Dogs are more than mans best friend. It will take a dog owner to truly understand all of these wonderful things dogs do.

1. Their joy every time you get home.

No matter if you've been gone five days, or five minutes they are always excited to see you.

2. The way they run through the snow

Unlike humans, their legs are pretty short. Short legs and tall snow banks make for some pretty funny entertainment.

3. The way some dogs slightly stick their tongue out

Nothing is cuter. Nothing.


4. How the manage to sleep in the funniest ways

Nothing is better than belly up.

5. The expression when you scratch the perfect spot

The face, the leg shake, all an indication you are doing something right

6. How stupid they look while swimming

No dog looks normal while swimming. Its a fact.

7. Their reaction to any food or treat

Even when you just open the drawer or cabinet where they know the treats are they get excited.

8. The sad eyes

Every dog has them, and knows how to use them.

9. They always choose the worst spot to fall asleep

Right in the middle of the bed. Every. Time.

10. How happy they always make you feel

Nothing is better than a happy dog.

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
