My Bucket List
So, I’ve been thinking about doing a bucket list for some time and I have a mental list in my head, but I’ve never actually written it down. Now I’m not dying or anything. This is just for fun! I may never get to do some of these things, but they are all things that I would really like to do someday!
1. See the All Blacks perform the Haka at a rugby match
2. See the Southern Cross in the sky
3. Go to Manitoba and do the polar bear tour at Cape Churchill
4. Learn a foreign language fluently
5. Live overseas for at least one to two years
6. Go hang gliding
7. Visit Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island
8. Visit Australia and New Zealand
9. Get my master’s degree
10. Dance with a stranger
11. Go on a sleigh ride that is pulled by reindeer
12. Color my hair a weird color like purple or maroon (maybe just partially)
13. Have children
14. Own a rescue greyhound
15. Own a Peel P50
16. Do a full twist on a trampoline
17. Have someone tell me they like me “just as I am” (yes, I am channeling Bridget Jones and Mark Darcy)
18. Learn to hula dance
19. Send a secret to Postsecret
20. Go to an NBA game
21. Go out on a lobster boat and catch some lobster
22. Swim with dolphins
23. Give a stranger a hug and buy them a cup of coffee when they are having a bad day
24. See the Northern Lights
25. Be a cartoon voice
26. Take a hot air balloon ride
27. Go to Easter Island
28. Hold a baby chimpanzee or baby gorilla
29. Write my name in a giant lawn with a riding lawn mower
30. Have a spa day with a facial, back massage, and foot massage
31. Hold a wombat (I know…they are nature’s speed humps, but they are so cute)
32. Learn to play the violin
33. Take a solo trip somewhere (maybe Ireland...that's my current first choice!)

I will probably keep adding to this list, but this is what I have so far.

But seriously, maybe you should try and see what you favourite 3 wishes are and work towards them. I'm certain you could do it (in your life, not tomorrow, maybe). 31 things is too diffused.
I think this is a great idea! I don't have a bucket list at all! I had one wish in my 20s, which was to go to Iceland, which I did for my 40th birthday, and I wanted to get a PhD, which I did quite easily (I mean, it just followed from what I was doing at the time).
Am I boring for not having a list? Or just contented with what I have? Or have I not allowed myself to think about these things that may never happen?

I tried colouring part of my hair purple - it was a huge disaster!
LOL at number 17 . I love that movie!
I have never thought of a bucket list for myself . But 3 things I really want are:
- Stay in Italy for a year
- Get a good job once I complete my post-graduation this year
- Have a HUGE gothic library of my own haha
That's it for now. I guess there are many other things I want, but can't think of them.

We have a few wishes in common or at least similar. I want to parachute, you want to hang-glide, etc.
