The world just shook I swear!

I think I had an epiphany today. I realized that i wanted a little more out of life to not only be happy, but also proud and satisfied with the life I live. So I made a list of things I think will help me achieve that (my own sense of nirvana.

A to do list ( not in any particular order):

1. Go on more visits to the park
2. Go to Penns landing more often
3. Explore Old City( bars/clubs/art scene)
4. Go to a really good/special/ethnic food establishments once a month
5. Go out to more shows (music/theater/art/poetry readings)
6. Attend the Art Museum/gallery on Sundays
7. Attend the cinema and see good independent movies at the Ritz possibly
8. More Imax movies
9. Start playing chess/board/card games again
10. Read more books
11.Read film books/mags/articles
12. Read music books/mags/articles
13. Check out pawnshops/thrift stores/and ebay for coolstuff
14. Continue to listen to and discover GOOD music
15. Continue to be romantic/creative and shower Lo with affection
16. Be a better friend to those who have been a "true friend" to me and other people that mean a lot to me i.e. brother and mother
17. TAKE MORE PICTURES!!!

Since I've had this sort of epiphany, the world just shook. I swear! A good friend of mine suggested that I sit down and make a list of things I wanted to own. At first I thought it was a sort of pompous thing to do, but after my epiphany I'm almost sure it was a very precocious idea. I mean I can use the list as a way to achieve miniature goals throughout this fall[life] season. I figure it's a cool way to seek simple pleasures in life or a way to find myself a bit happiness every now and then and perhaps finally stay out of trouble. I'll see it as a sort of experiment on self-evolution. Anyway, here is the list:

Coolshit I want/must own:

1. Skull Candy Headphones (the Hesh or G.I. model/style)

2. A 4GB ipod nano

3. Shot glasses (a variety of different/funny/interesting)

4. A cool ashtray

5. A unique/vintage/urban coffee table

6. Unique/funny coffee/tea mugs

7. A pair of Nike classics

8. Sweet shades preferably chrome mirror aviator styled

9. A sweet pitcher for lemonade and shit

10. A new pair of high-top converses

11. Unique plugs (00 gage)

12. Different types of tea (like word-ly flavors)

13. Cool fitteds baseball caps

14. A pair of cutoff/fingerless mittens

15. MUSE posters/ dvds

16. A pet charmeleon ( a reptile of sorts)

17. My dream bike is a Schwinn (2007 voyageur/2007 SSx/2006 sting ray/2007 panther)

18. A dvd/cd burner

19. A projector

20. A set of turntables

21. Nice storage cabinets/chests... from Ikea possibly

It's made me happier just thinking about achieving everything and actually owning the items on the two list. I can't wait to see how the whole thing pans out. ^_^
