My To Do List

There are a number of things I want to do in my life, either because they sound fun, or just because I haven't done them (which usually equates to the same thing, for me). This is a list of some of them.

There are two real reasons for doing this. The first is that I sometimes have ideas about things to do, but my memory is dreadful, and I never remember it again. The other is that I am often in a position where I want to do something, but can't think of anything fun. Thus, a list that gets added to when I think of stuff, and gets read when I want to do stuff, is potentially the best thing ever.

One day, when Moksa is done, I'll make a program that randomly selects things to do from this list. In the meantime, I'll just use my eyes and my brain.

Some Really Fun Things To Do

Events

• Go and see a musical in Toronto - I've done this before, but it was glorious fun: do it again!
• Go to see a live play in Waterloo - There's a couple places this is possible: seek out, attend!
• Go horseback riding - lots of places around to do it, sounds fun!
• Go to a shooting range - never been -- have to find where one is.
• Archery - I did a bit of this in high school, and quite liked it.
• Hot air balloon ride - Fun for the whole family!
• Go on an elephant ride - at the Zoo, probably
• Minimalist camping trip - Many variations on this, lots of fun possibilities.

Places to Go

• Active Surplus - in Toronto
• Science Store on Dufferin - in Toronto
• Theatric Supply Store - there must be one in Toronto
• Go to African Lion Safari - despite having lived in Ontario for years, I've never been.
• Get a Tour of Castle Kilbride (after April 4th) -
• Get a Tour of the Toronto mint - see where they make the bills
• Canadian East Coast - Apparently quite fun.
• England - always the dream, eh?
• -

Computers

• Install Linux on my main machine - This is a relatively short-term goal
• Contribute to Mozilla - So I can feel good about myself. Write something really substantial.
• Finish Moksa - Right now, that involves finishing the Mercury Java back-end.

Hobbies

• Learn to chip carve - Sounds easy and fun!
• Learn to play the keyboard - I have a keyboard: I should learn how to play it.
