To jazzellis: I’m currently growing a garden full of things I can eat. It pretty much rocks the house. I highly recommend.

After 6 1/2 years, I shut down my old blog, and just launched a new blog- http://shiftinglife.com My first post included a link to my Life List, inspired by you. 😉

So inspiring, makes the whole world open anew :). (Just a little side-whisper: it’s Uluru, not Ayer’s Rock anymore. The Aboriginal name has been restored which is of huge cultural significance :)).

i have been to the top of a lighthouse (pt. arena in mendocino 115 narrow winding stairs – legs were rubbery but the view was awe inspiring), taken a road trip with no destination and stood in the middle of the market in marrakesh and they are all totally worthy endeavors. go for it!

have also galloped and jumped a horse – one of the most joyful experiences ever, been to paris and have learned to be adventurous with food. maybe i should create a reverse life list and give myself credit for the things i have already done.

To Nichole, spending a night on a train is one of the best things ever. You wake up and you’re in a different city (or country).

I love this post and I am inspired by everyone to come up with my own life list that involves just me and fulfilling some of my dreams.

The Mighty for this week? Tap Club! Four friends, six weeks, one community center teacher, a delicious pair of Mary Janes. I can’t wait to sport leg warmers and windmill those winter blues away… 🙂

I’m working on 43 things to do before I die, but here’s what I’ve got so far! I just turned twenty, so hopefully I’ve got a lot of life in me 🙂
I want to:
– Be able to do one card trick, tell two jokes and recite three poems in case I’m ever stuck in an elevator.
– Learn how to drink espresso like the Italians.
– Learn how to play the ukulele and banjo
– Attend SXSW
– Create an old fashioned slideshow of my life
Granted, these are all apart from graduating UCLA and paying off my student loans…yikes!

Forgot to say, too, that Widdershins will only have another 5 (or is it 3?) years to climb Uluru: the Aboriginal people have won a decree to have it closed as a tourist spot & respected as a sacred site.

I’ve been following the Mighty List project since it started and I hadn’t gotten around to writing out the list. It was a blast making it up. I’ll probably add more to it later after I read even more lists. Anyway, here it is:
