    Hehehe do I qualify?

  2. 135. Walked the Golden Gate Bridge

    I’m proud to say i live in the wonder city of San Francisco and i walk the Golden Gate Bridge every morning.
    Such a beautiful thing.

  3. I’m green with envy (nah, just teasing)… I wonder what’s like, I guess it’s superb!

    Thanks for comment!

  4. omg these are so cool, i read them all. but i dont know hat movie you were in. the reason i read it was because i am thinking of making a list of my own. so i wanted inspiration. so anyway… the thing you have done are pretty cool. but wait… how do you pet a coackroach?

  5. Giving it something to eat… and Voilá!

  6. Midnight skinny dipping is amazing and completely refreshing. Just make sure it isn’t in a month that the water is freezing. In the summer months the water is perfect.

  7. 196: Dyed your hair

    already dyed some of my hair blond

  8. Great list! I might have to steal a couple for mine!

  9. Good list but why would someone WANT to and PLAN to have an abortion?

  10. Cool list, but there are some things I probably wouldn’t want to try such as surviving an accident that I shouldn’t have and breaking a bone. Both of those sound like things to avoid for me. Other than that, it is a good all around list.

  11. Well if you complete No 150, it should help you to complete No 200 lol

  12. 82. Discovered that someone who’s not supposed to have known about your blog has discovered your blog

  19. Please tell me you really did not kill a human being??

  20. I haven’t! Where are you getting this idea?

  21. have an abortion? 180. kill someone?

  22. No, based on the last comments I received, I made an update to the list and at the comment on the beginning of the list.

    Killing another human being has never being in my mind and it will never be. OK?

    Thanks for passing by.
