Bucket List

Okay, so I believe I've mentioned my favorite web series ever, Jake and Amir.  But man, they are really funny and I just feel like I need to share this.  Recently they came out with a video called "Bucket List", and the content is a little crude, but there are SO many quotable moments I can't even believe it.  Ridiculous.  I'm not going to say any of them right now because they would be completely misunderstood out of context, but just watch it.  Watch it.  Now. Really, I've linked it four times now so I think it's about time you tune in.  Anyways, I feel like after Amir Blumenfeld came up with such a spectacular, although incomplete, bucket list I could come up with one of my own.  But I tried.  And I can't.  So I found one.

• Break a world record.  This one seems a little bit unrealistic to me.  There are only so many records out there to break and chances are you don't have one.  Little bit crazy to expect this much from yourself I do believe.  And if you don't achieve it, your life seems incomplete.  I'd rather have a super easy bucket list so I can feel super fulfilled early on.
• Experience weightlessness.  Really?  This is even more unrealistic than the last one.  I thought bucket list items were along the lines of "run a marathon" or "do volunteer work", and unless you're an astronaut your basically setting yourself up for failure.  Sorry.
• Skydive.  Much more realistic and pretty daring.  I think this one is a pretty good item.  Just hope this bucket list item isn't the last thing you'll ever do...
• Own my own business.  That's a pretty good goal, except maybe they should add "own my own successful business", because no one wants their bucket list item making them go broke.  That would be unfortunate.
• Donate blood.  That's ridiculous.  If that's on your bucket list and you haven't already done it you're just plain lazy.  Simple as that.
• See the Top 100 Films of All Time.  Pretty decent.  Maybe I should do that one before I die.
• See AOL's List of Movies to See Before You Die.  Or that one.  Unless they meant just see the list, because that would be super easy and take about five second.  Life achieved.
• Host a family reunion and trip to Disney.  Kind of sad that your goal is to go to Disney World, but I kind of wish someone would have had this goal when I was growing up seeing as the closest thing I got to an amusement park before eighth grade was Camp Snoopy.  I could've used a trip to Disney World.
• Be a contestant on a game show.  I don't know about that one.  I usually end up either feeling really bad for contestants or just plain uncomfortable watching their awkward mannerisms on television.  I don't think I'd wish that upon anyone, unless I thought they could win Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
• Become a Millionaire.  I guess this one could be relatively easy if that whole game show thing works out for you.  And money is good I guess.  I'll take this one.
• Sell my craft on E-bay.  Sorry.  That is extremely easy.  I could make a friendship bracelet and sell it on e-bay easily.  Someone will want it.  This one isn't exactly shooting for the stars.
• Learn to drive a stick shift.  Yeah.  Me too.
• Write a book and publish it.  Hey, that was one of Amir's goals too.  But you would know that because you watched the clip.  Obviously.
• Go on a blind date.  Really.  That's your love goal.  That's sad.
• Go to all NASCAR races.  No thank you.  Plus I'm pretty sure that going to all of anything in unrealistic.  And what sane person wants to spend that much time watching NASCAR?
• Run a marathon.  Yeah.  That's what I thought.  A normal bucket list item.

This list also suggests adding a timeline, so maybe confine that e-bay goal to, sell my craft on e-bay within the next fifteen minutes.  That seems a little bit better.  This complete list can be seen here.

So that gave me very few suggestions for my own bucket list, but maybe it just takes time to come up with personal things that will really make your life feel fulfilling.  That sounds like something that might take a bit of time, but going to Disney World sounds like a good start.  Maybe I'll get around to my bucket list later, but for now I'm optimistic that there will be a later in which I can make and complete my bucket list.
