My bucket list

Thinking about all the things I want on my list is taking a while. I’ve done a lot already like live abroad, travel across Canada, or hitch-hike.
Or lie in the middle of the road at night to watch the stars. I was with my friends and the road was still warm from the sun earlier in the day.
Or go skinny dipping! My friend and I decided on a spur of the moment to rush up to Horseshoe Bay to see if we could catch the last ferry to Langdale. We drove up the Sunshine Coast to a friend's cabin and stopped at one of our favourite lakes. We ran down to the beach and we didn’t have ANYTHING with us, not even towels. (Now if I had known the rule as stated in the Hitch Hikers’ Guide to the Galaxy, I wouldn't have had this towel problem) We turned our backs to each other stripped down and ran into the water, WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Anyway, here's my list so far, in no particular order:

1. Learn to golf  did this summer of 2008
