I'm doing 43 things
So far I’ve only driven a stick-shift around parking lots… Hopefully with a little more practice I’ll be confident enough to try it out on a real street!

I’ve never screamed at the top of my lungs, anywhere. I’m generally not a loud person at all—but if I’m going to scream somewhere, I would want it to be the Grand Canyon. I think it would be so energizing to stand there, looking at that majestic view, and just let it all out. Hearing the echo would probably be pretty cool, too.
I like how this goal is sort of open-ended… You could mean that you want to learn to fly an airplane, helicopter, ultralight, etc…. or that you want to learn to fly in a more metaphysical sense, without the help of any machines. I’d be up for any of the above :)
