Bucket List

Now, I am not dying as far as I know. But recently I have felt a bit downtrodden about the fact that I feel very little passion about anything. I have plenty of interests: art, animals and their rights, spirituality, fantasy and many other things. But I don't feel that spark, that utter fulfilment from carrying out a certain activity. I don't have that feeling that I must do something and often my laziness, short attention span and lack of motivation take over. But I promised myself 2013 would be a good year so I decided that rather than looking for that one passion that is supposed to fulfil me until my dying day, I'd make a list of things I would - at some point in time - like to achieve. It is a focal point for my life and I hope adding to it will keep me enthusiastic, motivated and hopefully passionate about my life itself. I will be 27 in June and I may make highlight certain things on the list that I'd like to achieve before I reach 30. So here it is so far:


  • Have an exhibition of my artwork
  • Have art published in an annual
  • Have a year where I have grown all my own vegetables
  • Rear my own meat
  • Go trekking around new Zealand
  • Win a competition
  • Go on an overnight horse trek/ donkey or pony hike
  • Read a book in one sitting
  • Live outside of a city
  • Have a job in a creative field
  • Have a successful blog
  • Keep a journal for a whole year
  • Design and make a perfect item of clothing
  • Find my true style
  • Have a job working with animals
  • Give an Ignite Talk
  •  Play at least 5 whole songs/tracks on the guitar reasonably well.
  • Riding a dog sled

  • I will be updating and adding to this as I go along. I feel good about it!
