9. Eat Cookies
10. Eat Cake

The only two you'll ever need to do.

Zheer, why is 'falling out of love' something you must do before reaching 30? I think it's something you wouldn't want to do before 30, if you complete number 2 that is.

after drinking milk?  ok.  wait. i don't think that's a good idea.

1. travel
2. get lost for months at a time
3. tell people that you don't remember who you are
4. play the piano at every stop
5. find out where you really want to live (just in case florida is really crappy)
6. find out where the music is (i really like philly- guess it's like london except more parking.  that's a joke, btw, because it's getting kinda hard to find parking here, too)
7. start collecting stuff from antique bookstores
8. collect so much stuff that by age 30 you can start hauking it at sotheby's
9. buy real estate from your profits
10. don't break a leg

What would I like to do before Im 30?


- Secure my finances (property or whatever)

- Have a serious longterm relationship (ie, 2 years plus, live together etc)

- Become comfortable in my own skin

- Learn to play the Liszt Sonata (lol, in my dreams!)

- See more of the world (yeah, you have me on that one)

- Have a child? (not quite sure about that one yet, its dependant on some many others)

- Figure out the KFC secret recipe

- Rid myself of all vices (nearly there)

- Come fully to terms with my past

- Conquere my fear of becoming ill (scares me so  much!)

Ok, I have a list of things. But I don't think they are compulsory to do at all, in the sense to have a complete life. If I die in a accident tomorrow, fine.

But I have a few things I would like to finish or do.


1-Live in an English speaking country for a while to get my English close to native level and to experience foreign culture to/and learn how strange Dutch people actually are.
2-Learn Japanese.
3-Finish at least one of my two major composition projects, or finish a new one. Ie compose a major piece.
4-Finish my two stories, or maybe I should be satisfied with just one. I mean, I have like 7 story ideas with one of them really worked out.
5-In terms of sex, dying as a 'virgin' (strange concept) is ok with me. I am not really interested in sex itself. But I think it would have to admit I would be a little interesting to either see a female I have a personal relationship with, not some stranger, have an orgasm or... cause it myself (ok, that would count as sex, wouldn't it?). But I am far more interested in keeping high quality platonic relationships to really pursuit this. Hey, every man his own fantasy. I guess my sexual fantasies are better than most.
6-Either do a marathon, 'half-a-marathon', 1/4 or 1/2 of a triatlon in a big match. Well I once ran more than half a marathon but not during a match. Problem is, I am totally out of shape right now.
7-Actually finish learning at least some of my favorite piano pieces and maybe perform them for friends or something. I really am a big amateur when it comes to piano.

I don't know any more things.

   6 - Jump out of a plain

What, you mean like go from being two-dimensional to three?  Are you threatening to leap out of my computer zheer?
