

1. Get My Master's Degree

2. Find a Teaching Position

3. Create a Budget (and follow it)

4. Find a Place to Live
5. Create My Own Home Library

6. Start a Habit of Saving
