1, 2, 3...My Bucket-List Pop!

Bucket List Pheww! I never really thought of writing them down. Now after today, writing them here, I can finally achieve these few things to hold myself accountable to before I die.
 I read somewhere that the bucket list idea originated from the term "kick the bucket". 😀 Now the mention of death is one scary thing to say the least.


 But what best way to die knowing that you kicked ass on earth! Imagine being buried/cremated having led such an average or below average life you wish you could come back and do more? 😥

 I have always had weird things to accomplish, to say the least,  😊Some very silly ones, others well, reasonable ones and a bit worth it. These be the tasks I would like to achieve though:-

 
Here is my list:
  1. Re-climb Mt.Longonot. 
  2. Get a tattoo
  3. Tour the Pyramids of Egypt
  4. Go on a water-only diet for 3 days
  5. Learn to play a keyboard (quite well)

  12. Read two books each month for a whole year
  13. Attend a KPL  football match
  14. Go for camping  with my mum and sister
  15. Have a romantic dinner in a cottage
  16. Sit in a busy highway(2009)
  17. Make an educative(or not) documentary
  18. Visit a stranger in prison 
  19. Learn how to shoot(Incase the Zombies attack; prolly own a gun)😄
  20. Get a PhD
  21. A random road trip to any African country (preferably Zambia)
  22. Try to stop a wedding...just oppose for no reason 😋
  23. Meet my favorite Ugandan comedian, Omara Daniel 💓
  24. Camp in one of those Western Province caves

  28. Tour Jo'Burg in SA 
  29. Sing at a Karaoke
  30. Publish my poetry book
  31. Program in Python
  32. Visit Turkana.
  33. Swim in the Indian ocean (learn to swim first lol)
  34. Get a pic on the Eiffel Tower
  35. Read a whole chapter of the Bible and the Qu'ran
  36. Wear a Muslim hijab for a whole week!
  37. Have a friend from each race(Caucasian,Asian, Black, and Australoid)
  38. Shed off the baby fat 😁
  39. Make my writing-stuff website 
  40. Sell stuff on Ebay
  41. Finish my fashion website

Who made us judge(s)?

"You looked at her and yelled out, Instantly never thinking of how, That may have made her feel. Did you ever stop to think that she, Dressed like that because of how it Made her feel?...." The poem reads in part. When I first read this poem, I said to myself, "oh jeez number one culprit of judgement". You see, am always judging people. I will make a comment in mind of how a woman has dressed,make a face and go "whatever" when someone looks at my legs. I have never really taken time to ask myself why a person is how they are. Am sure the throne of judgement gets sat on by each one of us..on a daily basis. Do you cringe when you see people kiss or hold hands in public? Whisper words like, "braggers", "she will get dumped". Do you find yourself laughing at a fat person and quickly judge her? "consequences of french fries", "how does one get that fat? Wasn't she checking?". Or when you see a man in sweat s...

Through My Daughter's Eyes

I have a little angel in my house. A little pretty, flower girl that throws her hands up whenever I come home. A sign of appreciation and admiration I suppose. She's a bright little piece of art. Learning things very fast. Words, actions all in a manner that's a combination of pretty, witty, funny and cute. Yet she doesn't forget an action or word said. May it be an advert on tele, a weird random action I just did unknowingly. It sticks in her little mind.  Sticks and never goes away. So we mind our language whenever we are around her. We watch what we do, the programmes we subject her to, because whatever she sees, she copies and permanently pastes in her little head. Shes an awesome piece. She seems to appreciate life every time she wakes up. Giving off a soft mourn so that I can know she has just woken up. And when I do, she seems to tell me with her eyes. Well, mummy, am glad to be living. The brightness in her face and eyes are priceless. When in most cases I woul...

Of regrets and undone priorities

I once (as a little girl) read a sad piece from a book, "If I Had My Child to Raise Over Again" by Chief Dan George or by Diana Loomans. Am not exactly sure who wrote it. But the piece was special...gives a detailed account of a parent's regrets. It read in part.... "... If I had my child to raise over again, I'd finger paint more, and point the finger less. I'd do less correcting, and more connecting. I'd take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes. I would care to know less, and know to care more...." And it goes on and on.... Do you sometimes look back at years passed and regret things not done?...look back at lost years and be like, "God, where did my youth go to?" or "What the heck did I do with my life?" I think that statement hits many of us once in a while. Does it ever hit you how time flies when we totally do nothing? I thank whoever wrote that piece. For from it, I learnt to set small goals and achieve ...
