    Soon as I found out id break up with my boyfriend so hopefully he would move on straight away so I could see him happy and make sure he'd be ok when I went
    Id visit all my family and give them all a grand each
    Then on the last day id go to the park where me and my boyfriend had our first date and carve our names in a tree then sit next to the tree and sleep till it was all over

    i would think it must not be too serious of a relationship if he can move on and be happy in 10 days.

    meditate. ten days really isn't long enough to accomplish any more then any other ten days would have been. isn't even long enough for things i would otherwise spend the money on to arrive.
    eat well and, if physically possible, travel, because why not. but not in a frenzied manor either. but to savor everything. go to beautiful places. ride through them alone or with complete strangers.
    i wouldn't completely rely on the diagnoses either. maybe i'll be dead and maybe i won't. just enjoy as best i can what there is.

    well, yes and no. there is the nothing-to-lose effect after all, if there's no future to preserve.

    i think the dumbest thing to do, would be to run around crazy, trying to do all the things you hadn't done, because you were too scarred, too lazy, or they were against the law.
    you'd probably turn your ten days into five, if not three or two. unless of course that's what you wanted.
    i just can't see that myself.
    odds aren't really that good that you actually be able to do all of them, even if you accepted the proposition of spending the last nine of them in straight jacket inside a room with rubber walls.
    ten days is long enough to do more then sleep and meditate of course, unless you were strapped down in a hospital be, which the odds are you would be.
    but only if you carefully and calmly tend them, and then savor what enjoyment you can squeeze out of them.
    and i don't thing the bast way to do that, would be to attempt to do multiple things you moat likely have no idea how to go about.
    i would spend them in such simple pleasures as would already be comfortably familiar to me.
    for many people that would be with people they know,
    but for me, that would be preferably alone.
    and i would spend a lot of that time, sleeping and meditating, and also fantacizing about the kind of world i would like there to be.
    and if possible you know, creating the kind of illustrations i do, of it.

    (most of which is, of course, pretty much as i spend any other ten days now)

    I'd prove the doctors wrong, and go on a skydiving trip without a shoot in die in less than 10 days.

  12. I go to the poorest place I can find and start hangin' with the chitlens. By which I mean children. Maybe if I can't do anything else I buy the poor fellas a few Porsches. The automobiles will remind them of me when I'm dead, and hopefully they can drive.

    I know a great music video (“Kill Me” by “Make The Girl Dance”) with almost exactly the same topic: check out what these two french DJ’s would do with 8 days left to live and 30.000 dollars in cash :)

    The only thing i can foresee myself doing or in this case not doing is not showing up to work. Everything else would be questionable and would most likely depend on whatever the hell i feel like doing.

    Luckily i don't have any issues with anyone i work with. Though i'm pretty sure some of them have issues with me.

    I've actually thought of this question seriously lately, for whatever reason

    In my purely hypoethetical fantasy world i would travel the world, do a bucket list, blah blah

    In real life i think i would just want to sit still for a while with everyone i love

    not much i'd expect to be able to do in 10 days i haven't already done in 68.
    so i'd just go on, the same as any other 10 days.
