What i would love to do next year

Okay, so next year is the big 35 for me.
I have pretty much done everything i wanted to do (if i look back to my top priorities at age 18):
1. Graduated med school: sorted
2. Studied abroad: totally sorted..domo arigato Dalhousie in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
3. Lived abroad: yup, now in Australia
4. Travel the world: absolutely killing it
5. Specialized: in general practice and also very good in Sports med, women's health, respiratory and Emergency.

by accident things that i accomplished without thinking too much is:
1. no debt: yuck, glad i don't have credit card debt
2. an apartment: with my super sister Aiza
3. a retirement fund: thank you KWSP and super
4. My old car which is totally spiffy: Squid.

So, i am a pretty happy Betty..i have this new idea where i will do 35 new things next year for me.
1. set up my own business, hopefully a bookstore cum cafe
2. Go to Kyoto and view cherry blossoms April 2013
3. trekking in Peru: https://www.acrossthedivide.com/products/event/p-00364.html May 2013
4. swim with whale sharks March to June 2013
5. Summit Mt Haleakala with Chris K and Doris Chau in August 2013

That is 5 so along the way i have to do 30 more things:):maybe a dive license, tandem skydiving, sand dune boarding, ostrich riding to start?... Hmmm.

Entitlement or a right?. Quebec erupts.
