Have a secret/unique language which only my significant other knows.
For some odd reason I really think it'd be awesome to be able to communicate with someone in the midst of a crowd without anyone knowing what you're saying aside from the one who's meant to hear.
Hehe - yes, I may have just jumped back to being 7 years old, I don't care ^.^

Every once in awhile I add something after it has happened... Here's another!
Have a drink created and named after me.
Oh - YES! Recently one of my dear friends and I have been frequenting a local bar, and the bartender knows us by name and her normal drink. I jump from drink to drink always up for something new. Well, last night I was up for another one and couldn't come up with what I wanted, so the lady next to us with whom we had begun a bit of a conversation with, agreed that the bartender should come up with a concoction for "Cooper" (one of my nicknames). So began the process of finding the things I like and putting them together in a delectable manner. About 15 minutes later the "Cooper" was perfected.
It's a mix of chocolate, mint and (in place of what will be strawberry) grenadine.
They ran out of strawberry liquor, so I have yet to try it the way I really want it - but the grenadine definitely did the trick of taking it from a too-heavy drink to a luscious combination of delicious amazing flavors.
With this drink now created, I believe I may finally have found my normal - which just so happens to be named after me ^.^

Earn a degree.
About 3 months ago now I got really serious about going to school and earning a degree in one of two things - it's something I want to do, and eventually - someday - I would love to complete. The two things I had were ultrasound technician and early childhood education.
The ECE can be completed in a shorter amount of time, so my plan was to start with that degree (which would then quite seriously over-qualify me for babysitting, but yes, I would definitely continue! I love kids!!). Spend a few years in the field and then go back to school for the ultrasound degree.
Oh the things which I had thought were to be in my immediate future... How different it is now.

Plan a trip - music and stops all coordinated. Just like Claire did for Drew in Elizabethtown.
I think it'd be so overwhelming to receive something like that, because of the amount of time, thought and effort the giver has to put in. Those are always the best gifts - those which are full of the person who's giving them. Flowing out with love, thought and care. So to do something like this for someone would be quite a challenge, yes - but completely worth it, especially if that person you create it for is someone who is close to your heart.

Collect something unique from all 50 states upon visiting them.
Most people do keychains, magnets, spoons, what have you. I started collecting shot glasses, but that's not unique enough for me. I want to have a super unique collection, which of course will take lots of time and traveling to create, but I'm okay with that.
