Suggestions for Bucket List

[FullMetalExoParticipant 2383]

– getting in to better shape, I started half year ago but checked results just now. From 86kg to 80kg.

– Goal: 72-75 Kg’s. to get even with my 172 cm height (height/weight) ratio.

(I lost 6 kg of weight in 3 months gents, “water diet” alone, by eating less food in general, drinking more water, got in to green tea now more.

And less of everything else. Occasional beer/tequila/vodka party once in 1-2 months is fine hehe.

– this summer, swimming in the Sea as much as possible, sadly, this and last years its mostly rainy/cloudy.

– new job/professional education this year, more physical activity this year.

– work will be 12 hours, every 2-3 days = tons of free time (its a blessing really), and good money.

 

After I make myself better, more Fun will begin:

– getting a drivers license for ATV/Motorcycles

– getting ATV or just go all out and get Ducati I always wanted. And ATV just to fill in the garage. Getting a bicycle again.

– buying a garage. Or renting, depending on the needs.

– parachute jump…and landing.

– visiting Finland, Sweden, Ireland, Lithuania.

– trying Beers in every country I visit. And Pizza.

– visiting Estonia this weekend btw. And visited Russia(Moscow) last year, was awesome. Good beers there.

…

that’s the plan for now.

They have this relatively new franchise, it’s called World of Beer, and they are popping up all over North America. I’d recommend it, I was at one a couple months back and it had a great selection of worldly beers. Of course it’s much more ideal to visit other countries but I thought this place was pretty good.

The thing about bucket lists and dreams is that it’s a good idea to do them sooner than later,  there are no guarantees about tomorrow.

Because in order to be able to think, you have to risk being offensive.

Like KeyMaster said..Travel.  I am planning to visit the lower 48, Canada and mexico in the next few years at the blinding pace of a motorized bicycle pulling a small trailer with tent and sleeping bag..I may carry a small bit of memory foam for added comfort, but otherwise roughing it…

You should go see everything that sparks your interest…

Only if you enjoyed the movie Lonesome Dove, You should read the book…The endings were so different.. Gus and Call’s friendship may be at the heart of Lonesome Dove, but the book’s ending points in another direction. When Call returns to Lonesome Dove after burying Gus, he encounters the town’s barber, Dillard Brawley. “What happened to the saloon?” Call asks, having noticed that the local watering hole has disappeared. Dillard explains that the establishment’s owner, Xavier Wanz, locked himself in Lorena’s vacant room and burned the building to the ground after she left town. “The woman,” Dillard whispers, in the book’s very last words. “They say he missed that whore.” It’s an odd conclusion to an epic work of fiction; after 842 pages largely consumed with manly valor, the pathetic Wanz’s frustrated yearning for domesticity reads like a punch line.

Name a star.

Go camping

Go to a performance of Shakespeare’s Hamlet and just before the curtain opens scream out loud “KNOCK KNOCK” I have always wanted to do that…For those who don’t understand why, The first line in the play is “who’s there” so you scream knock knock the curtain opens and an actor onstage says who’s there..

Hike to the bottom of the grand canyon.

sleep in a treehouse

horseback riding

I am not a thrill seeker. but if you are

Rock climb

skydive

hanglide

walk a tight-rope

If your fast on your feet slap a grizzly bear..

anything risky that appeals to your adrenalin addiction..

Don’t wait for the right circumstances to start checking things off, such as having the time..(make time for your passions) or having the money (I have enjoyed many a trip on a shoestring budget)…waiting for everything to be perfect could cause you to miss out on  opportunities for memorable experiences..

 

 

 

 

I was bound to be misunderstood, and I laugh at those who misunderstand me. Kind mockery at the well intentioned, but unfettered cruelty towards those would be prison guards of my creative possibilities. This so as to learn as much from misunderstanding as from understanding. Taking pleasure in worthy opponents and making language fluid and flowing like a river yet pointed and precise as a dagger. Contradicts the socialistic purpose of language and makes for a wonderful linguistic dance, A verbal martial art with constant parries that hone the weapon that is the two edged sword of my mouth.
