Hey Dani (:
I think this is a really interesting thread, you're right, everyone has something and I think it'll be pretty awesome to hear what everyone has to say, so thanks for posting this (:
For me there's a couple of things...
There's someone I really want to meet. She knows who she is. And that same person, I want to take her to Porth Kidney Sands and let her watch sunrise over Godrevy light house and then in the same day take her to Porthmeor and let her watch sundown... its honestly the most beautiful thing in the world and every time I see it my faith in existance and epiphany and humanity is restored. I want that for her.
Also, I want to go home, when I work out where home is I'll let you know. But one day I want to be somewhere and think... y'know what? I'm home, I'm really home.
Okay thats way too deep for one day, but there you go (:
You are the one, the one who lies next to me, Whispers "hello, I missed you quite terribly"

Hey Dani
I'd like to be able to ride every rollercoaster in the world before I died. I'd also like to eat the biggest steak in the whole world (medium rare of course )

I'd love to travel the world before I die. Mainly Europe but I'd love to see every landmark and every place that has some sort of interesting story behind it. I think it would be really interesting. :]

before i die i want to fall in love with someone who loves me.
i want to spread the truth, and lead multiple people to God.
i want to open a business for teens who need help.
not a place they have to go, a place they want to go.
a place where they can go when in times of trouble,
without it being called "running away."
i want to sing and act in a musical.
not even in a movie.
just a musical for the town would be fine with me.
i want to be someone that people can trust and rely on, no matter what.
i want them to know that i'm always there.
i want to change someone's life. for the best.
but most of all, i want to be happy.
When you can't find your way home, and when life gets too hard to face on your own. I will stand as a light through the darkness unknown, I will walk with you, so you're never alone.

Oh, good one!
Hm... I'm going to see the world (Or at least part of it)... Mostly Russia and North America, but also Namibia, India, Australia, Chile, Norway, Nepal....
I'm going to learn to speak English properly.
I'm going to read Dostojevskij in Russian.
I'm going to live in England.
I'm going to live in Berlin.
I'm going to write a book... or at least try.
I'm going to have a dog.
I'm going to love him forever, but that's somewhat of a given...
I'm going to pass on all that love and affection certain people gave me.
I'm going to tell my friends what they mean to me.
I'm going to smoke a joint on some beach in Holland. (That will be the first and only time for me to do drugs).
I'll tell a lot of stories.
I'll remember those I've lost already.
...
The list goes on.

I'm not really an ambitious person in the sense that I want to travel the world or climb mountains or anything, I just hope to get a job that I'd enjoy that involves my creativity where I don't feel unaccomplished (maybe author, something in video game development, etc.). I just pray that I never get a desk job :/

I'd like to learn:
How to shoot a gun
Dance ballet and tango
How to ride a motorcycle
Write (and actually finish a story, lol)
Karate and pressure points
The piano and/or violin
Yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers
But everything that lives is born to die
And so I say to you that nothing really matters
And all you do is stand and cry.
Music is life. Start living.

Seriously... If its one of those cute little bookstores where everythings just kinda thrown together and so real, compared to waterstones, smiths etc... I might actually move in.
There's one in my town and I kinda live there. Partly because the woman who owns it makes awesome coffee and partly because she lends me books :P

-I want to have a beautiful (asian) family. Lol (jk) I mean about the asian part, what happens, happens.
-I want to become a gym teacher.

When all your friends have come and gone,
And the sun no longer shines,
And the happiness for which you long is washed away like an ocean's tide,
When all the hard times outweigh the good,
And all your words are misunderstood,
When the day seems lost from the start
You must follow your heart,
You must follow your heart.

Publish at least one piece of writing.
Become a doctor, or a writer. At least one of the two.
Make a difference in someone's life.
Realize something that benefits me as a person.
Make a good friend who will stick by me.
Be a good friend to someone else.
Get married, have a family.

I actually have a list of 50 things I want to do, but heres a snapshot:
I want to get married in lapland in a massive dress, with my best friend giving me away. I then want to adopt a kid and see them do well in school. I want to go to every continent for at least a week. And I want to buy a house with a graveyard in the garden .
faith is a bluebird that you see from afar
it is real and as sure as the first evening star
can't touch it, or buy it, or lock it up tight
but its there just the same
making things turn out right

1. Have sex
2. Finish the story I've been writing for the past 4 years
3. Have my own family and house complete with pets
4. If I ever get enough money I'd love to build a wildlife park similar to a safari but without cars, people would walk on platforms above the animals.
There's probably more but I don't really know anymore at the moment.

1. I want to make a difference in someone's life.
2. Find someone to love me for me. All of me.
3. Tell everyone who has ever told me that I couldn't, that I did.
4. Find the strength in myself that everyone else sees.
5. Become the first female NHL hockey coach.
Sometimes in our lives we all have pain We all have sorrow But if we are wise We know that there's always tomorrow
All you need is love & Love is all you need

I want to take this girl up to the Himalayas and make her stay outside all night and watch the stars, you know who you are.
I want to believe that I am strong.
I want to go to at least base camp of mount Everest.
I want to make a difference to people and how they view their lives.

I want to change someone's life. For the better.
Hell, I actually want to change the world. For the better.
I want to live the American dream. Husband. Kids. House in the suburbs. All of it.
I want to go back to the Mediterranean Sea and retrieve what I left. [:

Most importantly... I want to make a difference.
I want to get married to my soulmate.
And have sex. That sounds like lots of fun.
Publish my memoir.
Visit my relatives in Poland, as well as Auschwitz.
when you love and laugh abundantly you live a beautiful life.

Interesting...
I want to save a life, but not in a grand gesture. I want to work as a research scientist making vaccines and saving millions of people around the globe. Ok, maybe unrealistic, but if I can help somebody by utilising my very privileged education, that would make me very happy.
