Top Ten Thurs. - Bucket List

I'm sure you've all seen the previews to The Bucket List.  With that being said, here are the Top 10 things I want to do before I "kick the bucket".

  1. Finish my degree
  2. Travel to the Motherland
  3. Clear 6 figures (net)
  4. Design & build my home from the ground up
  5. Learn to fluently speak a foreign language, preferably Italiano or Espanol
  6. Learn to drive a stick shift
  7. Finish my novel & get published
  8. Visit all the US States
  9. Design my own wardrobe
  10. Retire while I'm still healthy & {hopefully} have enough loot to really enjoy it.

Some of these are a no-brainer, while a few will take some work, but dammit I'm determined!

What about you?

  1. Im not supposed to be on here... but i accidently logged on... but anyway...

    Before I kick the bucket.... I definitely wanna get right with God..... now on to my 10

    1 Definitely the 6 figure thing would be super fantastic... But to be debt free is my first goal...
    2 Be a property rehabber.. I got my own tools and I've watched enough Flip That House episodes.. (im handy like that...
    3 To one day go shopping for clothes with my mom and love it... because I hate shopping and she loves it, and it would make her so happy to see me happily shopping... uuuuggghhhh
    4 Host a Passionate for Pink Party... I dont know what that includes... But I love PINK oh so much..
    5 Actually to produce and direct my own motion picture production... Far stretch, but it can happen... Workng on that faith thing..
    6 Sit down and have lunch with Oprah, without her staff and audience... I would really just like to talk to her.
    7 Find the time and money to take my nieces and nephews on a travel spree.. and not just down to mississippi to see aunt Maybaline... Kids soooo need to get out of their comfort zone and see the world... Its huge...
    8 Fly a kite right... Yeah you thinking what the hell?... But that shit is hard to do, at least doing it right that is...lol
    9 Learn to tell people NO... I cant seem to say that... and it sucks big time...
    10 Find lil Miko and kick his ass for beating me up when we were 7 years old... in the rain at that... Im still livid.

  3. I guess I can think of loads of things to do but here are a few I would put at the top ten:

    1. Take a long cruise with my sweetheart - And when I say long I mean long like a couple of weeks maybe even a month and just take on the sea he and I.

    2. Successfully open up my own business and continue to keep it running without worrying if it's going to go bust.

    3. Build my house from the ground up. I have blue prints already waiting and I know exactly how I want to design all my bathrooms and my backyard.

    4. Marry of course and have a couple of children to mesh with that "American Dream" people are all running after.

    5. Flip some property! Yes i am a house flipper show watcher as well and man this looks fun and very profitable.

    6. Design a line of purses,handbags, luggage etc. I want my name on something that will be as popular as Coach and Dooney. giggles

    7. Organize a non-profit organization that helps people to get jobs, housing, etc that will help them get on their feet or out of what ever slump they are in and into a better way of living.

    8. Buy a car that is going to work, get me to point A, B, C. and anywhere else I want to go.

    9. Travel to a couple of other countries and learn a language, try different foods.

    10. Save enough money to leave for my children to get somethings of their own started, possibly a business or two.

    3. Open a shelter that will provide all kinds of support services for women and children of abuse and neglect.

    4. I, too, have the blueprints to a house I want built from scratch. I want to get that done before I am too old to enjoy it.

    5. Visit Paris, Rome, Greece, Morrocco, and Egypt.

    6. Record a demo of some original songs.

    7.Become debt free (student loans, credit cards, car notes, etc.) If its not wealth building debt... I want to be free!

    8. Become an ordained minister and a licensed therapist (this is what the masters degrees are for.)
