30 Sort of Accomplishments
…at age 30.
I’m such a reflector I’ll blind you.
I constantly reflect on what the decisions, opportunities, and events in my life mean.
And sometimes you gotta write sh*t down.
And since I just turned 30, what better time? And what better way than a list?
Also a great tool to use for my eventual autobiography (lol).
SO HERE’S 30 THINGS I’VE DONE AT AGE 30.
- Interviewed the legend Cher. She was quite sassy with me BTW.
- Hired strippers for my sorority’s annual fake wedding bachelorette party.
- Pushed out of an airplane, although some would say I jumped.
- Ugly cried on a reality TV show that hasn’t aired yet.
- Snuck into Wimbledon with six girls to watch Venus Williams play, during a backpacking trip.
- Helped build a house out of cow poop in Africa.
- Hosted my own travel TV show in Los Angeles, CA.
- Lindsay Lohan told me to scoot over at a club and delete the pics of her on my phone. (There weren’t any.)
- Dated a model who wrote about me in his Glamour magazine dating advice column.
- Britney Spears talked to me in her baby voice.
- Fractured my skull while waterskiing. Who does that? And how?
- Ran with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain. Champagne bottle in hand.
- Wrecked my car driving on the freeway and walked away with no scratches.
- Wore a bitchy hat to the Kentucky Derby. Same day wore a poncho in the pouring rain at the Derby.
- Watched my twin sister race track for Team USA in the Dominican Republic.
- Live in the ghetto in Brooklyn for a summer.
- Attended the MTV VMAs, MTV Movie Awards, Oscars, Emmys, BET Awards, American Music Awards, ACM Awards, Billboards Awards.
- Hosted an infomercial for a coffee mug that doesn’t tip over.
- Made out with my then boyfriend at the top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
- Appeared in a Jennifer Lopez music video.
- Started a fire at a candy store that I worked at.
- Got high by myself in Amsterdam. (Well, someone watched.)
- Shook Mel Gibson’s hand at a cigar club in Beverly Hills where he called me Mitzi.
- Borrowed a rock from Machu Picchu in Peru.
- Killed cockroaches in Cabo Mexico during a Bachelorette party.
- Dated a celebrity.
- Flew a combat airplane doing aerial flips over the ocean.
- Took my Grandma to a taping of her favorite show, Dancing with The Stars.
- TMZ filmed me hanging out with a YouTube celebrity.
- May or may not be in the Mile High Club.
Bonus: I built a brand for myself, all by myself.
The point of this blog post is not to boast about ridiculous Hollywood-y things I’ve done.
The point is to share that while turning 30 this year, most of these things don’t matter to me.
My priorities have drastically changed and I farrrrr from desire to do these things over again. The travel stuff? YES. But the celebrity filled stuff? NO.
Many of the items on my list I bet some of my closest friends don’t know. Because these things are not important.
What I find value in at my 30 years are honest relationships, trusting friendship, and unconditional family support and love.
