Most of the things I would use with that description are time wasters and generally not enjoyable. I live life to accomplish my goals so I have something to be motivated by. They are not arbitrary if they are what you desire. Live every day like it's my last? Impossible to do because I would pay no mind to the future. Trust me, I haven't accomplished anything besides good grades. If I died now my life would have been meaningless. Sorry to sound all depressing but it's the truth.

There is no beauty in the mundane? Trust me, if you knew you were to die in 1 minute, you would savor everything around you. It is entirely possible to live every day like it was your last and still have goals. When you realize that the journey is just as important as the destination, you are truly living.
I might savor the one minute but I wouldn't enjoy it. But I think I'll just agree to disagree on this one. Although, I must ask what's the point of the journey if you don't reach the destination?
If I die and god is real, im so screwed.
