Society & Culture Your Bucket List Five.

[Luvs2Slash]

List five things you really want to do before you die. Something because of one reason or another, you haven't been able to do.

It has to be within the realms of reality, or within your control if you like. If you say shag Lara Bingle, thats probably never going to happen, unless your Fevola or very rich .

Here's mine.

1. Sit at the Gee and watch a G.F. live. Particularly if my team are playing.

2. Game fishing in far North Queensland.

3. Go to the Caribbean and watch the Aussie Test Cricketers on tour. Mmmmm all those lovely dark skinned ladies

4. Drive around Australia at my leisure, and see as much of our beautiful country as possible.

5. See U2 live in concert.

Nice one, they're definitely delicious

 

[Brad Roo]

1. Appear in a movie (I have already been published, appeared on television and been a guest speaker on radio)

2. Watch another North flag.

3. Jam with The Rolling Stones.

4. Finally get a century in a cricket match (I am a bowler and have been out on 91 three times)

5. Die from the gunshot wound of a jealous husband on my 101st birthday.

 

[Roos4eva]

1- North winning another flag.

2- Work a job that I feel good about.

3- Be reasonably successful with my band, ie record an album and play gigs frequently.

4- Live in Europe (most likely doing this at the end of the year).

5- See Liverpool win the EPL (at least I've seen North win the flag twice, and I get the feeling North will do it again before this happens).

 

[Power21]

Man, ive got some living to do.

1. Boxing day test, preferably against the poms.
2. See a GF live, obviously if port is playing then great but thats but of my control.
3. Live in New York, or another big city in the states.
4. Win another premiership, either cricket or footy, best feeling in the world.
5. Kids one day.

[Team Mo']

I've been two a boxing day test, seen a Carlton premiership, won premierships and travelled a fair bit.

1. Probably from a career perspective I'd like to get into the job I'm currently aiming for.
Architecture; once there I'd like to add some some to the Melbourne skyline. Very long term but I'd feel pretty great to say to someone that "I designed that building!!"

2. See a baseball, NBA, NFL and maybe NHL game live in the states. Also see an EPL game, preferably a bigger club.

3. Sail a yacht around a far island..docking at any beach I liked and stopping at towns I've never even heard of. (Can you do this?)

4. Watch a cricket match at Lords. Also would like to play cricket in England for a season...here we would be lucky to play 14-15 games whereas over there they can play up to 50-60 games in just one season. Also travel around Europe for a bit.

5. Kids not really high on priority list so maybe shag a celebrity. (If she gets pregnant then I can deal with that...)

[Leper]

in no particular order

drive around australia

sing one of my own songs in front of a crowd
ride a bike from for a week across vietnam
ride my bike from sanfran to LA

Do this (down the coast highway of course; north to south to get tailwind!).

I think I've posted this on here before but I rode Seattle - Tijuana (Mexico) // Anchorage (Alsaska) to Calgary in 1996.

I've done a whole lot of shit from living / working in Thailand / Vietnam / Indonesia for a combined total of about 10 years; to having 3 great kids; good job and all that good shit, but still consider that bike trip one of the 3 or 4 greatest things I've ever done. All inspired by Forrest Gump

SF-LA is a great leg of it, but things like the redwoods in Northern California; Canadian Rockies; Oregon coast; coming around the north headland to see the Golden Gate Bridge / SF whilst listening to Hunters and Collectors.... I could go on. All good. Do it.

 

[Leper]

As an aside, I remember having this "do before you die list" conversation with a few work colleagues and one guy couldn't help but bring up the whole "give it to her in the dirt box" thing as top of his list.

Out of 4 of us in the car at the time, 2 (both Pommies ) had ticked that box.

Why he didn't just want to bungee jump at Macchu Picchu (sp?) in the nude is beyond me.

 

[Caesar]

As an aside, I remember having this "do before you die list" conversation with a few work colleagues and one guy couldn't help but bring up the whole "give it to her in the dirt box" thing as top of his list.

Is it weird that I'm a guy and have never remotely felt the need to do this?

Not saying it's a bad thing, just that it's probably the one aspect of 'normal' (i.e. non-fetish) hetrosexual sex that I simply can't see the attraction in.

 

[HSSB]

Some people are very ambitious(sp?), but hopefully they can do everythng that they wish.

 

[NAUGHT5]

1. Waterski on the Yarra, through Melbourne City - It must be illegal (Anyone know?) outside of Moomba so it probably wont happen. I just reckon it would be awesome.

2. Go to South Africa, England, Las Vegas, Nepal (Mt.Everest) and the Greek Islands.

3. Go on a road trip, for however long i want, and go wherever i want.

4. Watch EPL, NBA, NHL, MLB, NFL games.

5. Watch Carlton beat Essendon in a Grand Final (even just a regular season match would be enough at this stage).

 

[BWST]

Two things that i would have added to my 5 but couldn't, because it would be 7

Is try and climb Mt Everest........how awesome would it be, standing on the top of the world. At the same height jets fly at.

Shark cage diving. Three hours drive away from where i live. You can dive in a cage amongst big Great White Sharks. I want to do that.

 

[BWST]

5. Watch Carlton beat Essendon in a Grand Final (even just a regular season match would be enough at this stage).

Would actually be quite good to see a traditional Carlton v Essendon G.F.

Imagine the crowd.......they would be hanging off the rafters.

 

[Hard Ball Get]

1. Win a flag
2. See the dogs win a flag
3. Get married
4. Have kids
5. Travel as much as I can. (been around USA and Aus)
