103 Adventures to Live


A month or so ago, I was sitting at work, with my mind going at one-hundred miles an hour. What was I thinking about? Life. Everything. That is when I decided I was not very happy with the way I had been living. Yes, there have undoubtedly been beyond incredible experiences. However, when reflecting back on the whole picture my life had painted so far, it was nothing but a blur of dull colors, with highlighted spots here and there. I want my life picture to be elaborate and full of creativity, adventure, and euphoria. This is where the 103 Adventures to Live comes into play. I decided to make a list of 103 things I absolutely have to do before I die, preferably sooner than later. Over the past month I finalized my list, and now I can start living it. I will not be planning these events out, except for the ones that require it such as traveling over seas. Hopefully I will be able to record pictures or video from each, to make it even more real for those who may read this and think it is impossible. Life is short, go live it. Keep in mind, these are in no order or importance, just what came to my mind.
