#Bucket List I have been making this list in my head for about an year now. It was time I put it down on paper gist. I have dreamed of doing these things in my life. Things which couldn't make it to this gist, despite being on my bucket list, are professional ambitions and some personal objectives (since it is a public gist). Each item on the list represents my deep love and yearning for it. Here it goes...

##Driving & Automobiles

1. Drive through the USA from east to west in a favourite car.
2. Drive an F1 car in Anderstorp, Sweden.
3. Drive a race-modded BMW in Rundskogen, Norway.
4. Drive between two cities of India, separated by a distance of 1500km or more.
5. Complete the Mille Miglia circuit in a favourite car.
6. Drive the Nürburgring in a favourite car.

1. Detect the person entering the room and automatically open the door, lock the door when a person leaves
2. Automatically wake up "a computer" and open some programs on it (configurable)
3. Play music according to time of day and recent music preferences (difficult)
4. Automatically toggle lights and curtains based on ambient light in the room.(using motors and such, but the hardware comes later, if we can just generate the right signals, that would be a huge step)
5. Have 2-3 "profiles" for the room which can be toggled by voice commands.
6. Integrate all this with mobile (Optional)
7. Identification and authentication of all people entering the room, if face not present in database, say unknown person.
8. RFID tag all "movable" items in room and detect when sth is taken out.
