What is it with visiting hospitals? I find that very um... how should I put this? strange. But, to each his own I guess.
Mine's a slightly different style. Not that I'm against helping people or anything, but I guess I just see that as more of a day to day kind of thing. My bucket list is more about experiencing um... super duper fun stuff.
Completed
play raquetball
Not Completed
go skydiving
go zorbing
play a bugle
climb on a train by the time I'm 30 (there's a goofy story as to how that one got on the list)
visit every state (this one's partially completed, I've been to 32)
attend an olympics (summer or winter)
go to cedar point
Now I kind of feel like a bad person. I don't have any cancer walks on mine.![Anxious :anxious:](./images/smilies/eusa_shifty.gif)

I forgot to put "Speak Spanish and French fluently."
I like hospitals. They feel like home. I feel safe there.King Butter Turtle wrote:What is it with visiting hospitals? I find that very um... how should I put this? strange. But, to each his own I guess.
My mother died from bladder cancer complications in August (hence my signature), so the walks are important to me.King Butter Turtle wrote:Now I kind of feel like a bad person. I don't have any cancer walks on mine.

I'm highly interested in a few. I have tis tendency to... well, be preoccupied with one thing at a time. That doesn't make sense, so.... Big hospitals intrigue me. The vastness of such a place... Myabe visit a few people, meet new people... I want to make a change in the world. It starts with hospitals... to me, at least.King Butter Turtle wrote:What is it with visiting hospitals?

PJ had a reason, and so do I. I know about... three people who have been lost to the disease, and three who are fighting right now to live. And there are so many more. It's my absolute passion to fight cancer. If I don't, what is my life's work? God is calling me to fight something that affects everyone (1 out of every 3 people in the world will get cancer in their lifetime.) I want to beat it. It's the only thing I can do it but to help.... (and then again, that's my reason to become a radiation oncologist person... I can't remember the name, but something around that.)Now I kind of feel like a bad person. I don't have any cancer walks on mine.
That's my story.
Oh, I might add "Speak Spanish well" to my list... I'm learning, but it's slow going, honestly....

I recently had the opportunity to play the actual arcade unit of Super Mario Bros. one last time... it had been easily 15 years since I'd had the chance to play it, probably closer to 20.
So upon doing so I think I've crossed about everything off my (reasonable) list!![Dancing \:D/](./images/smilies/eusa_dance.gif)
