Thinking Out Loud - The Bucket List


Bakit Bucket?

So this is where everything started. As stated in my first post, the name, The Bakit List, was partially inspired by the term bucket list. Just before 2011 ended, I decided to create a bucket list of mine to be accomplished during the whole of 2012. Not really sure if bucket lists are to be shared, but, hey, I'm sharing mine anyway. So here it is, and at the end, some notes and comments. :)


List after the jump!






12 months 12 challenges 2012 bucket list!
Listed in no particular order:

1.) Purchase and eat one whole bucket meal of chicken on my own. [ ]

2.) Go to Boracay (again) or Palawan. [ ]

3.)  Purchase something rather expensive (greater than P2000) for myself. [ ]

4.) Watch a PBA Game live. [ ]

5.) Make someone's day memorable. [ ]

6.) Hug (as in HUG) someone. [ ]

7.) Organize an overnight no-sleep party. [ ]

8.) Do something extremely extreme. [X] -> 450ft long Zip Line

Just some notes:

1.) I've been saying this for my whole college life. Totally unhealthy? You bet! Totally yummy? I hope so! Besides, I don't need to eat it in one seating. I could buy it say after lunch, eat some for merienda, eat some more for dinner, then watch a movie while eating the rest! Then finally, wake up with my brand new beak and feathers!

2.) I know, I know, Boracay seems to be "mainstream", but eh who has two thumbs and does not care? This guy! (Yah, i'm pointing to myself using my thumbs.). It is still an awesome place, and really, a very relaxing setting. If not that, Palawan would be a very close second. Really, can't go wrong on either one.

3.) Hey, I just want something for myself. Be it a new suit, or a new GunPla, or maybe a PS3 CD. Le me just want some self pampering.

4.) Pretty sure this would happen sometime around summer. Badly need to watch a PBA game live. It's been years since I last watched one!

5.) Vague indeed, and I've got no idea when to know if I had accomplished this (well, unless they explicitly say it to me.)

6.) Hug as in, Hug, as in, you know, not the partial hug, not a side hug, not a pretend hug. I just want one big hug.

7.) I've got a thing for organizing such things, for having visitors. Maybe I just like having visitors, maybe I am just a laid back person too lazy to leave my home, or maybe both.

8.) Oh wait, I've already done something extreme! (edits the bucket list)

9.) Been there, Done That.

10.) SOBRANG CHEESY! Come on now, I'm that kind of guy. Just give me this one. :D

11.) Just something to experience. I mean, while it seems easier these days, it still isn't everyday that you get to appear on TV or be heard over the radio. So yes, I want to have one of those days.

12.) Just a dare to myself. Something to remember. Nothing too serious, nothing too big or expensive, nothing too cheesy. Just a simple, cheerful dare.

So that's it. Do you think I'll be able to complete my bucket list? How about you? If you were to have one, what would it include? :)
