21 More Things I Hope To Do

Oh, the places we'll go, the people we'll see and the things we would do.

21 More Things I Hope To Do
Alex Strohl

As days fly by, holidays fast approaching, the end of the year is very near. I reflect back on my article discussing 33 Things I Hope To Do in my lifetime. The new year is less than two months away and this list keeps on growing. I do not have a time constraint on these; a list of things to do before you "die" is kind of off-putting, isn't it? So I say I aspire to do these things, and I hope I get the chance, or I hope I make the opportunity for myself to accomplish these little experiences and feelings in my lifetime. I already mentioned thirty-three so I am going to add just a few more.

Well, let's not wait too long, let's get started!


1. Visit a Paris bakery, have a coffee and eat a croissant, listen to the sounds of the city. Enjoy the view.

2. Travel with limited supplies and find my way. May be hard but it is not impossible.

3. Go to a SuperBowl, scream and cheer no matter who the team it is.

4. Be an extra in a movie, have some screen time, doesn't matter if I am in the corner or in a .2 second scene. I WANT TO BE THERE.

5. Go to a masquerade ball, mask, an incredible dress, the whole sha-bang.

6. Go to a Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon taping, that will probably be the best day of my life.

7. Walk the Great Wall of China.

8. Bungee Jump. More than once. Adrenaline junkie what can I say?

9. Go on a road trip, East to West of the good ole United States.

10. Helicopter ride over New York. Maybe at night, that would be breathtaking.

11. Have a piece of art in a gallery, inspired by me.

12. Lead a self-love movement. Inspire teenagers.

13. Adopt a dog, or seven.

14. Get a PhD. Hard work but SO worth it.

15. Trek through a rainforest, experience exotic wildlife and all of its wonders.

16. See the pyramids in Egypt.

17. Stay in a haunted place for a number of hours. Don't even ask me why I put this I just know I want to do it.

18. Attend a ballet show.

19. Go to Bali, learn a lesson from the people that live there. Learn about life, and the small things about theirs.

20. Experience zero gravity.

21. Be who I want to be, even if that means traveling the world to figure it out.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies.
