My Fantastic Bucket List!

17 Things I Want To Accomplish
Non Stop Destination

1. Graduate college

This is one of the first things I want to achieve before anything else on this bucket list. Graduating college will allow me to finally settle down and do what I want. A college education will take me to different places I want to go. Imagine the possibilities and what you can do with your degree. You can do anything your heart desires. For me, it all starts with this accomplishment.

2. Get a cat


The cats in the picture above is the exact breed I want to get. I always loved the Siamese coat and blue eyes. Growing up I was never allowed to have cats. I fell in love with them from going to my friend's house. Even though they aren't always the friendliest, they are independent and great pets.

3. Get my dream job

As of now, my dream job is to work for NASA. I've always been interested in space exploration and almost anything that has to do with the subject in general. But since I am still in college, I have kept an open mind to other things. I also love children, so teaching or becoming maybe a pediatrician would be great too.

4. Write a book


I'm actually already in the process of this. I'm still in the beginning stages of it, but I am hoping it will go somewhere. I love writing, because it's very relaxing and takes my mind away from other things.

5. Become fluent in another language.


In high school, I took Spanish for two years. Even though I did learn the language, I didn't become fluent in it. To me, it takes everyday practice to become better at this. I would love to become fluent in Spanish, but I also would love to learn Russian-especially if I work for NASA one day. Companies love people who are fluent in other languages.

6. Learn to fly an airplane

This sounds crazy, but I actually want to do this. I am not sure when I will do this, but it doesn't hurt to put it on the list. Fun Fact: I actually used to be scared to fly! It's not so bad and is safer than driving. You have a higher chance passing a way in a car crash than a plane crash.

7. Get married

Here's a common one on people's bucket list!

8. Be a great parent


Like I said earlier, I love children. So of course, I want kids! I want to raise my children to love and accept everyone for who they are. Teaching your kids the right thing to do and how to be a generous person is one step to becoming a great parent in my book.

9. Live by the beach


It's always been a dream of mine to live by the beach. I hope one day I can accomplish this. I really love Florida. The beaches are absolutely beautiful!

10. Attend the San Diego Comic Con


Anyone that knows me knows that I am a big Doctor Who fan! So, why wouldn't I want to go to Comic Con?!

11.Attend the Olympics


Girls gymnastics is my favorite Olympic sport! What's yours?!

12. Attend the Superbowl

Professional football is one of my favorite sports to watch on TV. I think going to the Superbowl would be an amazing experience!

13. Go storm chasing

Call me crazy again, but I've watched people do this on TV. It seems like such a thrill! Of course it's dangerous and sometimes it can be heartbreaking when you see people's homes destroyed, but some of these guys I've seen of TV are great first responders. In the long run, they do help many people!

14. Visit all 50 states

40 left to visit! Some states I really wanna visit that I haven't yet are California, Alaska, and Hawaii.

15. Visit the United Kingdom

Like I said in #10, I'm a big Doctor Who fan! I would love to visit Cardiff, Wales. This is where most of the show is filmed and also the spinoffs like Torchwood and Class. I would love to do the Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff Bay! I'm a big fangirll! Next, I would love to see Stonehenge and visit London to see the sites. I would also like to see the Greenwich Observatory and Cambridge University, since I love astronomy. Cambridge University is home to the apple tree that inspired Issac Newton to formulate his theory of gravity.

16. Visit outer space


Another crazy idea, but this will actually become more common in our lifetime. Private companies have already started investing tourist space travel. Virgin Galactic is just one company for example. We still have a long way to go, but I do think this is possible to be accomplished during my lifetime.

17. Crossing things off my bucket list

In the end, I hope to accomplish all the 17 things I listed here in this article. Before I leave this Earth, I hope I can enjoy the many things life has to offer. From graduating college to visiting outer space, I have many bold things to accomplish! Throughout my 19 years here I already have crossed out many things off my list and look forward to crossing off many more.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.
