Wishlist - Bucket

Tagged by Starry ...

Lets start with the ones I wanted to do and actually was able to achieve it.

* I always wanted to study on scholarship and I actually passed a National level exam and managed to fund my education for most part.
* I wanted to be on the front page of newspaper for my achievements ... and it happened. Alas ... it was long long time ago ... but nonetheless it happened and I was interviewed too :D
* Driving in the US ... yep ... have been driving for 8 years now.
* Sponsor for my parents' US visit.... I did everything from researching, paperwork to financing their trip
* Have 2 kids of the same sex. (this one was something I wished and wasn't in my control ... but I am glad it worked out. Though I had no preference to boys or girls ... I just wanted 2 kids of same sex)

My wishlist:

* To see both my daughters well settled and happy
* To release my very own music album.
* To be event Manager. (I have hosted / organised several parties and most of them have had wonderful feedback)
* To crack the code in the world of stocks and share ....
* Travel the world with my family ... may I also add with no financial constraints (BP. kids and parents)
* Own a house by the beach

Ah ... I need to come back to reality from my dreams and start working towards achieving those. Wish me luck people !

@Aj: Whats your best guess?

@Lakshmi: Celebrity ?? Now I think I should downplay this ....

@Asaaan: I love composing music and remixing used to be a hobby too. My sister and I had remixed few songs and had burnt a CD and wanted to play it in one of the community events ... but it didn't happen ... internal politics ... I listen to Kannada and Hindi music ... so mostly it will be in those languages :)

SSLC rank? :) I'm saying SSLC because in those days that did put you in the newspaper but high marks in ICSC etc usually didn't.

Cantaloupes.Amma (CA) said...

And AJ you get a special prize for getting your guess right !!!
Indeed SSLC it was :)

Now everyone will realise I ain't any celebrity :(

Sands said...

lovely list :) Can we please see the newspaper article here?

AverageJane said...

Yay! Yay! I guessed it, I guessed it! SSLC rankers are celebrities in their own right. :)

Nino's Mum said...

Ah! a house by the beach. Why, I might just try this wishlist too!

Poppins said...

LOL Ms. celebrity
Didn't know you were planning this music album! Wow - with your voice - pls to send me a copy!

Nice list. I didn't know about the NTSE thing either - what else have you been hiding from me?

Cantaloupes.Amma (CA) said...

@poppy: The music album so far is strictly instrumental :)
The NTSE thing happened same year as SSLC ... it was a very satisfying year academically :)

K3 said...

I hope you have the copy of the newspaper to show off to the girls! That's really awesome!

Aww, a beach house .... would love that myself too. :)

Choxbox said...
