things to do before you die

I`d like to finish the degree I started ,so I could do more for the kids I work with,Do all the fun,exciting ,romantic things I can think of, think of lots more to do so I never have to give up and die.

I would like to finish my book
I want to go absailing again and this time i want to do it properly... (Last time I freaked out and got my hair caught in the ropes!!!)
I want to go for a ride in a blimp!
I want to live through the evolution of hunger to dissapear (and homeless)
and I want to be around for just a safer world where you can leave your car unlocked and you dont have to fear for your childrens lives everytime they leave the front door.

1). Finish high school in a year and go on to university to study journalism and creative writing, and psychology.

2). Be successful.

3). Start a family and be in a loving relationship.

4). Live in America.

5). Travel the world.

6). Skydive and bungee jump.

7). Visit as many theme parks as I possibly can.

8). Make a [good] difference to somebody's life.

Retire in either Tuscany, or own an irish pub.

^ I know they don't relate to each other, but if I can't retire in Tuscany, Then owning an Irish pub would be a nice alternative. lol

I want to:
~win a state championship in lax
~see spain, south africa, iraq, INDIA, a pole (north or south, doesnt matter) and any place in south america
~regular stuff like finish college, get married, etc
~get published in print (not just online)
~change a few lives, doesn't matter whose
~do something that time can't erase

1) Help children living in poverty, being abused and neglected..etc..

2) Help feed the hungry and get people to start setting up shelters to educate the homeless on how to get their lives back on track..

3) Make my family realize they need help with their drug abuse so we can rebuild our family.

^ and you know the best way to do that is a wake up call, wether severe or not, they need to know how you feel and how serious it is and that you need them!

(that was referring to your number 3)

Live in a world where people are judged on the content of their character as opposed to race, ethnicity, religion or sexual origin.

Get over my fear of flying so I can travel to Ireland

Learn to play my acoustic guitar that has been decorating my room for about 6 mos now (I know 2 chords)

Get my Masters Degree

Teach a clinical group at the hospital I work at

Make a difference in as many lives as I possibly can

I didn't read all the posts, I just noticed the title of the board, but I thought I'd let everyone know there's a webiste (www.43things.com) where you can make a list of 43 things you'd like to accomplish (short-term or long-term). If you wanna see my list (currently at 23 things) my username is mikeywayzmybd. Otherwise you can just go and make your own list. You can also make different assorted lists of "bests" and of ppl you'd like to meet and places you'd like to go. :D It's one of the greatest sites on the web.
