A to Z ideas 

Happy 2025!! Wishing us all a beautiful 2025. Instead of writing down all my regular goals, I wanted to start the year with some A-to-Z ideas for dates, with friends, or for a solo outing.  

Recap 2024

My 2024 was a roller coaster. It started so well, and I was so goal-oriented.  Determined to keep posting on my blog and other socials, but life took an unexpected turn in March, and everything seemed useless. Telling myself daily to pick things back up, but unfortunately, this did not happen. Here we are at attempt 512 to being consistent online. The only thing that went well was my goal to do 10000 steps a day so I guess a win is a win. As a result, it made it feel like less of a year of failing all my goals.

Trend

Now, back to this week’s topic. This week’s post is about doing more things out of my comfort zone in 2025.  There is this trend online where couples are doing the A-to-Z dating trend.  Therefore I thought I wanted to experience this kind of fun too. 

Disclaimers

First disclaimer: I am still single and did not keep my word as stated in my 2023 goals post. As I said before, 2024 was a strange year. Dating was not a priority. I will start by doing these fun “date” ideas solo or with my friends. When Mister Right arrives in 2025, he is more than welcome to join in on all the fun. Another disclaimer: I will most likely be doing the outdoor ones when spring/ summer arrives because winter and I are not the best of friends. I go to work and come home.

Budget-friendly 

I also tried putting a few budget-friendly activities on this list because my bank account will be looking at me sideways in this economy. Also, the letter X was a bit tricky, so I had to be creative.

Things I am going to do from A to Z

There were so many fun ideas online but here are a few that I want to do this year.

A: Art Museum 

B: Bowling

C: Cooking Class or Cocktail making class 

D: Dance class 

E: Exercise (do a sport that I haven’t done before)

F: Food Festival 

G: Glamping

H: Host a dinner or High Tea Party

I: Ink (get some new tattoos)

J: Jumping at a Trampoline Park (no idea if my body will be grateful after this but it does sound like fun)

K: Karaoke 

L: Learn a new language. Duolingo has been very “aggressive” in my mail so let me go and pick things up again. Duolingo’s widget is now a dead bird on my phone. I need to revive it. 🙂

M: Massage

N: Nostalgic Movie Night

O: Open Mic Night

P: Picnic

Q: Quiz Night

R: Rooftop Bar Hopping

S: Sip and Paint

V: Vacation

W: Weekend Getaway

X: Xayvian. This is my little nephew’s name. The plan is to spend the day with him and have a nephew and auntie day. I already know this will be the best day out of all of these.

Y: Yes Day (this one will be tricky because I am an over-thinker)

Z: Zen (go to a spa or something like that to feel all Zen afterward)

Updates on IG

I will keep you posted on how I get on with the alphabet (dating) ideas. I hope to have crossed them all off by the end of 2025. Of course, there will be pictures. or it didn’t happen. 😉 

If you know of some fun ideas too feel free to leave them in the comments. Let’s have a Dushilifestyle in 2025!
