But I'm mad lazy and not good with words when it comes down to it. The concepts are easy to come by, but to physically commit words to physical or virtual page proves to be so difficult. I also tend to overthink, which isn't conducive to "spitting it out."
But I'll spit this out. I keep finding myself thinking of things I want to do, and the options are vast. On one hand, the world is mine for the taking; I have no legal commitments that hold me back from picking up and moving to New Zealand or quitting everything and just honing my cello "skill." But there are people in my life I can't just leave, there are other opportunities that I want to look into. So as freeing as it is to have options, it's debilitating. I've been stuck in this rut between obligation and desire, and I can't really decide what fits where. But the words "why not" keep coming to mind.
But I keep thinking of random things that I think I really would like to do or look into. Maybe I can keep this as a list of accountability, and the virtual world of blogspot can be my witness. (It's weird that I'm pretty sure no one at all I know sees this anymore, but it's completely open for anyone to come on and see what I write. Weird.)
So here's the first draft of my list. A few I have already accomplished, which is guhreat:
- Plant and maintain my own garden. Both my grandmothers did it while they were alive, on eastern Pennsylvania soil, and their produce was amazing. It's possible, but I'll have to wait until I have my own plot to plant in.
- Wait tables.
- Sail a boat.
- Slap someone.
- Be a bridesmaid.
- Jump off a waterfall.
- Chop off my hair (think Natalie Portman).
- Go skinny dipping.
- Get lifeguard and CPR certified.
- Fry an egg perfectly.
- And a short-term goal (but quite unrealistic): before the month of April is gone, wake up early and go to the gym ONCE before work.
