This morning, while driving to work, I somehow started thinking of the movie The Bucket List. And I decided to make one of my own! And I also thought why did I not think of this before. It is a great idea to have a list you can refer to and keep marking items off the list as you finish them. Gives you a feeling of satisfaction. Well, to me, anyways.
So, I started building my list. Here is what I came up with. I will keep on adding to this list as things keep coming to my mind but here is a start :-
- Do a Parachute Jump from an Airplane.
- Ride in a Hot Air Balloon.
- Buy a brand new BMW X5 (or a better model by the time I am ready to buy).
- Go to Niagra Falls.
- Go to Las Vegas.
- Do a couple of hours Flying and try and do a solo flight one day. Although flying Solo is not as strict as just flying.
- Bungee Jumping (Done this already!) – but need to do again.
- Go on a Cruise Holiday for atleast 2 weeks straight. Never had that long a holiday that didnt involve work and didnt involve family visits.
- Visit Leh Ladakh (http://www.ladakhadventure.com/) in India – possibly in a self-driven 4×4 vehicle.
- Visit atleast once all the Seven Wonders of the World.
- Have the dedication and devotion to lose weight and bring my weight according to my BMI. This is a big one!
This is it for now but I might add more to this list. So, how about others? Does anyone maintain such a list? I would love to see what others have on their list.
P.S. – For those who dont know or have not seen the movie – A Bucket list is a list of things you want to do before you die.

Go to a Bruce Springsteen concert (seats within the first five rows), learn how to ride a motorcycle (and actually get the license for it!–but not necessarily buy one), learn how to sail, buy a 1994 convertible Saab 900 (in great condition), travel to Barcelona…That’s all I can think of off the top of my head!

I love Niagra Falls, it’s an amazing site to see. I have about 200 bucket list items listed on my website, including milk a cow, stand under a waterfall and go dog sledding. I can’t wait to complete them all!

Las Vegas, Bungee jump and a hot air balloon ride are all on my bucket list that I have recently started.
Visiting the Seven Wonders of the World would also be a great addition! You can take a look at my list on my blog if you’d like.
Good luck with it all,
Darren
