Hi, definately not a high schooler. Sorry for butting into your forum, never been here before.
I wrote a bucket list when I was in my mid twenties while sitting in a DUDS N' SUDS laundromat - it was a place you could eat, drink beer , meet people and do laundry. I lost the list this summer when I traveled to go to medical residency and losing the list makes me kinda sad. I was happy to see at that time that I had accomplished about half of my list but had several significant things to do. This is a partial list as my list was two pages long, so this is from memory:
Some things done:
1) Been in 5 movies (actually 6, pretty much extra work. My goal was 5 - only had 2 small speaking roles. My 6th was a made for TV movie on SPIKE TV this fall).
2) Achieved a 5th degree black belt (I actually earned my 6th degree in Japanese Jujutsu in 1996. I have also been in most martial arts magazines in the USA).
3) Finished the grad school I was attending at the time.
4) Earned my MD - (although I wrote this list in the mid 1980's, I finally got my MD Spring of 2006 - it took me roughly 20 years to come to fruition)
5) Went hang gliding
6) Bench press 300 LBS (actually benched 365 LBS in 2003)
Left to do:
1) Climb Mt.Fuji and Mt. Kilimanjaro
2) Be a pro-wrestler (may not happen at my age)
3) Parachute
4) Set a Guinness Book of World Record in something cool - NOT worm eating
Will not happen;
1) Become a Soke of a new martial art - I have not done martial arts since 1998. After ~27 years of continuous martial arts practice ; starting in 1970 (Bruce Lee was still alive) training in Tang Soo Do , I stopped in 1998 - it was very depressing to stop
