50 Things Before I Die...
When I turned 21, I started a list of 50 things I wanted to do, see, or learn before I die. I'm only up to 32 things on the list. It was actually hard to come up with 50! I havent added anything in several years (I just came across it). I have accomplished several things on the list, at least. Here's the initial 32:
1. Go on a European Castle tour.
2. Go on a cross-country road trip, with no pre-arranged destination.
3. Go on a cruise.
4. Learn how to paint scenery.
5. Write 'my life story', just for myself.
6. Go Skydiving/parachuting.
7. Learn SCUBA.
8. Get a German Shepard.
9. Lose weight and be 'fit'.
10. Play better harmonica.
11. Make and KEEP friends, and treat them golden.
12. Get a Bachelor's Degree.
13. Fill hundreds of helium balloons on a nice day, and let them fly.
14. Help make someone else's dreams come true.
15. Learn as many constellations as possible.
16. Go whale watching.
17. Learn how to analyze my dreams.
18. Find myself.
19. Volunteer for a 'cause'.
20. Fly a long distance, in 'First Class' seating.
21. Get married and have a family.
22. Go hiking in a foreign country.
23. Watch a NASA launching, live.
24. Get some cats.
25. Pet a 'big cat' (tiger, lion, etc..)
26. Write a book about anything.
27. Learn Tai Chi (learn it WELL)
28. Learn how to ski.
29. Hug a Giant Redwood (sequoia)
30. Play piano well.
31. Plant trees and watch them grow.
32. Go to the "Star Trek - The Experience" Las Vegas Hilton
...
I'm going to start thinking of some more things to add to the list. d:)

So... you gonna tell us which of these you've accomplished already? *grin* I can hazard a guess on them but you never know what squirrelly things will come out of my head.... Are you sure you want to risk it? ;)
Crikey, never made a list but done a number of things on yours :-)
2, 3, 8, 9 done and then regressed!, 11, 13, 14, 16, 19, half of 21 and then undone it, 24, 25, 28, 31, and 32; and they were all mostly fun..go for it girlfriend!

Well, I've toured castles in France, England, Scotland, and Wales ... but when I first wrote the list when I was 21, I'm not sure if I was thinking a particular tour just of castles, or just tour castles in general. I havent decided yet how to translate that one. *grin*
7 (tho I need to take the class again in order to get the open water certification), 8 (have now had two german shepherds - Dusty, and now my white girl Willow). 11 (once I care about someone, I try not to let go of them. I still have friends from when I was in the single-digits, age-wise), 14, (17 would just scare the crap outta me), 18, 19, 22, 24, 27 (but I've already forgotten most of it), 30 (but not well enough), 31.
