2. Have an existential crisis without a doubt.

3. Im not 20 but I don’t think age really makes a difference.

   If you know you have a short time to live I would ( as long as possible) use that time to do the things I really wanna do.

   Ofcourse I would break down first, like that’s the normal thing to do.

4. Probably just hit up a drug dealer and tell him to give me a party platter of all the good shit then picking up some hookers.

5. I would prob sell most of my shit and travel the world.

6. Go to my parents’ place and probably spend my last few moments with them

7. I learned on the cusp of turning 30 that due to genetic issues my chances of seeing 60 is unlikely and chances of seeing 50 is 50/50 (heh).

   36 this year so 14 more years in the tank statistically.

   You get used to it.

8. Couple thangs

9. Open up credit cards like there’s no tomorrow and have a ball. Travel, hookers and, drugs. Set up my family then, pick a beautiful spot on the planet. When it was finally time and off myself in a way that doesn’t inconvenience others. I think it would ironically be the most freeing moment of my life.

10. My routine wouldn’t change until my body forced me to stop working and going to the gym. Only things in my bucket list are sex and some foods, which is easy to get if I save money.

11. Go to every continent to fuck there.

12. Depends on how much time I have left. Definitely stop taking masters courses tho. Otherwise in the short term live my life normally

13. It depends on the condition. How long do I have? Am I contagious? What is my treatment schedule like. If it’s cancer, do I need chemo immediately?

    I’m just going to assume that I have a few years left or something.

    I’d put my two weeks notice in, go on a vacation (while I still have some semblance of my health remaining). Ride my bike around some famous spots in Europe, eat some amazing food, and when I get back probably just look to enjoy the amount of time I have remaining with family and friends. My local area doesn’t have death with dignity laws, otherwise I would look into that… As it stands, I’ll just have to not think about the inevitable suffering the state is going to make me go through…

14. I’m not in my 20’s.

    I’d let loose and enjoy the last time I have. I’m looking forward to dying.

15. Early 30’s here, wouldn’t care too much. I’m kinda over life anyway.

16. A bunch of hookers and cocaine

17. Strip clubs

18. I guess ill die

19. I’d just jump.

20. 5 years from now.

21. Going hard on prostitutes, drugs and other forms of debauchery to alleviate the pain and anxiety of knowing that death is so near.

22. Depends on how much time would I have left. If there’s only a month for me, I would quit my job and spend rest of my time looking after my cats and family.

    When I know everything has been taken care of, I will disappear, drive up to the wild and end myself. (Preferably by .45ACP 1911)
