My Buried Life

the list.


While channel surfing, I stumbled upon MTV's 'The Buried Life'-- a reality series of four friends embarking on a journey of a lifetime all the while checking off their bucket list of 100- things to do before they die.. and it made me realized I have my own bucket list put on hold and is just wasting away.. unchecked. Time to see if I still have the same ideas on life and, more importantly, time to start living it!

And what do you know.. I managed to check 4- things off my list during my Mediterranean vacation getaway back in October 2009:
#25- see the Pyramids of Egypt and go into/ under a tomb
#31- take a cruise anywhere
#49- ride a camel
#63- bargaining at the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul



I am currently attempting to check off #29- learn to knit or crochet.


And with great hopes, tackle the following this year:
#27- have beignets in New Orleans
#34- pay it forward; pay for someone's grocery or lunch
#43- shuck an oyster
#51- trek the Amazon
#58- see Iguazu Falls

Love to know what's on your list!

Enjoyed reading your list! I can't knit but do know how to crochet. Knitting and all your travel plans sound great though. Hope you knock them off the list soon!
