From my bucket list to yours.

12 Suggestions For Your Summer Bucket List
blog.raveis.com

Summer is in full swing, which means there is plenty of time to cross skydiving off the old bucket list or some other stereotypical death defying feat. I don't know about you but I love hearing about other people's bucket lists because I am always searching for new things to add to mine. While I expect everyone to have a few overused bucket list items I want to suggest a few that you may not have thought of before!


1. Go hotel pool hopping.

I've always wanted to go pool hopping at each rooftop hotel pool down at the beach.

2. Fill water balloons with paint, attach them to a canvas and throw darts to pop them and make art.

I know I can't be the only one who saw that scene from princess diaries with Mia and her mom and wanted to do that.

3. Rooftop star gazing.

Yeah sorry, cliche I know.

4. Get scuba diving certified.

I don't know why but scuba Steve from the movie Mr. Deed's as a kid was what sparked this fascination.

5. Take a road trip in a sleeper van.

Save time and money not having to search for a hotel and minimalism can teach you much more than you expect.

6. Shower in a waterfall.

Actually sometimes chasing waterfalls is fun.

7. Actually wake up for that sunrise beach yoga class you've always set your alarm for.

There's some things you might not be cut out for but you still just have to mark them off the bucket list.

8. Take a photography class.

Lets be honest, no one knows what those extra settings mean on your camera, so go find out before you pass up a great sunset photo opportunity on your travels.

9. Drive through the middle of a red wood tree.

A tree you can drive through, I know I'm not the only one who thinks thats crazy.

10. Take a Segway tour around a big city.

Yes, thats right you know we all laugh at those people but secretly really want to hop on one.

11. Go indoor sky diving.

For those too scared to jump out of a plane try out a wind tunnel!

12. Sleep in an eno.

Preferably in some national park somewhere with a couple friends.


Here are a few simple things that you can still cross off your bucket list with the two months of summer you have left. Everyone's bucket list is different so yours may differ but if you're looking for some ideas then you're welcome to a few of mine for this summer.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
