50 Things to do before I die
Yes, the mother of all Things To Do Lists. It's been a lot of fun dreaming up this bucket list the past few days, although some were stolen off the web. Personal development and humanitarian goals are not included (there's already too much of that in this blog anyway). Also missing are about a dozen sex-related items because I'm too shy to put them out there for all to see (perhaps after a few glasses of wine). Will I ever get to do these? Maybe half if I'm lucky. In no particular order:
1. Jump off the high dive at C.U.
2. Sky dive
3. Be the letter of the day
4. Bake really really good bread
5. Cook a gourmet 7-course meal for at least six people
6. Run a marathon
7. Pass my gold dances in figure skating
8. Play Beethoven's Pathetique Sonata
9. Write a song
10. Be a guest speaker at a large conference (key note would be even more amazing)
11. Visit Prague
12. Climb Manchu Picchu
13. Sit on a jury
14. Write a book
15. Spend a night back-country camping, BY MYSELF.
16. Grow a big garden
17. Surf/para sail/wind surf somewhere really dangerous
18. Scuba dive somewhere really cool
19. Go up in a hot air balloon
20. Have a repetoire of over 50 contemporary piano songs played from memory
21. Snowboard
22. Knit a sweater
23. Learn to draw
24. Canoe/kayak whitewater
25. Sail my own boat somewhere exotic for at least 21 days
26. Create a kick-ass scrap book of my family's history
27. Be an extra in a film
28. Eat at an expensive trendy NYC restaurant
29. Read all 100 of the best novels of all time
30. Have dinner with someone famous
31. Own my own business
32. Do a triathalon
33. Homestead for at least six months
34. Get a hair and make-up makeover
35. See all 100 of the best movies of all time
36. Organize a big event (at least 1000 people)
37. Add more things to this list ... I can't believe that I can't think up more. Guess I've done a lot already. :-)
