We'd better get doing things that are memorable in the summer. Summertime is a time for fun.
So what are some funny things that would be in a person's "bucket list". Summer has us reconsider all those "serious" and "self-important" bucket list ideas - you know banzai skydiving, bungee jumping, walk the entire wall of China - well maybe not that one as it would actually take some time to complete and we'd be well past summer..
But what about these? Call someone to tell them you can't talk right now Have an argument with a mannequin at a store Hire two private investigators to investigate each other Only speak in song lyrics for a day
Most of theorems on the list are unpleasant - it is HERE. That's because it is composed of pranks. Questionable ones would get a person into various kinds of trouble. But then summertime is a better time for pranks than winter.
We can cherry pick through the dozens of offerings and make up a summertime list:
50 Easy Things You Can Check Off Your Bucket List Today Birthday Bucket List: 60 Fun Things to Do on Your Birthday! Best Friend Bucket List: 50 Fun Things to Do With Your BFF Fashion Bucket List: 36 Must-Do Goals for Every Lover of Style Weird Food Bucket List: 60 Strange Foods From Around the World At Home Bucket List: 50 Fun Things to Do Without Leaving the House
On the other hand, bucket lists have a purpose - they are a code phrase for a plan, a schedule and a set of activities.
"They teach us about ourselves and what is important to us, not what society says should be important to us. The act of creating a bucket list takes us out of our comfort zones and throws us into a realm of possibilities and questions."
"A bucket list is an attempt to make life memorable and is consistent with Daniel Kahneman's peak-end theory, which holds that what people remember from hedonic events are their peaks. No peaks - no memories, or at least not very crisp ones."
There are reverse bucket lists (looking at what you've already done", the bucket list effect (delaying things till retirement), annual lists vs D lists (before you die). You can get a bucket list template to get is all done faster. And then you won't miss out on the key memorable moments of summer.
Here's a hazy summer morning picture - James Park gardens in Toronto from a few years ago. This would be the kind of day where the bucket list wouldn't be considered.
