My Wish List

I think its great to write down our dreams and gain inspiration from them. Meghna tagged me this time. I’ve done it in a different way though. 

Things I want to do before I die -

  • Own an apartment on the 126th floor of a building and design it myself. View of the city, terrace garden ‘n a huge aquarium !
  •  Swim with the dolphins !
  • Find him.
  • Write the novel I know that is inside me.
  • Make my parents feel proud.
  • Sneak out of the house at midnight.
  • Perform in front of a large audience.
  • Learn to cook. Something =|
  • Play Wish You Were Here *perfectly*.  
  • Experience zero gravity.
  • Get a flying bird tatooed on my arm~
  • Hug a Panda. Teddy bear. Whatever.
  • Paint my room. By myself.
  • Go up in a hot-air balloon.
  • Attend one really huge rock concert.
  • Go Skydiving =D
  • Shop in Paris.
  • Take a ride on a jet-plane along the coast during sunset ~
  • See all the wonders of the world.
  • Try out a few red streaks. 
  • Raise two labradors – one white and one black. Name ‘em Salt and Pepper  :D  Awwwww !!

    Readng the post and all the comments, I can only quote,
    “Reality is wrong. Dreams are for real.”
    ( I don’t know who said that)

  13. 15

    which team do you support?

  14. 16
    Sharath Says:

    :) Atleast you know a list of things that u want to do. There is this song “Sunscreen” by Baz Luhrmann that I like, which has a line that goes like this – Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your life…the most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don’t.
    NY beka…while u r at it, u can choose 100+ floors rather than just the 26th floor. At the 26th u will just see the windows and walls of other apts.
    And names of your dogs are just fine – Salt and Peppa or Bevu and Bella. It sounded familiar aste. Search on google you will see what i meant

  15. 17
    Sam Says:

    The best one is the Salt n Pepper gal!!!! My neighbour has a lab, Russell…. Cutest thing i’d ever seen! that was abt 4 years back. now that guy is the size of a donkey!!! sounds like a fib, u gotta see him to believe it. so damn playful that i feel he’ll start playing with robbers who come to rob my neighbour!!!!

  16. 18
    Vivek Says:

    wow…another universe geek…

    Priya Says:

    @ Abhishek : I Wish…………………

    @ Vishesh : Man-U !!! Arsenal lost recently…you saw ?? :P

    @ Sharath : Sunscrene song !!! Yeah Yeah, I’ve heard of it !!
    Hahahahahahaaa………FINE ! I’ll go for 126th floor of the apartment !! ;)
    Bevu Bella ?? Thu !! Who names the dogs like that !! Enough of eating them once a year making the most wiredest face of all ( when your eating Bevu that is …ahem )

  18. 20
    Priya Says:

    @ Sam : Thanks !! Yeah, I like that one too !! Come on !! Labs are cute even when they’re old !! Playful…yeaah !! LOL !! Be carefull !! :P

    @ Vivek : Yeah, I just like Sky Watching during the night. I feel soo Tiny then…hmmmmmmm………All the best for your Dream my friend !!

    arvind Says:

    most of them are cool …
    sky diving?? :O
    are u sure …girls usually are repulsive to adventure sports :P

  21. 23
    Priya Says:

    @ Raghav : Coooool !! :) Wot you think it cannot happen aah ?? You Never Know !! You Never Know !!

    @ Arvind : What Do you mean by “girls usually are repulsive to adventure sports ” ??
    How many girls do you possibly know anyway /?? Even if you do, may be you’d know only thosee pinky aunties !! Don’t make me start an arguement !!

    Is it so hard to belive that there are some girls out there who like metal, thrash, black, sports, wrestling and even SKY DIVING !! “bumhph”

    HYPOCRITES !!

    ish Says:

    Nice post! I can associate with quite a few things on your list. I would wanna show my parents and the whole world in general that I’m not a mind-fuck either. And tell them that they seriously need to rethink the way they judge a person.

    Music wise, I’d wanna own a guitar like the one the Green Day people have. I’ve heard they’ve got the best guitars in the world. Best as in best in quality, not in cost. But from my heart I really wanna buy a piano. And then I’d put two florescent strips on it and make it look like Chris Martin’s piano. That guy is God really.

    And performing in a concert too. If I buy a piano someday, and end up making a band or something, you’re gonna be my guitarist. What say? :D

    Amit Says:

    Cool post. Will do a copy someday. :)
    Well, my list is too long. But a few of them are – Skydiving, learning the guitar and piano, give my parents Euro tour package tickets and telling them – Jao, jee lo apni zindagi, Visit as many places as possible and live happily ever after like all the disney cartoons. :)

    Raghav Says:

    “Is it so hard to belive that there are some girls out there who like metal, thrash, black, sports, wrestling and even SKY DIVING !! “bumhph” ”

    Hard to believe?
    Not at all, infact, most of the girls I know are of this kind – very few listen to metal though and wrestling is a no-no.

    But point is, the world is becoming extinct of those ‘Pinky Aunties’

    arvind Says:

    whoa !!! wait a minute. .i dint mean to start an arguement .. did i ???
    did u notice the smilies ??? that means not to be taken as offense…
    and yeah , never mind the numer of girls i know ..
    most of them are the other way around .,…so it is surprising..
    there was no need to get serious for this …
    anyways glad to know some ppl are not like those whome u call ” pinky auties ”
    bye

  30. 32
    Raghav Says:

    Um, well, yeah, it’s not to be made a big deal of.

    Yieeeeee…………. I’m already getting invites for bands ! This is nice !!

    @ Vishesh : Are we going to continue the comments according to which team wins on what day ?? :D I really don’t mind you know. :P

    @ Amit : ” give my parents Euro tour package tickets and telling them – Jao, jee lo apni zindagi ” …. Whoaa !! Thats something that even I want to do !! Sure, go ahead and make your list !! It’s fun !!

    visio159 Says:

    126th floor is plausible.

    mine would be
    to visit Germany and Korea
    to live in a place shrouded by lush green mountains and seashore
    to learn martial arts
    to survive Chernobyl
    to run with background music “in the house in a heartbeat” as in the starting scene of “28 weeks later”

  46. 48

    Hot air balloons are boring. Unless of course you get stuck in the tail of a Nuclear missile and land at a remote island only to be rescued weeks after you successfully complete the treasure hunt. Rare.

    Priya Says:

    @ Arvind : Hahahaha !! Sounds interesting.

    @ Visio : Hey !! Mine too !! Actually Full Europe. Martial arts sounds damn cool.
    ” lush green mountains and seashore”….wow.

    @ Sneezy Melon : Yaayyy…I can’t possibly pray for something like that to happen na.
    Actually I meant, seeing the city/green/whatever from top, i.e, hot air balloon.
    Treasure hunt….sounds amazing !

    @ Dinu : Hehe…I love Dolphins. Well, Zero Gravity thing is inspired by Stephen Hawking. ( coz of some strange reason ) .Thanks !!
