Bucket List

What can I say, Brenden inspired me.

This is a list of things that i have wanted to do, and have felt that God has called me to do in my lifetime.  I will add to it or edit it when new things asrise or when i complete one.  Ok, in no particular order, besides the first one, here's my list:

  1. Become the Christian that i know He wants me to be.  Like really listen to him and not be so selfish.
  2. Learn Korean.  Not just the hello or goodbye bits.  I mean i want to be able to converse with a Native speaker and not sound like a 5 year old.
  3. in respect to the last one, i want to go to South Korea.  It's an amazing country with AMAZING people.  I just hope that i find out how and why God is telling me to go.
  4. Graduate with at least a 3.0 GPA.  This is a huge one.  I'll have to really buckle down on my studying.  I've been a slacker up until now.
  5. Become a teacher.  Ok, i know that once i graduate i will be a certified teacher.  But i mean that i want to get a good teaching job.  I want to work in a low SES school ( Socioeconomic Status)  because all my life, since i was a kid myself, I knew that i was supposed to work with underprivileged kids.   Be Jesus for them.
  6. Eat right.  No dieting, no binge eating.   Eating what i want, but in the correct manner that i'm not a blimp by the time i'm 30.
  7. On the same note, start exercising regularly.  It always feels awesome, why do i delay?
  8. Read the entire Bible. Seriously, do you know how many atheists have done this and how little Christians have?   It's sickening.   I'm sickened by myself.
These next few aren't necessarily God called, but are just things that sound awesome:
  1. Go to Paris
  2. Go to Ireland
  3. Go to Germany
  4. hmmm, i'm developing a trend.  Maybe I should just say that i'd like to go on a tour of Europe...
  5. Ride in a Hot Air balloon.
  6. Learn how to Swim.  I'm 21 years old people, and if i were knocked overboard i would drown - even in calm waters... dumb.  
  7. Fall in Love.  i've never been in love.  I hear its grand.
  8. Get Married.  this one could go in the first part, but I don't think i have to be married to be following God.  But I reallllly want to be married.  Preferably to a man that is tall, sings, wants to go to the mission field, loves God, and
  9. Have kids.  I want to adopt.  I may or may not want to give birth. But i do want kids. 
  10. Go scuba diving (gotta learn to swim first.)
  11. Climb a mountain.  Doesn't have to be a huge one.  But I love hiking.  So I think it would be awesome to learn to climb.
Ok, that's all for now.  Oh I can't wait!
