Normally I think of this as a drinking game. Yay, college!
But I suppose there are cleaner cut versions around. Here's mine:
Never Have I Ever...
- Been west of the Rockies - the farthest west I've traveled was when we went to Colorado for our honeymoon. We stayed in Estes Park, spent some time in Denver, Boulder, and Winter Park. I'm not sure which of those is the farthest west. Hopefully we're going to fix this with a trip to Seattle in the next few years.
- Been to Europe - I so want to change this, with every bone of my body. Some day.
- Played a school sport - I blame private school for this, mostly. But also, I'm an individual sport kind of gal. I rode horses from middle school through college, and competed in lower level shows. But my "team" was just me and my horse. Does being the manager of the volleyball team in 7th grade count for this one? I was the first ever nerd to actually volunteer for that job. Go me!
- Broken a bone - knocking really hard on wood about this one. I've fallen off of plenty of horses in my day, and I'm pretty clumsy in general. But lucky me, no broken bones so far.
- Fired a gun - this may seem like an odd one, but hunting is really big where I live. Almost all the guys hunt, and most girls learn to shoot a gun at some point. Having not grown up here though, I missed out on this. So sad (dripping in sarcasm here). This is not really something I plan on doing either.
- Ran a marathon - I am doing this in October!
So, what's on your "never have" list?
Come see some of the other bloggers lists and join in on the conversation!
i have never been to Europe or played a school sport either!!
ReplyDeletei hope to go to Europe in the next couple of years.
cute blog!
Thank you! I'm not sure when Europe is going to happen, but it's definitely in my future. Probably when I'm retired...so only like 30 more years to wait!
DeleteYou need to get west, my friend! A lot of people said broken a bone. I guess maybe it's not as common as you might think? Yay for the marathon!
ReplyDeleteI guess not! Come to think of it, I only had one childhood friend who ever broke a bone while we were in school. So maybe not so common!
DeleteI loved playing sports in school. Oddly, I never did track or cross country, but I was a cross country manager---so managers unite! Ha! I think it's really cool that you ride horses. That's something I could add to my "Never Have I Ever" list. Unfortunately, I can't add "broke a bone". Been there, done that. I guess that's the negative side effect of doing so many school sports.
ReplyDeleteI haven't ridden in a few years, and it's definitely something I miss. But it's so expensive! Hopefully I can get back into it someday. Like once Emily is out of college... Ha!
DeleteI've only done one thing on your list! I went to Great Britain a couple times in my early 20s. I can only imagine what it must be like for a Florida girl to be residing in the freezing Minnesota winters - stay warm & thanks for visiting my blog the other day!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
-Bess-
There are definitely some challenging days!
DeleteI think we have a lot in common because I agree with you on this entire list! I am so inspired, however, that you're running a marathon! That's awesome!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up!
I never played a school sport, either. My friends wanted me to do Cross Country or tennis with them but when I heard the coaches made them run laps and up and down hills at practice I was like "uh... no thanks."
