You're not dying are you jin? :(:(
Lol no but my friends are dropping like flies around me so I wanted to create a list of 1001 things to break up the monotonicity of general life, so far I am on 272 items which isn't a bad start. But it would be interesting to hear what others have to say.
5 things:
Fly a Fighter jet.
Win a lottery.
Be a Habbox Forum Super Moderator.
Do voice over on 1 successful game
Become famous for something other than public disturbance

Fly a fighter jet, I like that.
I forgot to mention the things on your list need to be achievable through your own talent and determination. So to say "Win a Lottery" assuming this to be the national lottery wouldn't be a good one as that is based upon factors outside your own control and relies mostly on chance.

Spend a night on a desert island on your own in your pants
...or climb a mountain.
Why limit yourself to your own pants or pants at all!? :P that is a nice one though.

Earn £1 million (and actually have it to spend not just like 50k a year for 20 years which would then mostly be gone from tax and bills).
Get laid.
Meet my obsession.
Meet up some people who I haven't seen in a long time.
Get a page on Wikipedia about me.
Have a smoke (I would only do this if I knew I was dieing).

Yeah, for me there is a lot in my life that I hate and would change and like I want to be a completely different person before I die haha. I quite fancy jumping out of a plane too just because I think it would be quite an experience and calming and stuff. xD
i really want to start one of these, i might start it on my listography. mmm.
my main goal is to make some kind of impact on the world of theatre, dunno how but i'd love to.
i'd also love to go to new york fashion week.
and live in italy for a month

Nothing really, can't think of anything that I place that much importance on before I die.
There's many things i'd like to see happen before I die, but not so much 'I want to do X before I die'.

12-10-2011, 06:49 PM
Hmm, difficult question. I'm quite content the way I am to be honest :P Live for today and all that. I can't think of any long-term and short-term goals, other than complete my degree. Places to visit would probably be Japan or just travel to more places, but they're all pretty bog standard and not strong desires.
I'd like to
Earn £10000
Spend £10000 on training for a PPL
Earn a further £90000
Spend a further £90000 on an ATPL
------------------------------------------------
If that is seen as unachieveable then I can settle with buying a jet ski :)
(Whoever said parasailing, do it!!!! It's brill)

I think about this quite a lot, but then I've never really wanted to make a list out of fear that I'd never complete it. I swam with dolphins a few years ago in Florida and I've seen them in the wild there too. I went up in a hot air balloon last August in Florida, and I was so close to going parasailing in the Bahamas but it was cancelled due to Hurricane Irene. :P
I would love to go skydiving. My parents asked if I wanted to do it over the Grand Canyon in 2007 and I turned it down: I think I must have been scared and it was a spur-of-the-moment decision. Now, it's something I have my heart set on doing; the freedom of just falling must be so exhilarating. When we visited the Grand Canyon, there were helicopters flying over and they looked miniscule - it must be amazing.
So yeah, not sure what else to be honest. Obviously I have my heart set on university and gaining a degree. Ultimately I'd love to end up in Florida with a perfect family. One can hope! :)
Inseriousity.
12-10-2011, 10:57 PM
list to do before i die umm ;

Oh really? Lucky you D:
What about a 'Double, upside down rainbow?' ;) Gl spotting one of them.
Also, On my list, one of things I have is 'taste a mystical berry' - it alters your taste buds temporarily, and can make sour items e.g. lemons taste as sweet as sugar xL
Lost_Addict
23-10-2011, 08:39 PM
Haha ^^ that mystical berry would be incredible.
To be honest, I haven't really thought about it, I just like living day by day right now, and take things as they come. Whenever I've tried to set big goals/things to do in the past, I've just kinda concentrated on them and forgot to enjoy the 'now'.
The only thing I really want to do is start training jiu jitsu/mma and I can see it happening pretty soon.
