I want to go deer hunting (there that's specific enough)

I can take you

[Immanuel]

This is a fun thread that had me thinking...
First I'd cruise across the Atlantic on the QUeen Mary.
Then I'd go on a pilgrimage to Rome like St. Therese.
Afterwards perhaps a cycle-tour thru Ireland going from
one monastery to another.

Okay... I'd do everything that is clean fun that a nun can't do!
Go to France.
Star as Clara in the Nutcracker (probably not... it's not too difficult of a part but there is so much competition)
Go to a Yankees game and get my ball signed.

Me too. Though my gun is in Sweden

How about fox hunting

[HopefulBride]

honestly if I can get someone to take me hunting before I get to put on the habit I would be waaaay too ecstatic.

I don't think I'd be able to hunt... I'd feel so badly shooting a little bunny or deer... not a bear though... lilmon, could you take me bear hunting?

Last post here was ages ago but I just remembered one: I want to dye my hair blue. I've wanted to do it for ages now.

Hee hee I had blue hair when I was about 15. I dyed it right before the summer, not thinking about the effects of chlorinated pool water... it wasn't pretty

Yes. Your hair shall stay blue as the ocean and not green as the Thames.

[/quote]I dyed my hair purple on my 33.3 birthday. Had to assure my boss that it would easily wash out in the shower

Bumping this for Petitpelerin.

I'm not sure I have a bucket list any more. There are dozens of things I want to do, but nothing I feel I absolutely have to do before (God willing) becoming a nun.

[EmilyAnn]

Now this thread makes me nostalgic....I never did get around to dyeing my hair. :hehe:

Thanks Marigold! I hereby record that the number one item on my bucket list for years and years has been to surf, and since it was now or never, I finally took a real vacation and went down to North Carolina and did it! It was awesome! I caught the second wave I ever attempted (with the help of an instructor) and rode it all the way into shore! (My snowboarding background definitely helped with the balancing-on-a-board part.) Then, later in the week, I also caught and rode the second wave I ever attempted on my own! Then I wondered if it was some kind of sign, because I'm entering a community for the second time . . . :bounce:

 

I am so tempted to move to the beach and surf. (It's not a wild idea in my world, I lived for years and years in the mountains and made a lifestyle of snowboarding, worked for a resort, etc.) But I'm going to enter religious life, and hopefully ride the waves of the ocean of God's love. :joecool:

I want to visit Medjugorje and Australia, probably won't manage the last one if I manage to enter next year.

My bucket list wasn't too difficult and I finished most of it a long time ago...I wanted an old pickup truck, a plaid shirt, a forest, a library, a thermos of coffee, and maybe an old trailer camper, things that reminded me of my grandfather. I wanted to write books (and I did - never published, but fun to create). I wanted a horse (THAT didn't last long - I stopped wanting it by the time it was offered, but I'd begged my parents for so long that I didn't dare refuse). I wanted to be employed outside and I ended up with both a ranch job and a landscape business. When I got all of those things I realized I wanted the Eucharist too and I got (get) Him. And bacon!!! I ate bacon. There's nothing left.

I had blue hair earlier this year! It's fun! :)

Bump

 

I found this in my searching.

I just have a couple things I want to do.

1. Get my degree

2. Get a nice massage

3. Go to Disney World one more time. I worked in Disney last year. That was a big thing on my bucket list. I'd like to take a special trip there before I enter as a graduation/birthday/Pre-Entrance celebration.

4. Have a Bride of Christ shower with my closest friends and family.

 

Pretty short and simple.
