Just like the title says:
What is on your bucket list!
Almost everybody has one and I'm sure we're all curious of hearing what other people have on theirs, so I'm starting a thread about that for people to talk about their lists. :3
If you have any personal ones you don't want to share, you don't have to say them. It's all good. :3
So to start off the thread I'll begin by saying a few things on my list:
Open up my own Bistro Café with a bakery ^0^
Get better at my art.. >~<
Get famous on Youtube (Yep. I went there. x3)
Find myself an acting agent (still looking >.<)
Meet (and marry) Toby Turner >.>
Travel and live in a few different countries
Get diplomas for Veterinary Technician and Culinary Arts
Okay! So, what do you have on your list?? :3
[NOTE: Please keep this to a DRAMA-FREE thread. I'm starting this for people to make discussion, not argue about what other people want to do in life. If you don't agree with something then please keep it to yourself or discuss it over PMs, but keep it OFF this thread. I don't want this thread to get locked. >.<]

I usually break this down into two categories; what I want my life to look like in ten years, and then just other stuff I want to get to do. So here's the double lists:
In ten years, I want to have a home in the country (outside of town will do), with a crappy old station wagon or Range Rover, with an office full of books and a place where I can write. I want to be working as a writer by this time. I'd also like to keep my fantastic wife.
Among the other things I'd like to do?
- Travel to Japan, Italy, England, France, and drive across *groan* America.
- Make a viral video
- Win a drinking contest
- Play a part in a Shakespearian play on stage. Any stage. Doesn't have to be a professional production.
- Restore an old car from the frame up in my own garage with mostly my own handiwork.
- Be recognized nationally (internationally would be cool too) as an author.
I'm sure there's more.

No worries. I've watched it once from Cypress mountain and I must say it's one of the most amazing things that I ever saw.
And as for a shooting range, you should try this place:
