What are five things you want to do within 5 years?

[I used to be a stranger 7,993]

I'm thinking about where I want to be in half a decade. I think it's enjoyable thinking about all the possibilities which could still come to be. Where do you think you'll end up? What would you aim for?

I'm thinkin',

1. Be married to a lovely woman
2. Own a house and a car
3. Visit South America and/or Pacific islands
4. Finish writing a book and/or start making a video game
5. Save a life

What would be on your list? What are your top five ambitions?

[Nerdy Luigi 2,065]

1. Find the right man for me, and hopefully get engaged, for real. (If this doesn't happen, It's okay...)

2. See my pet project to fruition, and get something out of it. (I'm being secretive about it for a reason, though.)

3. Know my true purpose in life (It's foggy for me at the moment.)

4. Get caught up with video games, cartoons, and anime (I'm already starting!)

5. Do something with my life! (Kind of need to do this before anything else!)

[Celtore 2,770]

Well, I'll have a career by then. Hell, I'll have a career in 2 months. Call this tentative because I honestly haven't planned this far ahead yet.

1. Work on an open source project in my spare time or continue developing my final project as a serious endeavour.
2. Lose a few pounds, there's finally time to allocate for exercising.
3. Finish programming my programming blog and use it to write about how interesting C# and Python features.
4. Get involved with a few local communities involved with my hobbies.
5. Form a few long term friendships rather than many acquaintances through educational circumstance.

 

4 month update:

2 and 3 are going well! I'm slowly on my way back to my old pant size and all it took was about an hour of daily exercise. My blog is kind of going well, I'm updating it here and there.

1, 4 and 5... yeah... I'm not exactly the most social person you're going to run into. I like using my spare time to relax. Maybe I will in the future, but for now, I'm enjoying the peace.

Well, hopefully i'll manage these:

2: Find a GF, should be a first time for that atleast.

3: Move to a place outside this town (not getting a house, kinda have one already, inheritance stuff).

4: Quit my current job and do what i really want, biology/nature photography.

5: Grow my own vegetables, especially chilies, extremely hot chilies.

I do have more things i want to do, but atleast those are the things that should be easy to do in the next 5 years.

[KatonRyu 1,033]

There isn't really much I can say here since I already have most of what I want. I have my own house, a steady job, a car, a great girlfriend. The only things that remain are getting a single point on the world fencing ranking list and writing and publishing a book, and hopefully making a living out of that for the rest of my working years.
