CD, that is a most worthy bucket list.
The first three should be on everyone's bucket list.
I strongly suspect CD will most definitely take care of the first three items.
Methinks, you have already done the first three.
The other seven have some pretty lofty goals, but as you know, we serve a Mighty God.
CD, At age 29 I was lonely and seemingly destined to a life without a wife... I dated, but the girls I liked, didn't like me... and the ones that liked me, I didn't like... I had reconciled myself to be a bachelor for life... but God had other plans... I was not a Christian at this time... however, I met this lovely lady, fell head over heels in love for her... asked her out, she accepted, we went to see the movie "M.A.S.H." at the Robert E. Lee Theatre in New Orleans on Friday night, July 22, 1970... that very night, after I gave her a sweet little kiss on her lips at her front door, I got back into my car... and non-Christian, agnostic, unsaved and non-believer EC silently says a prayer to a God he doesn't really know exists or not... "God, if you exist, let me marry this young lady"... lo and behold, EC and that lovely young lady were engaged in a month and EC got that young lady as his wife on the night of Saturday, January 16, 1971 at Calvary Baptist Church on General De Gaulle Avenue in Algiers, Louisiana... that's the west bank of New Orleans, across the river from the main part of town... we have celebrated over 50 years of wedded bliss now and are still counting... EC always wanted to marry a cheerleader and a Christian lady... and God arranged it.
CD, we serve an awesome God... all things are possible with the Lord God Almighty.
On #4, go on the internet and travel to Israel, Scotland, Peru and Japan... you can do it free of charge... #8 contact your friends by telephone at least... try to visit your old friends and the places you grew up in... #6 finish that novel... pick a language #5 and study a language on the internet... you can do it free of charge... just learn the basics... that would be plenty enough... be realistic, don't expect fluency.
And lucky #7... join a singles group at a church or online.
And maybe, just maybe... God has a lovely lady in mind for CD, too.
I hope all of your dreams come true, my friend.
