Bucket List.

[LovebirdsFlying]

I've accomplished most of my major goals already. I wanted to leave the country at least one time, just to say I'd done it; I have visited Mexico once and Canada several times. I wanted to marry a stable, Godly man after having nothing but disaster in my married life, like my mother before me. This is now done. I have become a mother and a grandmother. I have graduated from college. I have held a paying job. (Low goals, some of them, but I come from a very dysfunctional background.) I have been set free from alcohol and tobacco, and now I am losing weight. We have bought the house of my dreams and should be moving within the month. I gave up on learning to drive a car, because my peripheral vision isn't good enough. But at least I came close enough to that goal to know it wasn't that I was incapable, intellectually.

The only really major one left: I want to set foot in all 50 United States of America.

Just checked Alaska off the list. Hawaii happened two years ago. I lack only Michigan and the upper Atlantic coast: Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. As small as most of those states are, they should be knocked out in a week's worth of vacation one year.

That's only 14 left out of 50, which means I have been in 36 states.

My bucketlist:
*I wanna travel outside asia. Ive been to China(Hk n Beijing), Singapore and Malaysia. ( It would be a dream come true to visit the Holy Land. If possible ill travel the whole world before Id die. I think its fascinating to learn other people's culture and to witness God's amazing creature.)
*Skydiving
*Bungee Jumping(was fulfilled last december at singapore)
*Scuba diving
*to be successful with my career.
( I want to work somewhere out the country. I dont think my careeer would progress here in my country.)
*to be happily married and have kids.(I'm already 20 years old yet I have never been in a relationship before. I'm still waiting for the right person. I want God to write my own love story. I have admirers but I have the tendency to shut them down beforehand. I just dont like them giving me attention. I have difficulty interacting with the opposite sex. I dont know why. )
* Unlimited shopping spree( Every girls dream.... )
*to get rid of my excess adipose tissue.
*to read the entire Bible
*to further enhance my cooking skills.
*to work in a cruise.

Wasn't there one of those on here a few years ago? I remember reading a book for it. We should start one again.

My bucket list is changing (and I guess I am too). I don't have access to my old one, which is still on FB, but here's what I'm thinking of right now:

Become at least somewhat fluent in one or more languages other than English (Mandarin Chinese and/or Spanish is what I'm thinking of at this point)
Go to Germany (I'm thinking either Berlin, Frankfurt, or Cologne)
Go to Canada (seems a shame that I used to live so close to Canada and, yet, have never been there--thinking Ottowa, Vancouver, and/or Toronto).
Write a book (novel or non-fiction, of which I have a couple of ideas)
Be in either a hot air balloon myself or at least be to a hot air balloon festival

 

[SplendidTree]

Have the Lord work through me to make a difference in even just one person's life.
