MY CHECKLIST OF THINGS TO DO BEFORE I DIE.........

February 5th 2007 04:32
MY CHECKLIST OF THINGS TO DO BEFORE I DIE (IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER)

1. TAKE A LEAP OF FAITH - CHECK
40TH birthday in Pattaya, Thailand
Note: wearing a skirt and a harness aint comfortable
Leap of Faith
Leap of Faith



2. TRAVEL TO 50 COUNTRIES BEFORE I AM 50 - WORK IN PROGRESS
Fiji, USA (6 times including 3 months in campervan from Vancouver to Washington),
Canada (12 months work), Mexico (4 times), Hong Kong (before it reverted to China),
Vanuatu, Bali (3 times does that count?), Malaysia (twice), New Zealand (8 times, It's still another country), Singapore (3 proper times and 1 stopover), Thailand (5 times including 10 months work), India, Laos, Cambodia, UK, Romania, Greece, Germany, Hungary, Austria, Tasmania (yes, I know thats cheating)... shit thats only 20 (not counting Tasmania) and I've only got 6 and a bit years left......

3. CLIMB A MOUNTAIN - CHECK
Mount Warning is not a very big mountain but it's still a Mountain OK

4. LEARN A LANGUAGE - HMM
I learnt French for 2 years in High School but dont remember anything, took Japanese lessons but was hopeless, had Thai lessons while I lived there but am very rusty, its a tricky language. Dabbled in Russian, difficult, Bislama is a bit easier (Vanuatu), Spanish is supposedly not hard.

5. MAKE AMENDS TO ANYONE I HAVE HARMED UNLESS TO DO SO WOULD CAUSE THEM PAIN - WORK IN PROGRESS

The list is long.

6. FORGIVE ANYONE WHO HAS HARMED ME INTENTIONALLY OR OTHERWISE - WORK IN PROGRESS
This list is intrinsicly interwoven with no 5 and is taking some disentangling.

7. FIND INNER PEACE - WORK IN PROGRESS
The supposedly simplest, I am finding hard to even start on this one

8. FOLLOW THE BUDDHA'S PRECEPTS - WORK IN PROGRESS
This is definitely a challenge

9. BE A GOOD FRIEND AND SISTER/DAUGHTER/PARNTER - WORK IN PROGRESS
dependent on outcome of 6,7 & 8

10. BE CHARITABLE SHARE MY GOOD FORTUNE WITH OTHERS-
WORK IN PROGRESS
Charity begins at home...............I have donated my collection of barcodes from chocolate bar wrappers to my flatmate who doesnt have any.
I had a choice to buy a "Big Issue" for $4 or an instant scratchie and I chose the magazine.
I have been clicking everyday on Hunger Site, Rainforest Site, Literacy Site, Child Health Site, Breast Cancer Site. I made a donation to the RSPCA (fuck humans, these dogs dont have too many choices in life).
