We've all seen the movie (alright... that was a presumptuous statement... but go with it). The Bucket List.... what we want to accomplish before we die (aka... kick the "bucket"). Thanks to a few amazing friends, I have begun to work on mine. Well, that's not entirely true. I have one from when I was younger that I've been slowly hoping I'd accomplish, but no real action on my part.... that one was more "if fate steps in, I hope this happens" kinda thing.
Well... NOT ANYMORE! I have set out a few goals for myself, and a lot of things I WANT to do, try or experience! Now, if I listed something here, it means that somewhere.... deep down...I want to do these things. Several of them are insanely terrifying, and it'll probably take an act of divine intervention to get me to do it.... that's where some SERIOUS encouragement is going to be required!
I think that SOOOO many of these things would be a BLAST to do with friends.... so I'm posting it on here, so my friends can jump in and choose which things they would love to give a whirl too! I'll also (probably) be adding new things to this list as they arise... so check back in regularly to see if I've added anything new that you think would be fun to try!

Love your list! I'll have to think of the ones I want to do with you. I've always wanted to take a pottery class. They offer them through Lehi Arts and in AF by the school at an art place.
First, did you know I used to live in Germany and attended University there and speak almost fluent German?
BUCKET LIST: Rock climb 5.10 NO PROBLEM> I'd love to coach you to that.
Hot Air Balloon: I have such fond memories of going as a child, I would love to go again. I believe Park City has flights.
NYC: I would love to take a long weekend and head to NYC with a friend. Seeing a show would be awesome. I've been once before and I saw Sweet Charity and Spelling Bee...awesome!
Going to Germany...well, of course! I'm always up for going to Germany...castle...I know some good ones I could take ya too!
Next Christmas, we are going to Australia...wanna come with? I can't guarentee you can hold a Koloa, because in New South Wales, there is a law against it, but you can pet them. My parents used to live in Sydney and this is the wild life park we went to. http://www.symbiozoo.com.au/
Climb y Mountain...I've never done this, but have wanted to. As long as its not a summer day, I'm all for this!
Ski...wanna come out to Keystone and SKi with me?
Reading your list was inspiring. Now I want to make one. Mark them off so you seeing the accomplishments that you have made. It's interesting to see which ones on your list I have done.
NYC Boradway I was lucky enough to do. Statue Of Liberty too. But you are closterphobic, so I'd think long and hard before you walk up to the crown..
Love the list. I think I should make one too!
