To Do List Before 35!

Life would be a little bit lame when there are no goals. Everyone should have a list of things to do or places to go before they die. Even every country has their own long term, mid term or short term plan. As for Malaysia, it's the Malaysia Plan which will be released every 5 years.
I have my own as well, but to make it easier and exciting, I here then will update the status of my challenges to reach the goals I've listed, a To Do List Before I reach 35, which is 8 years from now. So here it goes.

  1. Owning a house is now crucial in Malaysia when price is hiking fast. Yet, I have not decided where to own one when I will be moving a lot later on. I would love to settle down somewhere in Perak of course, where my parents and in laws are. Choices I have now are either to buy a house in the city and turn it into a rental properties or get a land in Perak and wait till I get a little bit older to build one. Challenge #1 : Own a property
  2. I love travelling. So this must be a part of my list. To travel far frequently would be financially difficult. So at the moment, before I reach 35, travelling to places nearby is good enough. Then after 35, the region to travel maybe could be extended further. At the moment, I've been to Singapore, Philippines (of course), Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, UK, Sweden and Norway. So... Challenge #2 : Travel to every South Korea, China, Turkey
  3. Earning a Degree or a Bachelor is seems not enough. People are trying to go further with their studies to the level of Master or PhD. I don't know whether at the moment I am capable to include studies in my married schedule. Life seems hectic at the moment. But if not now, then when? Challenge #3 : Earn a Master
  4. Last time when I was with my previous company, I went to Basic Japanese Language class as everyone thought that I was leaving to that country for a 2 years program, I did leave, but only to different employer. Hehe. I would love to continue such classes, but I don't know whether Nihon Go is helpful for me now. Arabic or Mandarin would be awesome though. Challenge #4 : Learn A Third Language
So guys, jom. Let's make some goals and starts planning!
