Things to do before I turn 30...

This is an interesting question and has set me thinking. I am 45 and had actually "Been there, done that" in most cases. Of course, I didn't do bungee-jumping or deep-sea diving, but I have done white-water rafting, rock climbing, trekking, camping and other adventure stuff and feel I am not inclined to do that any more. I have also visited the best places, mostly in India, which is a wonder-hole of diversified natural tourist spots. I have educated 15 slum children at my home and some of them are now doing jobs. I have also written 2 books and established myself as an author. So in a way, I have rather done what I wanted to do. It's unfortunate in a way too that I really do not have anything I want to do anymore. These days what interests me is growing my own kitchen garden and relaxing with a book or TV serial, the things I missed out all these years when I was racing against time to build my career and raising my kid simultaneously, and also fulfilling all my dreams. I sometimes wonder, am I at the end of my life? Don't I have anything to look forward to anymore, except perhaps the success of my child?

Traveling!!! I so want to travel all around the world. But the problem is "MONEY"! But since it's more fun here in the Philippines, and a lot cheaper than going abroad, I prefer to explore our country first and will be preparing a list of places to travel as soon as I can. Places where we can do some adventures like zip lining (head down), same as what you said: bungee jumping and cliff diving. I've also been dreaming of seeing dolphins. They are cute and intelligent and they don't bite :P.. I hope one day, I can swim with them either in the sea or in the pool. That would be my happiest moment of my life if that day comes. Limit for adventures would be 40-45. Traveling? For as long as I live ^^..

Bungee jumping... niiiiice-that thing I kind of want to do, but my mom would freak out and die in shock if she found this out :D. There are some stuff I'd like to do before I'm 30. -see a play on Broadway!!!! -see one of my favourite foreign bands or artists live -go to Paris -eventually START scrapbooking (not only like planning to do so)

I wanted to do a lot of things like traveling, play musical instruments and more! I would want to travel to a lot of place like Paris, Japan, Korea and ALL AROUND the WORLD! I wanted to play every single musical instruments there have in this world! Especially guitar, piano, violin, drums, flute and more! I have wanted to learn to play all of them! And I even wish to draw manga! Besides, I wish to build a music school which combine with an educational school. That way should be nice! There's a lot more than I can say. How I wish I can done all of them before I turn 30.

I have a lot on my list but I can give you the first 5. First is I'm planning to travel some parts of the country. Second, I'd also love to travel Asia. Third, I'd love to get a tattoo (just a little one though!). Fourth, I'd like to get a house of my own and Fifth, is to save some money and invest it for future use. Wow! That's pretty common, right? What do you think? ;)

Yeah, I had made a similar list when I was a bit young. I wanted to see some place other than N.Y, P.a, and Jersey. Haaaa, I wanted to see Paris. Crazy how everything seems so possible when your younger.

When I finally realized what I wanted to be when I grew up, I set a goal. I wanted to be a CPA by the time I was 40. I started back to school at 35 or so and actually became a CPA 2 weeks before my 40th birthday. There are a zillion things I want to do before it's too late, and I am whittling away at some of them. I've got a long way to go, but I'm enjoying every minute of it!

I think that having a list of things that you would like to do is very important as it means that we would always have something that we could work towards in our lives and we would not feel as lost as we might if we had no aims or dreams. For me, one of the things that I would like to do before I am 30 is have two children, and buy a house so that we can be happy as a family. This is something that my partner wants as well, and he is a little older than me so he is ready now, so I am looking forward to settling down with him for the rest of my life.

I feel that way more than ever. I wish to "live deliberately .... and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived." as Thoreau would say. I am in a rut right now. I work a lot of hours, and have a lot of responsibility outside of work. At my age, and given my circumstances, I face the all-too-fun choices like, "Should I buy my medicine or use that money to buy food?" I am kind of in a funk, and have a bucket list that is out of reach right now. Once things change for me, though, I hope my adventurous side comes back.

It would be great to be able to do those things. I say, go for all of your goals in life. We're not young forever, so go. I have stopped making that list now that I have reached this age. In fact, I just let things happen naturally. But that's me though.

I don't think much about my age, so that many people said that i look so younger than my real age. I just put a goal for every year and try to complete it only, I don't need to wait till 30 or 40 i should do this or that. If we think we can do it now, why don't we do now? don't need to wait till long time later. I also have a list of things to do, but not for at certain age...^^

Yes, as a matter of fact I do. I am pretty much crazy about making to do list as it gives me something I could focus on working on. Setting to complete my checklist before reaching certain age gives me a sense of urgency, hence I tend to become more focus on achieving it one step at a time. I have crossed out several things on my checklist but I still have a handful to work on. I think lists like these makes life all the more exciting and worthy to wake up for every single day.
