    Default I'd love to try that...

    What are some things you'd love to try doing?

    I've always been very interested in burlesque and I'd love to have a go at it but it looks terrifying! It's made a pretty huge revival lately, and maybe I'd have a go just in my own home, but I bet there's a pretty big rush to put on a burlesque show!

    I would also love to try pole fitness!

    Archery. I want to be Robin Hood. Or alternatively Merida from Brave.

    I also really want to learn how to pilot an airplane. I REALLY want to learn that. Unfortunately it's really expensive to take lessons.

    I guess at this point it would be relearning, but still.

    I'll 2nd fencing. It's something I've wanted to do since I was young. My mom used to work w/ a guy who was a fencing instructor/Olympic Medalist, & he told her he'd give me lessons, but I never took him up on it.

    I'd also like to learn Archery.

    Stand-Up Comedy &/or Improv would be cool, if I weren't so shy.

    Living on a lost island

    Well more like trying what it would be like on island that actually has drinkable water source and nature so I can eat more than just fishes. Tho unless I win in lottery, this is going to be just my fantasy.

    Drugs

    No honestly I would love to try each drug once to see what it is like but I am never going to try it. It's something that I am curious about but not stupid about, the trout is dangerous. I will stay with my booze and weed twice a year.

    Archery and sport gun shooting.

    These I actually might do in a future so yeah

    Archery is so much fun. We had to do it for a few weeks as a part of our PE in high school and it was the best class ever. I was one of the top female archers but that was before I broke my arm, now I wonder if I have the strength or precision to do it again and also swing is one of the most fun dances ever, next to lindy hop (which is technically a swing dance I guess).

    I've wanted to do graphic design for a long time. I've only just started learning how to create images, but I'd really like to be able to produce real digital art and learn more about photoshop.

    I'd love to try working with charcoal to create art. It looks messy, but fun. Same with finger painting (lol). I would have so much fun using my fingers to paint.

    Pilates. I hear wonderful things.

    Surfing. I had so much fun wake boarding as a teenager, and I'd love to do I again. Surfing would be the next best thing but I am also terrified of the sharks D:

    Filmmaking. I desperately want to try my hand at small, indie filmmaking. I hope to achieve this in the next few years. I'd like to have a short film made by the time I'm thirty.

    Piano and guitar. I said I was going to learn to play one of these in 2014, and I did not.

    Cocaine.

    I think it would be super fun to try my hand at vlogging and web series, but I'm shy and nervous about criticism and appearing dorky or annoying.

    Singing, being part of a band, generally performing on stage. Unfortunately, my singing voice has long melted away from my chorus classes and I have no musical talent otherwise. Maybe someday.

    Poetry. I engage in several other forms of writing, but recently I've become very interested in poetry.

    Same. Also shrooms, LSD, and MDMA.
    ...

    Not to self: bring a taser with me for the meetup.

    Things I want to try:
    *Surfing: I have to find a friend who knows how to do it properly to show me. My other friend who used to live in the east coast was a surf instructor, but in an area with really gross water.
    *Playing bass guitar: It would be cool to also learn some bass guitar simply just for fun and because I love the sound of the bass.
    *Snorkeling: I would also like to snorkel but need to be a warmer climate for that. xD Maybe I'll get to do that this summer.
    *Skiing: I've done snowboarding a few times, but now I'd like to try skiing.
    *Water skiing: I love jet skiing and pretty much all water sport so should be fun to try.
    *Quail: Apparently it's delicious.
    *Shooting guns: I need some sort of skills for a zombie apocalypse aside from being able to plant stuff.

    Oh, this talk of scuba diving brings to mind something; Deep-sea diving. Don't get me wrong, I'd like to scuba as well, but what I really want to do is climb into some rough tough little sub and dive into the abyssal depths, so dark and deep that C'thulhu would think twice before heading there.
