My next birthday is three months away. Here is a list of things I’d love to do before I turn 24.
Some are first times, some not. Some are easy and get-able, others tough, unreachable. But all are things I totally love and are possible.
Time and again, I shall come strike the ones I complete. The leftovers, if any, shall find their way into the next list.
- bake a cake from scratch
- make a baby quilt
- save money for tuition fees
- make a trip to Mahabalipuram
- read a classic
- attend a school/college reunion
- hold a puppy in my arms
- paint a clay article
- donate blood
- get a new ear piercing
- run a 5K
- visit a pottery painting store
- make a single, strong new year resolution (and keep it, of course)
- go to cinema with father (and buy his choice of flavored popcorn!!)
- visit a gurudwara
- eat sushi
- fill the piggy bank regularly (and break it open on the birthday)
- (try to) write a poem
- write and post a letter to someone
- get a sandstone fitted finger ring
- learn to make fish curry
- eat ‘death by chocolate’ at corner house ice-creams
- make my own set of bookmarks
- visit underprivileged children on a festival day

Congratulations for opening your account :-)
Sounds like the “Labours of Hercules” list…
Hope you get them all!
When you cross out an item, add one more and keep the total at 24, till you cross 24 … then add one more …
1, 9, 12, 14, 16, 21, 22 are all about food. A third of the things you want to do in your life, involve food ……. just saying … ;)
#9 is not about food anymore :P
unless you are a blood thirsty vampire …
(you didn’t say how to donate blood) …
food nahi to drink hi sahi ….
Pavan:~ It involves u in quite a few. So tell me, when are u feeding me sushi?
kundu:~ m surprised u commented on this page almost a week later!! :P And about the food part, hats off to ur analysis. M sure no one else would have figured that out!! ;)
For number 5, read a blog called “Susurrus of my soul” and then cross it out. Ho gaya.
Well, I had not seen this blog before, that’s why.
Sorry if I comment a lot more than I should be … But I do like commenting :) .. I also want you to do and learn the best of things. And for that I’m ready to take anything from anyone. Including you.
you may comment as much as you wish. no stoppin you. But don’t blame me for not understanding most of them :P
I’ll take my chances.
You did “visit” the pottery painting store, so strike it off ..
Guess, out of the list, the No. 3 looks the most difficult now, at the rate which we are goin :-P
