If you were to pick 5 things you want to achieve in your life that you have not yet done, what would they be and why?

Here’s my 5 in no particular order:

1.Climb Mount Everest: The reason I want to do this is because I want to feel the adrenalin pumping through my blood as I push myself to do one of the hardest feats I consider there to be for my body and mind. I have a picture of Everest showing the main paths taken by climbers and one day I want to be able to point to that picture and say “I went this way”

2.Go on a long-haul flight: This might seem like nothing much to most but for me this would be a real achievement because it is physically impossible for me to do at the moment. I’d love to visit somewhere like Australia or Canada, but at the moment it’s something I can only dream about.

3.Tell someone I love them and mean it: I think I was born incapable of loving anyone! I’m a strange sort of person, I don’t get heartbroken when someone close to me dies, I just miss their presence, but that’s nowhere near the same thing. I wouldn’t exactly be a wreck if I was told I could never see my family again, because I barely speak to them as it is, and I hate to say it, but it feels like I barely know them.

4.Not have kids: Another slightly odd one but I have my reasons. I don’t like this world we live in one little bit so I would never even consider bringing a child into it. Besides, most people I know that have kids have them for entirely selfish reasons, really its like that for a lot of people these days, as it isn’t necessary for most of us to reproduce, after all the point of kids is to continue the survival of the species, but the world is overpopulated as it is, and I really don’t want to add to that.

5.Manage a full week in Uni: Another seemingly easy one, but have yet to go an entire week in playschool/primary school/secondary school/Uni without missing something. I’ve sworn myself to doing a full week when I go back in February and it will be a huge achievement for me if I succeed.

Your turn....

I'll give you a full report when I've been Black Glove and then you need ponder no more.

Then you'll eventually be able to answer my question: 'Bulgaria, just what goes on there!?' - Stargazing, smoking pipes in forests, and...?

hmmmm, 5 things eh?
well, here are my 5 things that i'm thinking of right now...
some of these will probably change in the next few minutes *lol*

1) be a good person
2) get my degree
3) get a job i enjoy doing
4) emigrate to canada
5) live in a house i've helped to design and build

granted, already consider myself a good person, but it's always a good thing to keep up! :)

of course what i'd really like is to rule the world in a fair manner (like america wants to, but without the really BAD ideas that make them look like the nazi party ;) ) but i feel my chances of that are quite slim...
although my llllady DOES work for NATO.. maybe a few well placed missiles? :)

I put 'Bulgian', it should read Bulgarian. You might have thought I meant Belgian. Whichever, Bulgaria is a strange country. Just what goes on there? It would freak me out to be dropped in the middle of a Bulgarian forest, for some reason.

1. To not be allowed within a 100m radius of any child or animal.
2. To stop threatening old people with machetes
3. Not allowed to hide in bushes in the park, during the night, without reason.
4. Stop cooking rats on my stall outside of the primary school.
5. Anthrax.

Oh no, these were my restrictions given in court last month. Sorry.

1. Complete the big, outrageously perverse novel I'm writing.
2. Destroy all that within me that is crap.
3. Find myself a slim woman with outrageously large breasts.
4. Smoke a pipe in a Bulgian forest.
5. Die in a plane crash and be obliterated off the face of the planet (when I'm 77)

My dad.. if that helps! :p

1. Be optimistic for at least a week. Yet to be achieved!

2. Last somewhere. Like Lindgren's. I want to be able to build up my confidence first to be able to stay somewhere for longer than a week! Whether it's at work or college/uni.

3. Speak my mind. I do that, but not a lot. And if I do, it's only when I'm drunk.. which is not right!

4. Become financially stable for the future. A little early to be thinking about that, but sooner the better. I want to be stable. No worries about paying bills, or worrying when the Devil bailiff man is gonna show up at your door.

5. Stick to promises, not let people down.
