7. Become fluent in five languages

I'm on my third right now (Russian). Next is Arabic and then Mandarin Chinese.

Write a historical novel about the life of Hernan Cortes (on hiatus).

Get a PhD in Computer Science (in progress).

Trace my ancestors all the way back to Spain (got as far as 1720).

The plan is to run out of life, before I run out of things to do.

If I die before I accomplish my goals, I'll be happy knowing I did not peak early.

23. Since I didn't even read a review of the movie, I'll assume

that "bucket list" means things you want to do before you "kick the bucket."

My goals are somewhat modest.

Live long enough to see my almost five year old daughter grow up to be happy and healthy and a good person, in spite of me.

See my wife find a job that she enjoys and is mentally/spiritually rewarding for her.

Save enough money the next few years that my family is okay without me.

Travel to China at least one more time, when the weather is less brutally hot & humid.

Travel to Europe at least once.
