Birthday Wishlist

It's one of the happiest days of the year. It's not yet Christmas, silly. But it could be Christmas in April. For me though, because it's my birthday! It's the day that started all THIS, whatever THIS could/might be. So bring out the booze, banners and the pinata! Wait, am I too old for pinatas? I don't think so. No one who eats coco pops for breakfast, lunch and dinner is ever too old for pinatas.

Anyway, since it's my birthday I think I'm entitled to make my own wishlist. No, it doesn't necessarily mean that you have to give me presents based on my wishlist, if that were the case I would have registered, it would be way easier for me and you. But if you insist in giving me something off my list, then who am I to complain? But I warn you this list is not also limited to only realistic wishes, this list could range from shallow, bizarre, outrageous to over-the-top impossible. But who knows, I might be able to tick each wish off the list, someday. Maybe eons from now, when I've perfected the art of time and space traveling.



So here goes my wishlist:
  • Travel to India, specifically Shimla before my next birthday. (This maybe the most realistic wish so far, and it's perfectly under way)
  • Visit at least 5 places this year that I've never been to.
  • Learn how to swim. Titanic's been re-released in effing 3D after 15 years and I still don't know how to swim!
  • Learn to speak Hindi, (sorry Lexi I prefer Hindi over Italian) so that I will be able to watch Bollywood movies without subtitles. Ha! Who's the boss now?
  • Invent or have someone invent the mobile phone with washing machine. I'll never loathe doing the laundry ever again!
  • Close Saks Fifth Ave from the public for a day so I can do my private shopping. It's better and more realistic than cordoning Rodeo Drive, isn't it?
  • Be a rock star for a month. Let's not be hypocrite here, who wants to be a rock star for only a day? If I could have it my way, I want to be one for at least 6 months so I can have a world tour. But for now, a month is enough.
  • Date Cary Grant, I know what you think... He's dead. But hey, I am learning to time travel. Give me time. Give me a lot of time. If not, then there's always Ryan Gosling who's very much alive.

I think that's all, for now. My brain's really not working, I'm sleep deprived and I had tons to do at work. But if you ever get to have any lead on any of the wishes off my list, let me know ASAP. ☺☺☺
