bucket list update

whoa, i found my old bucket lists! my life one from 2012 (which was updated from 2010), and a 2013 year one. i'm happy to say that even without trying, i've managed to cross a bunch of things off my list!

- go to spain to eat tapas and see gaudi, go to petra,
- get a pixi cut (2017) or shave head entirely
- go skydiving, cliff diving, scuba diving, snorkeling (twice!), swim with sharks, and paddle in a glass bottom kayak
- go on a windmill tour (like this one), ride in a hot air balloon (sorta in 2103?), more spelunking! ...well, more walking through caves anyway
- go on a cross country road trip
- learn to drive a motorcycle, go luge!!! (tho i may have to settle for skeleton)
- learn archery, rock climbing, knife-throwing, or how to throw a javelin
- at least once, watch all the current best picture nominations for an oscar
- see aurora borealis, watch a meteor shower (well, technically i did last summer but i want to see a GOOD one)
- make my own jam (it didn't turn out as jam, but i did make it!), make peppermint bark 
- learn how to knit / crochet, use a potter's wheel, solder correctly, or weld
- make my own terrarium, make a quilt (well, i had three made for "me," hahah)
- go to rose bowl flea market 
- go to the getty villa  (2017)
- go to la city central library and the last bookstore (both done multiple times now!)
- drive-in movie (2016)
- make a xmas wreath
- when in china this summer, visit bookworm in beijing.
- go to the underground gardens in fresno (i'm almost positive it won't be as good as i'm expecting it to be.) (2016 it def wasn't as cool as i was hoping, but still cool!)
- go to palm springs to kayak the salton sea and go do a windmill tour (like this one or this one)
- if i'm ever near ojai, visit bart's books, the largest independently owned and operated outdoor bookstore in the u.s.

well, well!! i'm glad i found this tho i have a LOT more things to add now, haha. they're mostly travel things: go to turkey, go to iceland, go to chicago (and to that ax throwing place), see bioluminescent plankton at an actual beach, go "sledding" in beijing, go to the other side of the bund in shanghai, go to toronto, go see so many places i've added to my email list, and omg way too much to list. hopefully i'll find this again in a few years and be able to cross off even more. :)
