My life list

[pride_of_erin]

So in the course of my wanderings on LJ, I happened upon thelifelist - essentially, a comm where you post a list of all the things you want to do before you die. I like the idea, but couldn't be bothered joining another comm, so I'll post my list here in my journal. Maybe I could make it a meme for my f-list - it's actually quite fun! :o)

My Life List (in no particular order)

*Marry, or at least spend my life with a man who loves, appreciates and respects me.
*Lavish all my love, affection, time and energy on that same man.

You know what's been on *my* life list since I was a kid?

To go to Australia.

Seriously. =o)

Duuude! Come on down! *g*. It is a beautiful country - which is exactly why I wanna see more of it. I've only seen 3 states.

=o) I've always wanted to go because it seemed SO far away, so remote, although it's not really that remote...it just looks like that on our maps! lol It's like uncharted territory...heehee ...boldy go where no man has gone before. At least that's what I thought as a kid! haha Now I dig Australia because y'all are decendants of convicts! woot woot!! j/k ;o)

LOL, we're not that isolated! :o)

y'all are decendants of convicts!

Actually, it's surprising how few of us are - most people are descendents of more recent immigrants. So, anybody who actually has convict heritage is incredibly proud of it, like people in the US whose ancestors came over on the Mayflower. I'm descended from a couple of people on the Second Fleet who got busted stealing silver spoons, so I'm practically Aussie royalty! LMAO.

LOL Yeah, but as a kid, I would look at the map of the world and waaaaaaaaaaaaaay down at the bottom was Australia. And I knew it took likee 20 hours on a PLANE to get there...I was like, "WOAH, I *have* to go there!" ;o)

Ooooooooooh, I'm gonna watch my silver when you're around! lol Yeah, I was thinking about that...about the descendants from convicts, and how it's pretty much diluted by now, like how you mentioned with the Mayflower. Actual decendants of "orginal" immigrants are hard to find even here.

*Get closer to God.
does meeting Lee counts for that one?

LOL! And here I was trying to come up with a few things that weren't completely shallow - it just always comes back to beautiful men in the end, doesn't it?
