The Independent's 30 before 30

Having recently written my own take on the 30 before 30 list, The B425, I noticed that The Independent currently have a list of their own up. Now their list is more focused on things that Kate Middleton has done, but I figured it's worth a look. The list covers some things Kate has done, some things that the article author has done. Though I can't say that all of these are recommendable or even affordable/possible, it's definitely worth a read.


1 Bungee-jumped in a Third World country
2. Pulled pints (Done. Badly.)
3. Passed driving test 
4. Got a proper job (Done, depending on your definition of 'proper job')
5. Inhaled (As in smoking? Done, not as a smoker but I tried. Ick!)
6. Been kicked out of a party
7. Had a scrape with the police (Done, but it was nothing major at all)
8. Bedded a royal
9. Drunk a 1982 Grand Cru Classé
10. Been to Glastonbury
11. Left home (Done)
12. Holidayed in the Caribbean
13. Thrown a party for 200
14. Appeared in a national newspaper (Done)
15. Fallen in love (Done)
16. Fallen out of love (Done)
17. Appeared on television (Done)
18. Been on a road trip (Done)
19. Lived abroad (Done)
20. Had pretentious arguments about philosophy until the small hours (Done, though doubt pretentiousness)
21. Started a novel (Done, aim to finish this year)
22. Been in a band (Done)
23. Taken part in a demonstration because your friends did
24. Joined the scouts (Done, but Brownies)
25. Seen New York
26. Bought a house
27. Attended four weddings and a funeral 
28. Reinvented yourself (Done, regularly)
29. Inherited
30. Raved on a Thai beach

So out of all of those I've already done at least half of them. They range from fairly standard such as pulling pints to bedding a royal - I doubt this is the kind of list for everyone.
Which of the things on this list have you done thus far?

p.s You can now see my blog up on the main 30 Before 30 website in the Listomania section.
