b4 i die

I never realized how insignificant so many things are. I always go about my day doing the same shit over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, day after fucking day, never stopping to think if I'm actually happy. I was watching this new show last night called The Buried Life and yeah, it was kind of commercialized and INSIGNIFICANT, but the underlying message made me think about so many things that I want to do before I die. If you don't know the concept of the show, it is about four boys who were unhappy with the way their lives were going and decided to make a list of 100 things they want to do before they die. They set out on a journey across the country in a sick purple bus to do these 100 things, and help out other people on the way who want to accomplish something worthwhile before they die. There are so many things that I hope to do before I die that I don't think I will ever get to do. I hate it. I want to be able to enjoy my life while I'm still alive instead of having to always achieve and conquer; advancing and improving until I have some high paying job that gets me a huge house and all that garbage. It's not what I want. Well, no, it is what I want but there are so many more important things that I should dream about accomplishing. But no. All anyone wants to do anymore is beat out the person next to them and get better grades, get into a better college, get a higher GPA, get a better internship, get a better job, make more money, buy a bigger house, have better children who just want to go out and do the EXACT SAME THING. That's the cyclical nature of our country, and what everyone is forced to deal with. I'm not saying that this is completely wrong and that everyone should drive their cars off bridges and throw their money into the ocean, but chill out. Seriously. Is this really necessary? This is all meaningless and insignificant. What do I want to do before I die?

Walk atop the Great Wall of China

Have my own star

Go to Greece

Teach my grandmother to speak more English
Give my father just as much as he gave me

Adopt an animal

Swim with sharks

Jump off a cliff

Go to an insane asylum

Write a book about witchcraft

Go to the White House

Go to the moon

If only it were all possible.
