    Two words: "Hump everything."

    No but seriously everybody seems to think that given 24 hours to live they'd suddenly come to this huge shocking epiphany about how short life is, vow not to waste another second of it and go fulfilling their final wishes.

    But really there's probably just gonna be a lot of panicking and crying and by the time you're over the shock of it all there's not really much time for any enlightened living.

    Then...how if I change it into a week...
     
    Tbh that's still not enough time to do anything. I would have to tell my family and friends after a day or so of being in shock, then I would have to tell my job, then I would have to figure out how I want my funeral to go, how to best lessen the financial blow for my family, etc. All the things I want to do would take long planning and advance notice so I would have to focus on the here and now.

    I'm not a huge believer in the "do everything you ever dreamed you would do before you die" stuff anyway because I'm happy with my life experiences! I always want more but not badly enough to make my final days stressful and expensive.
     
    Yeah I just watched a video about a guy with ALS (I thought I'd see what all this ice bucket challenge stuff is actually about) and he's just been diagnosed at age 26. So I went and did a little bit of research about the disease and found out that it essentially shuts down your muscles one by one until you can't even speak or breathe, and most people who are diagnosed with it are dead within 3-5 years.

    So that guy who was actually kinda cute and looked perfectly healthy burst into tears immediately when he started talking about it, and his body is eventually gonna shut down and he's going to be dead, in all probability before his 30th birthday.

    So my point is, even given 3-5 years, I would just be panicking and crying every day until my grave, leaving no energy spare for to-do lists. If I'm gonna die, I don't want to know about it more than 2 hours in advance.
     
    One week? Well, I'd see if I could see my friends and family (my loved ones, pretty much). If I can't, I'll eat heaps of cake or something. If I can, I'll still eat heaps of cake, just with company.
     
    One week? get married and go to disney world.
     
    Take a car and just drive to my heart's content until I find a good place to relax out in the wild until my body ceases to function.
     
    Well, the time is too short. So probably I'll be with the people that I wanna be with. There's nothing more can make me happy than being with those people.
    That aside, I'll go to Japan and do everything I wanna do there. Japan is really a beautiful place and nothing beats it.

    But tbh, I just thought of that like for a minute. I never really know what I wanna do before I die and the time is short as well. But as I said, being with the people that I wanna be with equals to my happiness at its highest level, so I guess that's how it works, perfectly.
     
    Me? I'm going to give myself a week off.

    I'm going to quit my job. Tell them why. Say my goodbyes.

    I'm going to take all my money out of savings. (I have a really, really good life insurance policy through three people, and no one is dependent on me, so.) And spend put it to good use. I'd visit my little brother, who's having a baby this year. Give him and his girlfriend some money to put away for college for my to-be nephew.

    My life insurance should cover any funeral expenses and I have no debt at all, so I should be good there. I have a will as well, so that's set.

    I'll probably schedule a bonfire almost every night, drink and have fun. I'd play games. Maybe meet some of my CoD clan friends who are like a second family to me.

    I wouldn't tell anyone until the last day what was happening. I don't want crying or carrying on. No. The best person I'd want to be around is my best friend if this was happening. If I really had no chance and no way to change things. We'd just hangout, chill, drink, whatever. Lots of gaming. No tears from us. My parents though. Geez, that's another story.
     
    Spend quality time with my dog, friends, family, and probably hit up a couple buffets and ice cream places.
     
    I don't know what I'd do. I don't even know what I'm going to do on a normal day unless I have work or something like that.
     
    I would just do what I already do daily. Play Pokemon and Browser the internet. I live every day like I am already dead I guess lol
