List your top 200 achievements

As a 21 year old, I haven’t achieved all that much in life. Have I? I haven’t saved the world, created a cure for a disease or software that’s earned me billions of dollars.
Mark Elliot Zuckerberg, born May 14, 1984 is best known for creating the social networking site, Facebook. Zuckerberg created Facebook when he was 20 years old. At 21 years old, I have no Facebook type of creation to be proud about, yet I’ve still achieved so much.
Personally  - I’ve grown up quite a bit and have learnt a few things over the few short years that I’ve lived. One of them is to be patient. There’s so many more that I will learn, but I’ve still come quite a long way.
Academically – I’ve reached my B-Tech year, which may not be all that impressive to Mark Zuckerberg, but the fact that I’m finally year means the world to me.
Spiritually – While I haven’t been on my Eat, pray, love journey yet, I have become a little more inclined to look at everyday things from a spiritual view. I still need to go a long way with this one though and learn a lot more about how I see religion.
Emotionally – So I’m told that I’m cold and a little bit emotionless. BLEH. Haven’t achieved that much here, other than I now give peck kisses on the cheek (GASP), and hugs (but only to older people and babies). I also say “I LOVE YOU” or “I MISS YOU” on Christmas, New Years and Birthdays. J I joke…. Lol. I might not be as emotional as most women, but it’s there. You can’t see it, but it’s definitely there.
So I don’t have 200 achievements, but the ones that I do have, I’m so awfully proud about.

  1. 200 is a tall order for a young woman - many don't even achieve as much in a lifetime as you have thus far. I fully agree, you have every reason to be proud of the ones you have listed. You go girl - the world is your oyster - it's waiting open arms to welcome your future achievements (and they'll all be great). Enjoyed the read.
