one day i will live, and it will be fabulous


deeds to do before i die...



♥ get a tattoo of a swallow on my ankle

♥ write a novel about truth, beauty and love



♥ board with my friend gen in a little wallpapered house, stuffed with threadbare couches, scented with incense, and filled with the crackly sound of old records


♥ drink ten times my weight in tea


♥ change someone's life irrevocably





♥ become a vegetarian

♥ cut my hair like audrey hepburn's in roman holiday, or maybe dye it red as flames



♥ dance on a sheet of bubble-wrap in the middle of the city

♥ travel to iceland... (I'm not sure why, but it's always sounded very beautiful)

♥ live


what is a deed you would like to do before you die? i'd love to know... :)

    what a beautiful list.

    my deed would have to be - make a change.
    this could be big or it could be small, just something i am proud of.

  3. Sv: Thank you! :) Yes I have the title of my blog from Lykke Li. <3

    What a lovely list. Before I die I want to have lived in both Japan and New York, and I also want to write at least one book.

  4. oh my gosh, we are so alike [in a good way, of course]! i'm so desperate to get a sparrow/swallow tattoo, although i'm terrified of the pain! i love to read & it'd be magical if i could write my own book :) yes, i'd like to live before i die! i adore tea, and oh, you must be brave, cutting off all your hair like audrey! roman holiday was so lovely, i adore black & white movies! and gosh, "drink ten times my weight in tea" i think i've already done that by now :) red hair is amazing, i would love to do that, although i don't think it would go down too well - i'm asian, after all ♥

  5. Lovely list, I've never made one of these on papers, simply keep one mentally, but I suppose a must forget a number of things that way.

    Belated thanks for your sweet comment! ♥

  7. I like your list very much. I used to be a vegetarian, and I plan on becoming one one day in future again (I eat chicken now)...and I've probably already drank 10X my weight in tea (I drink several cups of sencha a day)...
    I want to have a lovely place of my own (I mean really mine, not owned by a bank, these things matter to me)...with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and books to fill them, a kitchen that is cozy and functional, and a peace of peace and warmth...
