Dream As If You'll Live Forever, Live As If You'll Die Today

Tomorrow, my *favorite person* in the entire worldddddd has the day off with me! We had a bunch of things planned for the outdoors... but I realized that the weather will NOT be absolutely amazing, as planned.



I started to look up some new activities, and I found a bunch of awesome things... but I also stumbled upon an interesting concept: "X of Things To Do Before I Die".

"Climb a mountain, skydive, have your portrait painted, be the member of an audience in a TV show, skinny dipping in Southern France...."



I think we've all seen these lists. I hope I speak for most of you when I say that many of us have even made our own!

But I was twelve. And I was a very different person back then. My interests, aspirations, dreams, and personality have changed a great deal since then. Hell, I couldn't even tell you where my list even IS!




But you know what, GOOD!

Lets start from scratch!

I took one of the quizzes that decided how well your life was going. This wasn't measured by everyday accomplishments, but rather, how much you've done on lists such as these.

"Plant a tree, swim with the dolphins, eat jellied eels from a stall in London..."



And you know what? My rating SUCKED! They told me I better *get out* and *get going* And I realized the quiz was right! I'm wasting precious time. And for all I know, I could die tomorrow and this blog would just STOP.

I need to get on with life. I'm going to make a whole new list. I'm going to assemble it neatly and make it official. And I'm going to post it to this site.



As soon as I finish brainstorming my main one hundred or so, I'm going to immediately begin by making the necessary plans to chip my heart away. That's right! Chip, chip, chip away! And I would like to set a specific goal for myself, or rather, a minimum. On average, I must experience X amount of goals within X amount of time. I will write more on this here when I establish my main list and brainstorm the rules....

I can't believe one of those stupid, immature quizzes actually caused some inspiration in my life.


Till we meet again, dear readers....*
