Do you know anyone that talks about stuff they want to do or places they want to go, but they never do them or go there? I think I am turning in to one of those people and it scares the hell out of me. I have this huge mental list of all these goals I want to accomplish and I haven’t done any of them. I keep finding excuse after excuse to not do something. Well I’m sick of it. I’m sick of waiting for life to begin. I mean what in the hell am I waiting for? There is no such thing as the perfect time, place, or circumstance. I know that. Here are just a few goals I want to accomplish in my lifetime*:
1. Learn American Sign Language
2. Take a train trip across country
3. See a Broadway show
4. Learn to speak German fluently
5. Earn my Master’s
6. Be published
7. Live in a foreign country for a year
8. Travel through Europe
9. Go to Alaska
10. Read all 100 Greatest Novels
11. Go to San Diego Comic Con
12. Participate in a Zombie Walk
***List is subject to grow***
Now that I have the list in front of me I really don’t know what I have been waiting for, so I can either be one of those people who only talk about what they want to do or I can be one of those people who does them. I think I know which one I want to be.
