Eat weird flavors of ice cream
- A friend once told me that she saw a wasabi flavored ice cream. I was really in awe as to what kind of maniac would think of such a thing because it would seem to be a direct contrast wouldn’t it? It turned me off yet it made me curios of what other flavors there may be. I need to find that wasabi ice cream ASAP! Just want to make sure that I don’t end up in the hospital though haha!

Learn to skate
- The X games have always interested me. Their unorthodox take on recreation really excites me as to how it feels to perform these seemingly outrageous stunts. Skating is a prime example because of the fantastic tricks one can perform with it and similarly, those jaw-trenching wipeouts. Maybe someday I could try it out(EXTRA CAREFULLY XD) someday.... But I need to lose some weight first hehe.
53.
Make my own animated series
- Aside from my other habits, watching cartoons and animated drawings is another grand addition. Compared to the sometimes-boring real world, these animated drawings produce vivid colors according to the desire of the artist. This freedom inspires me to aspire in creating my own series. In this world of mine, I am the master of everything yet it is fully dictated by my personality as influenced by others. One day you may even find a reference of your own influence in my work you know. :D
54. Get the new iPod Touch
- Man, I need to retire my old 2nd Gen Nano. It already has a dead-pixel line across the screen that resembles a strikeout. It even turns on and off by itself! o_O. The new rumored touch will have a camera as well and the new FW 3.0 included. This is in addition to the already countless number of apps hence what’s not to like about it? I need to save my some money!
55.
Get a Macbook
- Speaking of iPod, I’m really curious as to how a Mac feels like. Granted, I already have a PC but I don’t have a laptop hence this could be my chance in getting one. One thing I’m having a problem with though is compatibility. Some programs are only exclusive to Microsoft hence my doubts. If favors alter then maybe I could choose this over MS.
56.
Install a DvD drive on my PC
- HOLY CRAP! I cant’ believe that I still don’t have one on my PC. Blu-ray’s already beat HD-DvD in the format wars for its successor yet my PC still can’t read it. Speaking of which, should I just pass on this one and save up for a Blu-ray drive? Or get it for cheap? Guess I have to go for the latter.
57.
Have my own personal Yacht
- What defines wealth? Money? Residences? Personal airplanes? or Lands? Well according to Hollywood movies and documentaries, it’s the Yachts that are kings of the symbols for wealth. Having a comfort of you home on the wide open sea, what more could you ask for? For richness, this is a must.
58.
Have a wonderful life
- You may ask, ”Why be emo or something?” This is because everyday in the news, tragedy is always being talked about. It made me think that “Is tragedy inevitable for all of us?” I know that each and everyone of us experience pain and sorrow yet we forget that there are, similarly, equal amounts of joy that we take for granted because we’ve grown so used to them. So, to all my friends out there...thanks! :)
59.
Walk on the moon
- Ever remember the shady black and with film that documented Neil Armstrong’s first step on the moon? “One small step for man, one huge leap for mankind” No, I’m not talking about the technological implications of that, I’m talking about the experience itself. How does eating, walking , running....living in the moon feel like? I sure as hell don’t equate it to MJ’s dance move XD

Learning fencing
- This has got to be one of my most unusual aspirations. Guilty as charged, I use to like playing with swords when I was a child hence my imaginative nature. I held a fencing sword one time and it was heavy as heck! This won’t stop me from learning it though. As pointless and useless as it may be, it still looks fun doesn’t it?
61.
Archery!
- Since I mentioned fencing, I guess i should say this as well. First time I encountered this was in during my 4th year in HS. Being a physics club member(No I’m not a nerd, I joined for incentive purposes LOLOLOLOLOL) we were privileged to see the archery team in action. What I saw was extraordinary – a 6 year old boy shooting flawless bull’s eyes one after another. Almost immediately, I wanted to be one but the exorbitant price of the bow held me back. When the time comes, I surely will...
62. Learn to drift
- Those “The Fast and the Furious” movies are getting to me. I know it’s illegal but it just looks so cool! You may have noticed that my past blog entries often have me saying that I love speed. This is unsurprisingly inevitable right? Those fancy tricks can get me killed but it doesn’t hurt learn naman right? The greater the risk, the greater the reward!
63.
Lose some weight
- Ok I know, I’m chubby (huhuhu) and I need to straighten up. First, fix some eating habits Second, find an exercise routine. Third, form diligence and perseverance. Fourth, finish this blog entry so I could start....LOL
64.
Learn to ice skate
- I’ve never been good at ice skating. In fact, the 1st time I’ve tried it was equivalent to walking on butter while blindfolded. It seriously looks fun hence automatically putting it into my “to learn” list. In addition, it is one of the more privileged hobbies out there hence making it more appealing. Lastly, I can’t have my sister have all the fun can I?
65. Spend an entire week in a hotel
- The hotel is probably one my most favorite places in the entire world. Aside from the cozy things they have there, it gives you a sense of home. It can even provide you with things you can’t have at home(Room service anyone?). Plus, all-day-aircon is really neat and tempting. The only downside is price cause you have to be prepared the shed out a whole load of cash in order to fully enjoy it.
66.
Have Rock Band
- I’ve played a bit of Guitar Hero here and there but I haven’t owned this one yet. Many people say it’s better than the latter because it provides true band support. The ability to drop in and out of play with any combination of instruments is really appealing. Price is an issue because you really have to invest alot to truly enjoy what it offers since the instruments are not all compiled under one price, it is sold separately. Fully invested, it gives you the bang for your buck.
67.
Ride a hot air balloon
- Modern technology can sometimes be drab. This means that your calling can be found in the most unlikely – the primitive and outdated. This back-to-basics approach can be refreshing since it can form a bond between you and nature hence its subsequent revitalizing effects. They say that no other air experience can compare to that of a hot air balloon due to its calmness and pacing. Let’s put that to the test shall we?

Buy my own Sony Cybershot camera
- Seeing that I severely lack in the pictures department of my life, I really need my own camera. Slick in design and color variants, the cybershot is a must have. It also has the ability to connect to a TV screen, how cool is that? And since I have a PS3, I can also use it with that. I’m nearing adulthood, I need more memories of my youthful days. I guess it’s time to get vain – Lights. Camera. Action!
69.
See a shooting star
- Sound corny but at the same time cool. I know that it’s a common thing to look for one if you want your dreams to come true but this is not what I’m after though. It’s such a rare occurrence to see one hence its fascinating aspect. I also know that one recently happened but I fell asleep while waiting for it.(TOINK!)
70. Learning to play the drum
- Playing the guitar is one thing but the drums? It’s totally difference experience. The beat is an important part of the song hence inseparable in its creation. It is also one of the most exciting to use because of its versatility in speed and intensity. The repetitive movement it requires may be simple to look at but, in reality, complex to perform. Nonetheless, it is something to look forward to.
71.
Spending a whole day in Starbucks!
- Everybody knows how seductive Starbucks is. The ambience and aroma is simply refreshing. Primarily a coffee shop, it amazes me how they can transform it into a social hub that enables people to gather up and conjure huge amounts of their money on their items while hanging out. Though I’m not filled to the brim with cash, I would certainly spend a whole lot of time in it – not for the merchandise, but for the experience.
72.
Local Place hopping
- Many people always consider vacationing as a trip abroad. They think that it is more fruitful there because they’ve already grown here hence assuming for themselves that they know everything about this place. What they don’t realize is that there are far more things to explore here than just cities and nightlife. I for one haven’t gone to Mindanao but my recent Cebu escapade proved to be more than fulfilling thus I desire for more. The country truly is “Wow Philippines!.”
73.
Dancing lessons!
- I hardly have any extracurricular activities due to the pressures of college. As a child, I used to have a while lot of fun just by dancing, goofing off and making a fool of myself. But now I realize that I can totally have fun with this by making it a hobby of sorts. Granted, I did enjoy my L.E.A.P last year of hiphop dancing so why not?
74.
Going to church more often
- I have a committed sin to God by not doing this. I know it’s a tradition since childhood but I still fail to practice it most of the time. There are many reasons: school, events, work but mostly it’s just boredom. I’m a bad Christian am I right? I guess I’m still ways off from becoming saint but I’ll find a way to fix myself up.
75.
Spending less money
- I’m not exactly a thrifty person. I spend more often than I save and it’s not a good habit. It may have been nice if it were necessities but hell no because they barely classify as such. For all the values that education taught me I guess this is one of the few that I have to learn for myself. Youth has not been kind to it but I hope by experiencing employment, I will finally learn and embody it.
76.
Contribute to society
- I want to leave my mark on history by contributing something great society. Be it an invention or discovery, I want it to benefit the majority. The field of science may be the most likely greenest pasture but I believe that there are other fields that are just as opportune. It may not be now, tomorrow or next year, but certainly Marvin Quipones will appear in the history books. :D
77.
Finish my 77
th Blog Entry!
- Yey! Nearly 3 hours straight of using my brain does not sound fun at all but it surely defied my expectations. I can’t believe I can think of these many things after doing 50 of them so far without repetitions or rehashes. Despite the time it took to make this, It amazes me how many things I want to do in the world as reflected by all these ideas and wants. I’m looking forward to the next batch, Marvin signing out! :D
