Dream Big!

play slots

For a long time now I have been making a list in my head of things I want to do in my lifetime. I have never actually written them down but for some reason I feel like today is the day to do it. So here goes, in no particular order, my current top 30:
1. Ride elephants in Thailand (I've already done that one- earlier this year!)
2. Visit 20 countries within the next 20 years (I figure that is fairly achievable)
3. Sing "I Will Survive" at a kareoke bar (there is a story behind this one: this was the first song I ever sang at kareoke when I was quite young and I was so incredibly nervous. You could hardly even hear me! I nearly died! I have changed a LOT since then and can't wait to belt this one out!)
4. Do the best I possibly can in my last few years of school and then uni
5. Become a vet
6. Live and work in London, England as a vet
7. Get a tattoo (just a little one, like on the back of my neck or something)
8. Kiss a total stranger (don't know if this will happen, but hey, it's my list!)
9. Shop in New York. Actually just to BE in NY would be awesome!
10. Bungee jump (Probably in New Zealand)
11. Sleep under the stars (no tent like I always do, just sky!)
12. Road trip around Australia with friends (This one is already in the works, three of my friends and I are planning already for this at the end of Year 12- Can't wait!)
13. Fall in love- for real! With someone who actually loves me back! (Read some of my old posts to see what I'm talking about)
14. Get dressed up and attend the Melbourne Cup
14.1 Attend any one of the days of the Spring Racing Carnival (i.e. Oaks Day, Cox Plate, Derby Day, etc.)
15. Learn to dance properly (this will happen next year, with my deb ball preparations)
16. Celebrate my birthday, New Year's Eve, in another country
17. Visit Paris in autumn- it looks like it would be soooo beautiful
18. Attend at least one major sporting event (Olympics, etc. But I would most like to go to an AFL grand final)
19. See my footy team, Collingwood Magpies, win a grand final!
20. Visit Germany (this is likely, I'm hopefully heading over there with my German language studies next year)
21. 1 Drive on the Autobahn in Germany (no speed limits! Woo!)
21.2 Celebrate Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany
22.Snorkel in a tropical setting (already done this- again in Thailand!)
23. Snorkel in the Great Barrier Reef
24. Go skiing
25. Learn to mix cocktails as a bartender (plans already in the works for this one- one of my (future) roadtripping mates, Rachelle, and I are going to do a two-day course at a local TAFE which qualifies you with an alcohol and gaming license)
26. Run a marathon
27. Go skinnydipping
28. Play poker in Vegas
29. Stay out partying all night then go straight to work (not as a vet obviously, that's just dangerous, but when I'm still without responsibility!)
30. Attend a big rock concert (or any concert at all, really!)
31. Take a hot balloon ride
32. Have my own family that is just as great as my family with my parents and siblings now!

Wow it feels so good to have just written this all down- somehow it makes it all more achievable. OK, so there was 32. not 30. But it's addictive! There is so much more I want to do!
What would you have on your list?
