June 5, 201312 yr Author comment_160083 I am Incredibly surprised at kind of How successful this topic is .
July 18, 201312 yr comment_163563 It would be nice to complete this before I'm 30 but if not, before death will do. Here we go then (in no specific order). 1. Get through education (GCSE's, College and University). 2. Learn to drive 3. Own a nice car 4. Start a family 5. Go to Monaco for a week and watch the F1 whilst there 6. Do a road trip from North Germany to South Germany visiting all the main theme parks 7. Go down the East coast of the USA 8. Bungee jump off an unnecessarily tall bridge 9. Sky dive 10. Race around the Nurburgring (long course, not the F1 track) 11. Visit all theme parks in Britain 12. Go to Cedar Point just to see what all the fuss is about 13. 2 weeks in China visiting Honk Kong and of course their Disney 14. Stay in an official theme park hotel 15. Go to Scarefest 16. Visit North Italy (1 week skiing in The Alps, 1 week doing the theme parks/sightseeing) 17. Go on a cruise around somewhere hot 18. Holiday in Canada 19. 3 weeks in New Zealand 20. Live life to the full If I do all of this in my lifetime I shall die very happy. I just read this and I used to live in Hong Kong, and I can guarantee you that if you want to go to Disney in Hong Kong, Don't. Unless you are a massive disney fan. Go to Ocean Park Instead. A lot better...
July 25, 201312 yr comment_164063 Prediction that when we go you'll detest the expensiveness which will counteract any form of goodness Denmark will be full of Nope. If anything it made me want to live there more.

There's the list, I've probably missed some numbers but here's most of it. *blows all the dust and cob webs away, OMG A GIANT SPIDER!* It's been two years, might as well update my plans and see what's been achieved so far. 1/ Graduate from university in 2016 with a 2.1 or more 2/ get a summer internship 3/ learn to drive 4/ get a car 5/ reach grade 8 on oboe 6/ do a diploma in music 7/ reach over 1000 subscribers on YouTube 8/ get a girlfriend 9/ find a decent job after I graduate 10/ Get married and have 2 kids 11/ Learn all theme park tunes 12 attend a music festival 13 visit Florida 14/ Visit Europa Park 15/ Visit Efteling 16/ exceed 200 coaster credits (somehow) 17/ visit phantasialand 18/ visit Liseberg 19/ Shambhala Port Aventura 20/ win every reward on tpm's forum rewards From my last list, I've finished grade 8, entered my uni of choice, found another music job, gone abroad at least once somewhere that's not south Spain and generally become more travel independent. Theme park wise, 1&2 have been achieved, 3 has been half achieved as I've 'still' not done Drayton & paultons (one will be hotly on radar next year),4 without doubt has been achieved as I've done 6 woodies now, 6 has been half achieved as I've done Paris but definitely not America. Unsurprisingly the rest of the list has not been achieved. LETS BRING THIS TOPIC BACK TO LIFE!
June 26, 201510 yr comment_212130 Got a steam cleaner yesterday - my life is complete! But seriously, many people have posted things they want to achieve by the time they are 30. Um well I'm past that age so hmmm, in the next few years I want to: 1) continue to improve mentally and work on my fitness 2) quit smoking 3) following on from 1, get a job 4) until I reach 3, volunteer work (looking into cat fostering at the moment) 5) get on a plane 6) get on a plane that is going to actually go somewhere 7) once of meds, learn to drive or at the very least have a couple of lessons 8) campaign for causes I am passionate about 9) I can't sleep so my brain is switching off - maybe sort out my insomnia by reducing caffeine intake

Get a decent job in the creative industry teaching and working on things I love 10. Meet Robert Englund, Tobin Bell and Greg Nicotero 11. Have 2 little humans and get married 12.

Do a road trip around Europe going to allllll the Theme Parks (maybe) (if I get rich) (probably)
June 29, 201510 yr comment_212171 I would love a sausage dog or pug - got a bit obsessed with sausage dogs when I discovered that there is a sausage dog hotel!
June 29, 201510 yr comment_212178 Haha yes! They have a gallery on their website with dogs at different places with captions. One of them is something along the lines of "sausages at sunset"
June 29, 201510 yr comment_212187 Good topic. Seeing as my childhood wish to buy a shed is now complete, I thought now would be a good time to make a proper bucketlist. Go to Vegas See Avicii (festival) Go to Paramount Park Learn to drive Get a job/placement Donate to a good cause Get with a girl in a club Go to the top of the Shard Visit re-imagined Dreamland Join a society (uni) Meet special someone Undertake a property development Night in London with friends Go on holiday with my bestmate Finish my RCT career Go inside Battersea Power Station Ride a strata coaster Do someone a good service Visit Florida (American theme parks) Stand up for myself Stay in a high class hotel Take chances That will start her off. If there is a 23, it will be to avoid any place that is cold.
