Your Bucket List

[veN]

I haven't seen the movie (but would like to). Following a conversation I had with my family over dinner this Sunday, I'm curious what people have on their own personal "bucket list". It's not necessarily something you write down anywhere, but what's something you keep in mind that you would jump at doing if given the chance, or would actively seek out if not given the opportunity.

Share only what you're comfortable with. Some things are too personal.

Compile a list, or just mention a thing or two :)

I'll start... I'd like to fire a gun, and I'd like to donate hair to an organization that makes wigs for people with cancer (ex: Locks For Love).

To me, it's the same thing.

I think of them as things to "get on with doing" and not things to leave till later (or till too late).
