Score 150 or more in a game of bowling.
When I was young (8) I was amazing at bowling... I generally wound up with a score around 200. Somehow I lost all talent between 8 & 15. Now I'm lucky if I bowl a game above 75! Hahahaha! (It is rather impressive how many gutter balls I manage to get without trying to.
Why would I want to do this?
Because I like bowling and I like to be good and competitive at things that I do with others... Yes - I am a very competitive person. It's a downfall at times... Haha!

Hit a home run.
Haha! I've played quite a few games of ball in my time, heck - I was actually on a softball team when I was... 9 or something. In all my years though - I've never been able to hit a home run.
Why would I want to do this?
It's the exact same thing as playing soccer and never scoring a goal! (Thankfully I've done that) It's an accomplishment! :)

Be a florist.
Or at least arrange one bouquet that turns out amazing! To work with flowers... :)
Why would I want to do this?
To each person a florist is something different. To some they are the people you go to when you desperately need to make up to someone, but they're not taking your calls. Others view florists as those who are more sensitive than themselves and ask they put something together for a late loved one... However you view a florist - they're special. They help you out when you need something, but know that words alone won't do justice.

Pick up a hitch hiker.
Why would I want to do this?
To help a person get where they want/need to go.
(Think about it. There's a lot more to that sentence then appears.)

Have someone play a song just for me.
So last night right before going to bed "Inevitable" by Anberlin came on my iPod. Upon this happening I posted a tweet somewhere along the lines of saying that if a guy wants to woo me (yes, I use "woo" in that form) they should play "Inevitable" for me.
Why would I want to do this?
There's a love and passion inside of me for live music (the fact I'm not going to see Anberlin in 2 days when they come through town is still astounding to me *sigh*). Anyway. I've never once been played a song specifically for.. Me. It'd be amazing and incredible to have it happen, and I hope someday, someone will. :)

Learn a song on the harmonica.
The harmonica is one of those little-used instruments which I think should get more attention. So here I am saying that I want to learn how to play a song on the harmonica!
Why would I want to do this?
When I was a kid I used to think I could play the harmonica. I had one of those plastic toy ones that always sounded odd no matter what you did... Well, anyway. At one point in my life I had a true blue real harmonica which I put up to my lips and realized - it's difficult to play!

Catch a crawfish.
It dawned on me the other day I've never caught a crawfish!
Why would I want to do this?
........ Because both my brothers have?

Witness Clark's grebe's perform the "courtship dance"
I obviously watched the Discovery series "Life" while it was on TV the past month - incredibleness. I might buy it on DVD one of these days. Definitely worth it. (Remember those movies your parents would put in and have you watch when you were young? Exactly what I think these would be perfect for!)
Why would I want to do this?
They end their dance by running on water in perfect synchrony. That right there would be amazing to witness... :)

Own a legit pair of hiking boots... and use them for #22 or any other adventure that requires hiking.
LOL! So this is kinda out of no where. Extreme randomness.
Why would I want to do this?
Well - I realized that a person can't hike without hiking boots. I am not the type of girl to own let alone try on a pair of hiking boots. If I were to own a pair and use them - oh my... I think someone somewhere would witness a flying sheep. XD

Go to school and take a full day of classes.
Why would I want to do this?
As most know, I was home-schooled my entire life (which means I never ever spent any time in a classroom in a school). I realize some would look at this and think I'm extremely lucky and think I'm psycho for wanting this... But it's true. I always wanted to attend a school and live the student life for a day or two.

Have an I Love Lucy marathon.
Amazingly I've never watched a full episode of I Love Lucy... ever.
Why would I want to do this?
Well, from the parts of episodes that I've seen it's a pretty fantastic show! Plus, it was made back when shows were actually good and worth watching.

They're so darn cute when they hatch! All covered in stuff and stuff... Tehe!

Stomp grapes.
For wine, of course. Haha! Still not entirely sure where or why I thought of this one, but it's definitely fun!
Why would I want to do this?
Have you ever seen that episode of I Love Lucy where she stomps the grapes? Hahahaha oh my... Well, I do know it's quite a bit of work, but it'd be rather hilarious too!

Go to a public auction.
So this might seem a little strange to some, but going to a public auction is actually rather intriguing to me.
Why would I want to do this?
To see the things that people had in their lives and treasured would be one thing... But then to accept them into your life and continue theirs (the things) is amazing.

Walk the entire Great Wall.
Earlier today I was thinking through the places that I know people who have been to, but I haven't and the Great Wall is up there. I know multiple people who have visited it - it kinda makes me jealous!
Why would I want to do this?
In the midst of walking the entire wall I hope to learn about why and how it exists, because if you know me, you know I have hardly any knowledge of history. Haha! Reading about things that happened years ago doesn't interest me, going to places and learning about them while I'm there (on my own terms & pace, thank you past teachers) does interest me. So yes - this is a learning experience too. :)
