29 Things to leave in my 20's

In the spirit of making lists, and thanks to the idea from Debbie at On the Refrigerator Door, I have made a list of things I want to declutter from my life and leave behind in my 20's when I turn 30. Some of these items are wishful thinking but some are things I really hope, and will strive to, part with. (I will let you be the judge of which one is which!)
At any rate, these are definitely things I can live without when I hit my 30's!

  1. Allergies
  2. Fake "Friends"
  3. What if's
  4. Doing it my way (verses God's way)
  5. Ironing
  6. Bad relationship choices
  7. Shoes that hurt my feet
  8. Migraines
  9. Holey underwear
  10. Lint attracting dress pants
  11. Procrastination
  12. Split ends
  13. Door dings
  14. Negative influences
  15. Know it all's
  16. Bad hair days
  17. Itchy sweaters
  18. Odd socks
  19. Sinus Infections
  20. Dust Bunnies
  21. Dropped calls
  22. Junk mail
  23. Cases of the Mondays
  24. Impulse buys
  25. Excuses
  26. Old ghosts
  27. Unwanted belly fat
  28. Regrets
  29. Ramen Noodles
And just as a side note, I was telling my mom about this list last night and the first thing she said was "Bad Relationship Choices". Thanks mom, already on the list!

  8. Mandy told me to check you out! I like your lists. However I feel like a total slacker now. I turn 30 in two weeks and I don't have a list of things to leave in my 20's. Maybe I can make one tonight?!

    Scratchy sweaters are the worst. I gave them up last year. I also gave up ramen noodles the minute I left college. Bleck. Can't stand them anymore.

    Anyway, I'll follow you. I want to see how you come on your lists!
