50 things
The BBC has a list of 50 Things to do in life, and I am considering it. Since I have already skydived, trekked in the rainforest, walked on an active volcano, visited a war zone, experienced a waterfall, I have about 47 other yet to do.
I owned Siberian huskies, though. That should count to #38, is only a little.

Hey hun! I think being in a war zone seems totally cool, but I looked over the list and many of those nature oriented things, I have no interest in. I don't know, some of those things you should do before you die say NOTHING about who you are as a person. Before I die I want to help someone else, I want to contribute to the world around me, serve humanity, laugh a whole lot. Whether or not I make it to such and such place doesn't matter, unless I am lead there for a reason. Does this make sense or does it just sound corny as hell? haha!

I agree with you in that, without a context, these things to do are all empty. I love ecotourism, because it allows me to approach nature, protect the environment, and get involved in conservation efforts, and that is why that ToDo made some sort of sense.
Being practical, though, it implies work and a lot of effort. Corny? Committed to a cause, rather.

The list is just that a list. I agree we should all be striving to help others and grow as a person but why not see or do some of the most exciting things in the world by following this list i have done 16, not bad for a 31 yr old!!! enjoy.

The BBC took down the list. There is a mirror at The Mirror.
