2009-08-03 [Linderel]: No time like the present :D

2009-08-03 [Skydancer]: hmmmmm

2009-08-03 [Linderel]: Careful there :P

2009-08-03 [Skydancer]: Bloody internet, keeps timing out....

2009-08-03 [Skydancer]: Thanks, was trying to put the list header in and the net crashes.

2009-08-03 [Teufelsweib]: this list is probably going to grow loads, these are just the things I can come up with atm :)

2009-08-03 [Linderel]: Vorkje, you have a very good point. *adds northern lights to her own list*

2009-08-03 [Skydancer]: I actually have seen them when I was young. The solar storms were so intense they came all the way down to Ohio and were visible for weeks.

2009-08-03 [Linderel]: Cool :3

2009-08-03 [Linderel]: Bwhehehehehe change in wording.

2009-08-03 [sequeena_rae]: Awesome wiki!! Will deff come back to this!

2009-08-03 [Teufelsweib]: lots of people here go to Taize as well and really have good experiences of it :)

2009-08-03 [Triola]: I've been there once, but only for two days, so I want to return and stay longer for a fuller experience :)

2009-08-03 [Triola]: And you should put me on the list of people you want to meet as well, then you can tick it off in a week :D

2009-08-03 [Teufelsweib]: that's a great idea! =D then I can say I've achieved something xP

2009-08-03 [Triola]: xD

2009-08-03 [Triola]: Aww, I love JD and Turk <3

2009-08-18 [Triola]: You realise you can't climb a fjord because it's a body of water? <.<

2009-08-18 [Linderel]: Hmm, that might make it slightly difficult, yes xD What am I wanting to climb, then?

2009-08-18 [Triola]: Uhm, the fjord area? The fjord valleys/mountains/whatever? I dunno :P

2009-08-18 [Linderel]: Fjord mountains is good enough for me xD

2010-02-22 [Linderel]: Bump. :)

2010-02-23 [Rainbow Dragonflies]: XD I need to make my list.

2010-05-11 [Linderel]: Haven't been to the Globe yet, Trin?

2010-05-11 [Triola]: No, I've been lazy >.> I will, though!

2010-05-11 [Linderel]: :D

2010-05-14 [Duke Devlin]: Ooooo :D <3

2010-05-23 [wicked fae mage]: This reminds me of Scrubs...JD's list where he does a triathlon xD

2010-05-24 [Nioniel]: Ooooh!!!

2010-05-27 [wicked fae mage]: Carrie, remember that one thing you me and Dee did and got away with that was super illegal? You can cross that illegal getting away thing off your list x)

2010-05-29 [MyAlterEgo]: oh yeahhh! *smack forehead* I forgot about that, lol.

2010-05-29 [wicked fae mage]: Lol I haven't x)

2010-06-09 [Silver Moon]: Is this open for all of us?

2010-06-09 [wicked fae mage]: Yes, hun

2010-06-09 [Linderel]: So nice of you to answer for me. -_- Next time, don't. Especially since it really isn't. I apologise for not having been clear enough, but this wiki was actually meant for my friends. I have now removed a couple of lists, but if you need to, you can still see them by viewing a previous page version.

2010-06-09 [moira hawthorne]: interestin.. that people who were invited to this wiki got their list removed... im not cryin tho... lottas other wikis to watch

2010-06-10 [Kaimee]: Hmm, maybe people shouldn't invite others to someone else's wiki, without asking the owner first if they want them there? :P

2010-08-06 [Akayume]: [Kaimee], you made a fake alias and bank account? XD Kudos to you! :D (I feel like a creeper, but that was too awesome NOT to comment on!)

2010-08-07 [Kaimee]: Yes :) It's not very different from my real name, people constantly got it wrong, leaving me with heaps of paperwork under a different name that helped establish my credentials :P

2010-08-07 [Linderel]: Why do you want a horde of feminists to chase you down, Vorkje? :P

2010-08-07 [Teufelsweib]: if I explain, it might not come true! oh wait, that's not the way dreams work is it? :P

2010-08-07 [Linderel]: Nnnope. :P

2010-08-07 [Teufelsweib]: in that case, I'm afraid I don't always have an explanation why I do or want certain things. in fact, I have that most of the time. so I'm afraid this is another one of those things. I just want it xP + it'll mean I did something to really piss them off, and I love pissing off feminists.

2010-08-07 [Akayume]: I hate that. XD My last name is "Lunderby" [Kaimee], and it's pronounced "Lunderbee", so people always spell it wrong and/or try to correct me on the spelling of my own last name. XD

2010-09-20 [Akayume]: I want to visit Australia too Nioniel! :D

2010-09-21 [Nioniel]: Well, if I sell enough photography, I just may get there someday. ;)

2010-09-21 [Akayume]: Or if you find a million dollars on your front step. :O It could happen!

2010-09-21 [Nioniel]: God, I hope so!

2010-09-21 [Akayume]: Some guy in MN found like $20,000 by train tracks and brought it to the police. No one claimed it, so he got to keep it. Lucky bastard. >.>

2010-09-21 [Nioniel]: Tomorrow, before work, I shall be haunting the train tracks.

2010-09-21 [Akayume]: Capitol idea. XP

2010-09-23 [Lothuriel]: YAY!! I so added. 

I so feel you on the last name [Akayume]. My middle name is spelled Mae but pronounced "May". My last name was Williamson yet NO ONE could ever seem to remember the "o-n" at the end and wanted to call me Williams, which bugs the snot outta me. Now that my last name is Tackett, well that one is as ordinary as it gets and is pretty hard to mess up, lol

2010-09-23 [Linderel]: Oi, Loth, if you come to Finland you're going to have to visit :O

2010-09-23 [Lothuriel]: ^__^ Naturally!!! I fully plan to visit Finland before I am 40! That gives me 5 years! I have so many friends there and I am just fascinated by Finland! I want to experience Midsummer's night (I think that is what it is called) at a cabin by the lake, at least once before I die. If I can do that, I will be a happy, happy woman!

2010-09-24 [Triola]: I feel like my list should be longer, somehow :/ I fail at having dreams and ambitions

2010-09-25 [Akayume]: Awww! Maybe you'll add to it as time goes on? :D Mine would be pretty short too actually. O.o

2010-12-15 [Linderel]: Welcome, Cap'n! ^__^

2010-12-15 [Captain Rachel Black]: Yay! (dances)

2010-12-16 [Akayume]: (: *is a creep* XD

2011-04-13 [Rice]: CONGRATS! This has become our featured wiki for this week. :3 A wonderful idea!

2011-04-13 [Alexi Ice]: Congrats on the feature!

2011-04-13 [The Last Dragoon]: *plays fanfare*

2011-04-14 [Akayume]: I want to make one. :O

2011-04-14 [Linderel]: Umm. Just one problem: this isn't open for everyone. :/

2011-04-14 [Akayume]: Awww. Sorry Lin. :( Neverrrrmind.

2011-04-14 [Linderel]: Well, that was just a general comment because the feature claimed that this was open for everyone. <_< Now I'm pondering what to do. Imma send you the password anyhow, Akay.

2011-04-15 [Alexi Ice]: The feature is a liar. Lol. Shall we change it?

2011-04-15 [Linderel]: Please do. :/

2011-04-15 [windowframe]: If it bothered you that much you should have said something before *prod*. <_< The text is changed now, though. :)

2011-04-15 [Nioniel]: Cute list, Akay. <3

2011-04-15 [Linderel]: Before when? I only noticed the feature yesterday.

2011-04-15 [windowframe]: I expected you to object a week in advance, duh. :P Yesterday - when you noticed it was featured? Instead of waiting for us to ask you if you wanted it changed? <_< 

2011-04-15 [Chimes]: Akaaay<3 ^^

2011-04-15 [Linderel]: I'll just use the concussion I suffered on Wednesday as my defence here. :3 Plus I just assumed that, having this wiki on watch, you'd notice soon enough. I was also wondering why no one checked whether it actually was open for all. xD

2011-04-15 [iippo]: It's really too bad that it isn't open, it'd be a really cool wiki if it were :) It's a nice idea anyhoo.

2011-04-15 [windowframe]: I think we all assumed it was, having seen it linked in other public places and all (and I think that's a pretty reasonable assumption <_< 'oh hey, this link is being pasted around on other public pages, it's probably public too').

2011-04-15 [Akayume]: I have such simple wishes. (:

2011-04-15 [Linderel]: It originally was public. Then I had a change of heart. I just don't recall posting it on other public pages, myself... hmm. *shrug* I might re-think again, fickle as I am.

2011-04-15 [windowframe]: You mercurial being, you. :O

2011-04-15 [Linderel]: I am so bad. :(

2011-04-15 [Akayume]: Tsk tsk. :P

2011-05-12 [Mortified Penguin]: Ah, what? I can't even add that I want to kill a unicorn before I die? Screw this. *kicks [Akayume]'s shins*

2011-05-12 [Akayume]: Whai me? :(

2011-05-18 [Akayume]: Why did you take yours away? :(

2011-07-17 [Akayume]: I'm excited to cross some of these off. :D

2011-07-31 [Nioniel]: I'll be able to cross one of these off, tomorrow! :)

2011-07-31 [Akayume]: YAY!

2011-08-06 [Nioniel]: ^^

2011-09-22 [Nioniel]: Woo! I got to cross another one off! :D

2012-07-21 [Nioniel]: ;) I may be mostly absent from here, but I'm glad that I'm at least able to strike out another bucket list goal of mine despite how busy I've been!
