Dasvidaniya

Today I watched this great movie called Dasvidaniya, in which this guy whose name is Amar Kaul (Vinay Pathak) lives a nondescript life but one day his doctor tells him that he has stomach cancer. Knowing that he will die in 3 months, Amar makes a to-do list of things he wants to do during his life and sets out to do them.

After watching this movie I thought there are millions of people out there who want to do so much in life but have never been able to do it. And something like cancer shouldn’t be your reason to start doing something that you have always wanted to do for years.

So I think I’ll make a to-do list of things that I want to do before I die and see how much of it I accomplish.

* Travel the world

* Meet Riddhi

* Buy a house

* Become a photographer

* Become a philanthropist

* …

Its quite hard to think of all the things I want to do in one go, so I will keep the rest blank. Once I think of other things I would like to do, I will keep updating this post.

But what about you guys? What things would you guys want to do before you die and when will you set out to do them?

My dream list

This is just going to be a fun post on what I want my 50 things I own to be.

Right now I have hundreds of things I own in my room which I am trying to sell or donate but this won’t stop anytime soon as I still have heaps of junk in Sydney, at my family’s house as well which I will start getting rid of once I am there…

So once I get rid of most of the things I do not need, I would only like to own 50 things or less.

The below list is just an imagination of what I would like those 50 things to be… (the list does not include furniture or shared items, only items that I would use myself).

1. Macbook Air 11″
2. laptop case
3. Small external hard drive (1TB at least)
4. Pentax K-30

6. 18-135mm lens
7. 150-450mm lens
8. water bottle
9. A small dumb phone or iPhone
