10:10 PM: INNER SANCTUM (AKA bedroom)
The same way people write lists of places they should see before they die, I am writing a list of things I should do before I’m seventeen. Currently they are:
1. Be kissed be someone who is female, but not a relative, very old, very young, or covered in fur (i.e. get a girlfriend!)
2. Master the famous “One” by Metallica
3. See Children of Bodom live. (I might have to travel to Finland for this, but that is a small price to pay – at least metaphorically.)
4. Be the proud owner of the Randy Rhoads Flying V Jackson with blue ghost flames, ebony fingerboard, and mother-of-pearl shark fin inlays
5. Get something pierced or tattooed!
6. Be half as cool as people say my dad was.
Readers – what do you want to do before your next birthday?
