Life list

For awhile now I've been meaning to jot down a list of all the things I want to do in life before I bite it. But then I procrastinate and the internal list just grows. Well, Beth over at Bros Before Hos made a list and it totally gave me a kick in the pants to just get on with it. So here goes:


List of Things To Do in Life

1) Be fluent in another language. At one time this was going to be French, but now I would be happy with anything.
2) Visit Peru/hike the Inca trail. Being obsessed with Peruvian archaeology, this is a must. Especially visits to the Chachapoya, Nazca, and Chavin regions.
3) Lean Intarsia. Okay, so a knitting reference slipped in, but intarsia is the use of 2 or more colours. And this prospect freaks me out.
4) Lean manual. Let me tell you, it SUCKS not being able to drive in the UK only because I don't know how to use the stick.
5) Write a novel. Doesn't have to be good, just something that has a beginning, middle, and end.
6) Own a feather duvet/pillows. These things are AMAZING! So warm! Must def. get one when I actually have a real house
7) Have a trellis of growing roses climbing up the sides of my house. Because when I do own a house one day, I'm gonna pimp it out like Snow White's cottage.
8)Cross country road trip. Totally didn't steal this from Beth, I DO really want to travel all around the country because damn- places like the Deep South, Montana, and North Dakota are seriously like visiting different countries, only stranger and more foreign.
9)Read A History of the Modern World. All 1,192 info filled pages of it. I know, after reading Lies My Teacher Told Me, it's hard to trust these text books, but having read a few chapters in HS, I remember it being much less bias than the standard books. Still totally Euro- centric, but once you keep in mind what to watch out for, it's quite informative.
10)Maintain and continue this list. Yeah, I know I've oftenly said "Oh, that's on my list!" but I totally don't remember about what half of those are. So watch this space!
