19. Drink a cocktail from a coconut.

Well, I've been absent for a while, I can't deny that. As always, living life gets in the way of writing about it. Just a quick one though to say that I actually did one of the things on my bucket list whilst on holiday. Not exactly the most challenging thing, but I enjoyed it none the less! ;)

Do something amazing.

Hi all,

Just a quick post from me today, as the link I am about to send you has all the information you could possibly need. My friends and I are raising money for an amazing friend of ours to purchase a new, custom to her needs wheelchair. As one of the many things we will be doing, I am going to be bungee jumping on Sunday 09/02/14. As you all know, I am absolutely petrified of heights, and although bungee jumping for charity is on my 12-18 month bucket list, I have to say it was one of things I though least likely for my to achieve when writing it. Which is why it has come one of the first points I have targeted.

Please help us to reach our £1500 target and purchase the wheelchair of her dreams to give her back her independence. If you cannot afford to donate, or even if you can, don't fret! Just visit the link below to see how else you can help to spread awareness and otherwise get involved. Help us to change a life.

The link will be at the top of my blog until the campaign ends in January. Let's smash the target!

My Bucket List for the next 12-18 months.

So in my journey for control of my anxiety and making up all the time I've lost to it, I've started a sort of bucket list. There are many thing I've missed over the years, and many crazy little ideas that pop into my head only to be lost. This list is my way of ensuring I experience as much as possible in as little time as possible. It has a deadline yes, because I want to have a set point to look back and smile at how much I've done. And because I'm challenging myself. And also because yes, a lot of these experiences are best done when young and single with few commitments, so I am racing the clock a little here. Although there is a deadline, there is not an ending to this list. Anything I haven't achieve in the next 12-18 months will be going on to my next list, whether that be another short time list, or more of a 'things to do before I die' style list I don't yet know. I'm just kind of going with it right now.

I'll be amending and adding things to this as I go along, so as well as posting it as an actual post, I'll be adding it as a page on my blog so you guys can go back and check how it is going at any time. If you have any suggestions for this list, feel free to leave them in a comment for me, I'd love to see them! Anything in bold green has been accomplished, woo hoo!
