Ban, Pujan: Bucket List

Like many people, I have a bucket list of stuff that I want to do in my life. Here are some of the personal achievements that I want to attempt before I die.


  • 1. To become a successful engineer
  • Since childhood, I have been deeply interested in scientific topics; they attract me. During my high school days, I actively participated in science activities including quizzes, experiments, and exhibitions.

  • 2. Learn to play guitar
  • Everyone loves music and I’m no exception. But mostly I love playing guitar. I have always wanted to learn to play the guitar but because of studying I had no time for it.

  • 3. Open an orphanage rehabilitation center
  • Back in Nepal, many children are parentless. Their life is so miserable that they don’t even have a proper house to live in or food to eat. Few care about such children. So, I want to create an environment for them which will make their life easier and more meaningful.

  • 4. Make a tour of The United States
  • Before I die, I want to tour parts of United States. I want to visit and watch the Geysers at Yellowstone National Park, explore the Carlsbad Caverns, and tour the Boston Harbor, Brooklyn Bridge, The Liberty Tower, and Liberty Bell. I want to experience all the natural and man-made wonders of the United States and to remember them always as a part of my life’s happy memories.

  • 5. Experience bungee jumping
  • Watching others bungee jump is fun. I want to share that fun too. I want to experience the thrill, fear, excitement; one can get from this sport.
