Because everyone should have their own bucket list

20 Things I Want To Do Before I Die
google

1) Go to Ireland

Most of my family is Irish, so it's only natural that this is the first thing on my list.

2) Fall in love and never fall out

I know this might sound dumb, but I've witnessed couples who have been head over heels in the beginning of their relationship, but then after a while, they start hating the little things they used to find cute about one another. Or, they just get bored.

I never want that to happen with me. I want to be able to wake up every day and feel like my relationship is still in the "honeymoon" stage.

3) Live on the beach

The beach is my serenity, so being able to live on or near one would be awesome.

4) Be so in love with my job that it doesn’t feel like work

I've been told often that "If you love your job, you'll never work a day in your life," or "Die doing what you love," and that's what I want. I refuse to ever hate my job or let it make me bitter.

5) Go skydiving

Adrenaline junky.

6) Go to Devils Pool in Victoria Falls

This pool seems so cool. It's an "edge of the world" type of pool, over a cliff where the current is so strong that it helps you not fall off the cliff.

7) Be the person my brother and sisters think I am

They look up to me, and I never want to disappoint them.

8) Buy a house

I want to buy a house mainly because I want to decorate with my own style: a.k.a A LOT of bean bag chairs and comfy things.

9) Learn sign language

It's different and so beyond cool.

10) Road trip the country with my friends

Because who doesn't want to do this?

11) Get married

And never get divorced. I want to be married to one person forever.

12) Learn how to play an instrument really well

Music is my favorite thing in the world, and I think it would make it more awesome if I could play an instrument.

13) Grow a few inches

Because I'm 5'1 1/4, and it really cramps my style sometimes.

14) Learn to dance... well

Because I do a lot of mom dances, like the side step and the sprinkler.

15) Be healthy

I want to be one of those people who loves to work out and drink protein shakes.

16) Try out for The Voice

I would probably cry and pee my pants, but a girl can dream!

17) Climb a mountain

Just to be able to say, "I climbed a mountain."

18) Swim in the Blue Lagoon in Iceland

I love water, and this seems awesome.

19) Go parasailing

Because I love water, and this seems awesome as well.

20) Go to the Grutas de Tolantongo in Mexico

SO PRETTY!

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
