This is a bucket (list). |
So, now that I've passed the big 3-0, it's time to look to the future. So, as I indicated in my previous post, I would be making an updated one with items I want to complete before 35. And here it is.
1. Finish a writing project
As indicated before, it doesn't need to be published. But I want to at least say I have a version that can be presented to a potential published.
2. Do some volunteer work.
3. Be more active with my blog writing
4. Watch, at least half, Oscar-winning films (Picture, Directing, Acting, Writing).
5. Watch, at least half, Razzie winning films (same categories).
6. Read my books I haven't read yet.
Audiobooks have been a big help with this one.
7. Watch my movies, I haven't watched yet.
8. Watch/listen to all Doctor Who episodes.
9. Take a fitness class.
10. Practice video editing.
I've started this in a small way.
11. Make at least five dishes from the Kent Rollins cookbook and Babish's second cookbook.
An edited down version from the last one. I'm also going to try and cook a lot from Babish's "Basics with Babish" series. I'm doing to expand my cooking knowledge and skills.
12. Get under 200 pounds.
13. Make a voice acting demo.
14. Walk three different hiking trails.
15. Read great-uncle's service letters.
Out of all the items I didn't complete last time around, this is the one I feel guilty about not finishing.
16. Visit the statues dedicated to Jim Henson, Mr. Rogers, and Dr. Seuss (a new addition).
17. Frame my pictures and posters.
18. Learn a song on the ukulele (and mandolin as a bonus).
19. Organize my books and movies.
20. Paint a Bob Ross-style painting
21. Learn to make at least three different cocktails.
22. Bake the GBBO technical challenges.
I've decided to tackle this one category of bakes because this challenge was to test the baker's knowledge. So, I feel like this will help me with certain aspects I need to work on.
23. Visit California.
On the previous list, I indicated I wanted to visit Los Angeles. I honestly want to visit almost any part of it.
24. Travel abroad.
I hope to travel to the UK in particular. I'd love to see all of the UK but I'd be satisfied with visiting London.
25. Learn to tap dance.
I don't know why, but I've always wanted to tap dance.
26. Walk 10k steps and/or 5 miles a day.
27. Go vegetarian or vegan a least once a week.
I don't plan on going full vegetarian or vegan, but I think going meat/dairy-free at least once a week will help me lose weight.
28. Watch 20 films from the Criterion Collection.
29. Bake 14 recipes from Hoosier Mama pie cookbook.
I picked 14 because pi (3.14), duh!
30. Cook at least one recipe from the other cookbooks I have.
31. Practice meditation.
32. Spend less time on the internet.
I've noticed I spent a lot of time just loitering around on Facebook and such. So, I'm going to try and reduce my time significantly. I haven't set a specific time limit for myself yet, but regardless, less time is better.
33. Start a podcast.
I started working on notes for the premise of it. I just need to fine-tune the details and make sure I have the equipment/set up.
34. Learn one of the following instruments:
- harmonica (blues harmonica in particular)
I've always wanted to learn because it always seemed like a cool instrument and style.
- drums
I started to take lessons a long time ago but for some reason, I stopped. Let's fix that.
- piano
I live in a house with a piano in it, I have relatives and friends who play, there's a lot of piano songs I love, so why not?
35. Listen to all (if not a majority) of the musical soundtracks on this tierlist.com challenge.
Since taking part in community theater I've realized my knowledge of musicals is severely minimal. Recently, a friend shared her version of the "Ultimate list of musicals Tier List" on tierlist.com. Realizing I hadn't listened to a lot of these (or heard of them) I decided to listen to the complete soundtrack. Obviously, it's not the same as seeing the shows, but I at least want to know about the songs from it.
