I have a lot on my list, things I want to taste, feel, and experience so that I can see how they are and understand how enjoyable they are for people who have already been living that lifestyle.
Being in an aeroplane or helicopter is one of them. Yes, this looks very common, especially in this era where people use air travel for easy transportation even within the country. I do not have any regrets that I have not been in an aeroplane before, but it is still one of the tasks on my bucket list. To be very honest, one of the major reasons I want to try it one day is to see whether it gives motion sickness the way traveling in a bus does for me. Maybe I could even end up opting to buy an aeroplane instead of buying a car, since I suffer from motion sickness a lot during road journeys.
But also, traveling by air is expensive, even though it has become a very common thing these days. It is a luxurious lifestyle and we must admit that. Honestly, the cost of using an aeroplane is the major reason I have not used one yet. The few times I have gone on long trips, I have always opted for road travel because it is cheaper.
Another item on my bucket list is going to the World Cup with Nigeria to support the Super Eagles. This seems like something that may take a long time to happen because Nigeria has been struggling with qualifications for the World Cup. Even for the next tournament after the coming one, nothing is certain. But notwithstanding that, I would love to travel to the World Cup one day with the Super Eagles, and it would be one of the biggest moments of my life.
In case you do not know, I am a big fan of the Super Eagles. I scream at the top of my voice whenever they are playing, and I would love to experience that moment at the biggest football tournament in the world. This may not add anything significant to my name, but it would add a beautiful memory that I would always reminisce about for the rest of my life if I ever get the chance to experience it.
This will cost me a fortune, especially considering that I may have to leave work for that period, but it will definitely be worth it whenever the opportunity comes.
Another item on my bucket list is to meet a ghost. I have written about this quest of mine before, and I have always had people say funny things about it. The truth remains that I really want to meet a calm ghost. I want to know what the supernatural world looks like and how it operates. I want to know if there is actually a heaven or hell. I want to know which of the religious practices is truly real, especially considering that some religions believe that when people kill humans on earth they will be rewarded in heaven when they die.
I want to know what really happens to humans when they die, and many other things like that. I just feel that the many side stories, movies, and teachings concerning these matters are mostly guesswork or just someone's imagination. Having a conversation with a “calm” ghost would give me the opportunity to ask questions and learn a lot of things.
