Bucket List

An amazing woman I have blogged about before ElizabethPW recently posted her bucket list. I have been thinking about mine ever since and so feel lead to share mine here. I have included the things that I want to do, along with some of the things I have already crossed off my list.

By the way, a bucket list is just a list of everything you want to do before you kick the bucket.

  • Taken my girls do DisneyWorld
  • Gotten my nose pierced
  • Had babies
  • Graduated from college
  • Lector at church
  • Have my own business
  • Earned a car in Mary Kay

 

Things I have yet to do:

  • Teach/Speak infront a large audience (300+ people)
  • Run a marathon
  • Visit 5 of 7 continents
  • Go skydiving
  •  Go scuba diving
  • Get an MBA
  • Go to the Olympics
  • Teach a yoga class
  • Pay off my mortgage
  • Learn to play bass guitar
  •  Learn to play piano
  • Take singing lessons
  • Ziplining

  • Nice list Martha! I need to get to work on mine... I think I have like 3 items.

    The only thing I'll say about learning bass: It's a different beast from six-stringed guitar! It's not easier or harder, just different. I really miss it and definitely need to make more time in my schedule to find some people to jam with again. So... if you're looking at it as "It's just a guitar with 4 strings..." well... I take offense to that ;-) GOOD LUCK and DON'T GIVE UP!

    i told Elizabeth, my mom teaches piano...should get her to make a video first lesson :)
  • marvelousmartha
    I would love that! Thanks for reading Alison!
  • So awesome! So ... what are you going to do first? :)
  • marvelousmartha
    I've been doing yoga so that I can get better so that I can eventually teach (= Working on running also so that I can start training for the marathon too. (= Planning on working on the travel starting in 2011. Already been to Canada and Mexico so that is something (= And I think I will start on the piano sooner than later. Already have piano and books at home, just never have sat down to do it. Think that is first!
  • Don't forget to add Ziplining :) That's a hop-skip-and-a-jump away :)
  • marvelousmartha
    It is my goal for my birthday - in September - to be able to go ziplining!
  • Very cool list!
    I've already skydived, spoke in front of a large audience, scuba certified, and play some piano. My guitar skills are weak, and I'm desperately overdue for some singing lessons :)

    I'm signing up to run a marathon in June- want to sign up for the same one? We can make sure each other is still training properly.

    Need to start slow with the marathon training....hoping for next year. Working on a 5k first. Is that too boring for you?
  • People having goals, challenging themselves, and actually doing something... not slow at all. 5K was on my 2006 Goals list, and it got done. I didn't place that great, but it was great knowing that I ran a 5k... something I had a goal to achieve. Since then I've run 10k/ 1/2 marathon distances.. though, none in an official race....MArathon this year though should be an official one, and... http://www.warriordash.com/ seems like fun!
