Bucket List: a work in progress...

Motivated by Jack Nicholson and an amazingly hard year, I started making a bucket list just because I can. These are the things I would like to accomplish before the Rapture:

• learn Mandarin Chinese
• take dance lessons again
• go sea kayaking
• get a mountain bike and use it... alot (begun: Nov.6, 2009)
  
• motorcycle/scooter through every state in the US (Texas)
  
• live in a foreign nation as a missionary
• introduce people to Jesus who never heard the Gospel before
• get advanced degree in science
• invent something
• go on a Paleozoic research expedition
• stay in a monastery
• build an energy efficient home capable of being off the grid
• travel to Platte River Valley in Nebraska to see the spring sandhill crane migration
• kiss someone who kisses me back
• ...?
