  I'd probably play the dying card and try to meet some famous people too.  :fuckyeahdance:

  Also, I think I'd go all out to have a reality show.  Why the hell not?  :roses:

  I might also become just a little bit of a dick, Walter White style. 
  Nothing terrible, just some little acts of revenge.  Just toward people who richly deserved it.  :trollface:

My answer is different now than it was in 2007.  I'd care about different things.  The hedonism wouldn't really be an issue.  It would depend what I was dying of, but if it didn't involve too much pain or disability, it would be something of a relief, though not being the one making the decision is an unsettling thought.  Not a lot of people to live for, right now; nobody I can think of who'd care for me at the end.  Kind of a lonely thought.  I suppose I'd try to spend more time with people- maybe cut back hours at work- but, really, there's nothing especially meaningful I'd probably do, or feel the need to do.
Me neither, except finish uni. Then I could say that I actually finished something.
Hey, I actually did it. I finished something! Now what?

Time to make a new plan, for the next year?

Yep. Going to Tafe, which is like college, to study IT. Unlike uni, I have to pay for the courses I study. So I am going to be broke for the next 8 fortnights.

I wonder if I could get my hands on my retirement? One of them, I can.

I would get a job teaching college. I would go back to Hawaii. (done these)
I would go to Japan.
I would write 365 stories for Py to read when I am gone.
I would write a bucket list and do one or two things on it.

That's a sweet list.
