Do a new thing every week...

The spice girls told me too many times to ignore it. I need to spice up my life apparantly. So I want to try a new thing every week for the first few months. As it's one of those typical help yourself tips. But I figured it could be fun and all. Though probably going to wait for it untill after the exams.

However I need suggestions. And they can be original and a little crazy, just not too difficult, expensive or too illegal.

Now I was thinking to make it more exciting and after I've got enough useable suggestions, let you guys pick them out. Of course afterwards I'll let you guys know how it went.

So fire it up!

Current possibilities:
Ventriloquism in nightclub - Jujubee; silly but okay.
Go out in drag - Peasent Phill
Build sandcastle on the town square - Psychonaut
Doing Remi Gaillard like stuff - Hooahguy
Eating only orange food for a week -stratigos vasilios
Use your feet to eat - ibid.
Reveal an occultus faction -ibid.
pretend to be a bouncer - ibid.
Elevator fun (perhaps comb with Remi Gaillard) -ibid.
planking (how boring it may be) - Drunk Clown
Change religion... I'll take that as going to mosque like thing or something. Perhaps I can convince an Imam that I want to become a Muslim. - Fisherking
Public gymnastics - TS
tell a random person something good that happened to you lately - TS
go hitchhiking - TS
eat insects - TS
Eat indian - Fisherking
Cook a new meal - Fisherking

Date a guy.

Swim across the English Channel.

Have someone set your calander alarm (on your phone) to go off at random times throughout the next few weeks. Preferably in the 3-6am region.

Pick a fight.

Learn to become a ventriliquist. Start hitting night clubs and you will be all set!

Date a guy - err... no. One shouldn't mess with people's feelings.
Swim across the English channel - That's not something I could do like that. But it might be something worth doing in the further future. Not kidding.
Having set my alarm at random - That's not really trying something new is it. Nor is it doing something. And if you mean not sleeping a lot than it's far from doing someting new.
Pick a fight - Has happened already. But I don't want to pick a fight with someone as I don't want to be thrown out of the gymn either, plus it's kinda too illegal. Don't want to do stuff to make other hurt or myself too much.
Ventriloquism in night clubs - Verry silly but can be done I'll ad it to the possibilities list.

This looks like fun something new.

Is it something you want to invest some time in or is this more a one night thing every week?

If the latter, go out dressed in drag and go nuts. A friend of mine did this once (had some quasi professional help) and says he had a blast doing stuff he would otherwise get in trouble with.

Bring your own sand to the town square and build a sandcastle.

Get an old iPod, walk down a busy street, stop, yell: "I HATE THIS SONG!", throw the iPod at the pavement and keep on walking.

I can't put that much time into it as I would try something new every week.

Go out in drag you say? Okay I guess we could try that... Lets hope I don't like too much lol.

I'm not sure what you are suggesting...

Edit:
@ psycho:
If I can find an old Ipod, I could try it out. But it's more just doing a joke than really doing something.

On the sandcastle. I guess it could be an idea, if I can find a way to pull it of. I'll look into it.

Do anything Remi Gaillard does.
Like this.

- Eat nothing but orange coloured food for 2 weeks.

- Handstand walk everywhere.

- Use your feet to eat (i.e. holding cutlery).

- Ask people for spare change, when someone agrees to donate you a little, decline and run off yelling 'woop woop woop!' (Neg style).

- Reveal an Occultus faction.

- Wear black and pretend to me a bouncer in a store, don't let people in if thier names not on the list (clipboard optional). Could be a supermarket or a clothing store.

- Wait in elevators for people to come in, and either: fart, sneeze loudly or act claustrophobic and scream to startle them.

Meh, that's all I could think of for now. If you really want something to do, sit my exams!

That's the planking 'phemomenon'. A guy died over here doing that, tried to do it on a five story building, fell off and died.

It's called planking. Lying down as flat and as straight as you can on obscure objects or in obscure areas.

Hmmm perhaps some of his famous elevator jokes could be done.

-hmmm perhaps, but only for one week. I need to see if I can find enough orange things to eat. I need to get enough proteïns every week as well for my diet.

-Hmmm I'm not that good at handstands. I can stand on my head for a very long time though...

-That's gonna be a mess but why not.

-hmmm not really convinced

-Okay.

-Could be funny. I could do it at bouncerless bar or something. I'm not that big so I might not be that convincing, but I could take a friend with me. I've got a few insanely huge friends.

-I could do it or combine it with the Remi Gaillard thingy.

Yah, I know and only :daisy: do it.

:idea2:Try a new religion for a week. Keep changing them up though.

Either that or take up pole sitting.:laugh4:

Planking...sounds boring... but well it's very doable...so I guess I'll try it.

Changing religion? Well I could try out going to a mosque or something.

Join the military


Start a business


Buy a new car


Get a new girlfriend



Emigrate to a different country

Truly, I think I would start a bit smaller than most of the suggestions made so far and try cooking a new dish or mixing a drink you have never had.

Maybe go to an Indian or Greek Restaurant or try your self with a different look in clothing or hair cut.

It is much safer than free rock climbing or base jumping. It won’t upset parents and friends like changing religions and won’t disrupt your life quite so much or cost so much as some of the rest.

Besides, you are going to Berlin soon and that is something new for that week.

Oh, have you ever tried joining an army for just a week?

aye... i wouldnt do that last thing if i were u XD

ive done the same thing as u for a while, but my objective was do 1 crazy thing every day.

so heres a few, i did all of them

maak een koprol of radslag midden op de straat. (dunno how to put that in english)
tell a random person something good that happened to you lately
go to a prostitute and only make conversation
jump out of an airplane
go hitchhiking
eat insects

Do a somersault or a cartwheel on the middle of the street.

But don't do planking, didn't think you would take it serious. Planking is for :daisy:

@Fisherking I'm not going to get into all too crazy stuff. Obviously I'm not going to become a devout Muslim or Buddhist priest, nor am I going to buy a new car, join an army or something. Added trying Indian foot and cooking a new meal.

@ the stranger, those are some good suggestions.
I'll add a few of those.

@Drunk Clown, It's not something that exciting indeed. But it's not dangerous, not expensive or difficult. I'm gonna keep it in my possibility list.

What could possibly go wrong?

truly you should add talking to a prostitute. preferably when on a beach while watching the sun rise.

or you could just do one and not the other

Do what the Chasers War on Everything did.

Nightclub entry with girls and poor clothing. See how inappropriately dressed you can be before you get let in.

Change your username.

I don't have a kkk costume and I'd rather not wear it either.

Become a hipster for a week.

Then go to confession.

Reveal a fake Occultus faction.:deal2:

Go fishing!

That'd make you a scenester, not a hipster though.

This could be like that "Idiot Abroad" show.:laugh4:

Climb Mt. Everest. Become a Michael Jackson impressionist. Juggle chainsaws.

And do them all at once!

Diacetylmorphine

Go to Free Festival 2011 The Harder Styles (16 july atlantisstrand Almere) ...... HAKKUH!

Crack ten i guess pounds into small chance and try to give it away to people passing you by in the street.

Demolish your musical comfort zone.

Work out! And make a facebook account!

So far the only usefull suggestion is the go fishing one. But I hate fishing, I'm hyperactive... damn it.

Also I don't have a musical comfort zone. I've been listening classical music since I was a kid, I've been listening Capt. Beefheart since I was like 14,... There isn't much to expand here.

Maybe you're so alt that you've "done everything" already, and all that is left is too "mainstream". Are you hipster jesus?

Every time I tried to get my ex wife to try something new, she would say "not there."

Anyway, some suggestions:

Cover the first two letters of all the EXIT signs in a building with your own homeade letters SH.

Stand in an elevator and unbutton a shirt button for each passing floor and see who stays on to the top

Take your girl to a furniture store to "shop" for beds, and by "shop" I mean make out on as many beds as you can.

Go to a historical re-enactment dressed for the wrong period.

Put up a sign at a busy intersection that says "I buy ugly children" and use the phone number of someone you don't like (I use that one on ex wife @ once every 6 months)

Take your dog to the vet and try to have one leg removed because he runs too fast

No, but juggling chainsaw falls under the category too dangerous for example?

@MRD:
~D Perhaps I could try one or more of those.~D

Go to a Star Trek convention dressed as Mr. Spock or a Klingon.

As have I. What do you not listen to?

Hardstyle I assume.

Audition for a play.

Fixed that for you.

Mr. Spock and Klingons weren't in Star Wars. Perhaps he should go as Princess Leia or Chewbacca though. :)

I think that was the joke...or your joked the joke and now made me look silly...

ok here some more, ive done them too

beg for money
ride the train (or public transport) without ticket in 3 different countries on the same day without getting a fine.
become a man by walking the great wall of china (is tradition!) if you cant, go to madurodam and trample the miniature version.
watch all episodes of either dragonball and DBZ or Pokemon (all episodes with ash) or Avatar or fill in anime with more than 3 seasons

and some things i havent done

climb the biggest mountain on the continent youre on. that would be the mont blanc in europe if im not mistaken
watch all episodes of teletubbies

WRONG.

There's a higher mountain up in Georgia, I think.

EDIT: Russia in fact, mount Elbrus on the borders of Georgia.

Strap a small TV to your stomach and run around yelling "there's a baby in the sun!" while pointing towards the sun.

Based off of Stranger's idea.

Cocaine.

Okay, this might be going too far, lol...

EDIT: yes still asia...

Russia is asia

hmm it appears that geologically mount elbrus is european...

but politically its definitly in asia...

i guess i must give hax his due then, mountains arent that political. he is right.

Moros, go climb mount Elbrus

Walk in an odd pattern. R R L R R L L L R L R L J R R L R R L L L R L R L J.

J for jump!

And if that's too boring, climb Elbrus in that pattern...

Last time I went to got tricked into going to a hardstyle + other types of trance event (on the premise that there'd be hot women there), there were no hot women (except for a drug-dealer offering me pingers), got hit on by a 40 year old woman, the music was largely crap, overpriced drinks and entry, and the next day I felt like a train-wreck.

So my feelings towards that style of music is largely negative.

Ah, I failed to see that. Some older women wear their years well though. I see plenty that accomplish this.

Not if you use too much XTC, like those ladies there.

That I can understand! :)

BACK ON TOPIC:

Go to a gay bar wearing a little league outfit, sit at the bar, and ask random men "Coach, can I get a ride home?"

Free drinks all night

sounds like something youve done before XD\

i got one too

go some random place, take the first train that leaves or jump in the first car that will pick you up. perhaps pick a timelimit for how long you want to travel, or a distance limit. then when you arrive buy flowers and tell the first lovely girl you see you came all the way to marry her and if she looks at you weird as her if she hasnt got your letters. see what happens, if she start spraying mace all over your face, start running, if she calls the police, start running, if not, you may have found a place to sleep.
