Life is short and you've only got one. Do everything and anything you can.

There's a movie that came out in 2007 called The Bucket List. It was about two terminally ill men who escaped from a cancer ward with a list of things they want to do before they die. I've never actually seen the movie, but I heard what it was about when it first came out, and it's something I think about a lot, so I decided to put together my own bucket list. This list is just a few of the things that I want to do most.

1. Get my degree

2. Buy a house

3. Get married

Okay, I don't need a husband. I just want a wedding. I love weddings.

4.Travel

It's not very often that I get to go to cool places, and travelling is something I've always wanted to do. The extent of my travelling right now is back and forth between college and back home.

5. Make a difference in someone's life.

6. Go skydiving

This one is cliche as well and it's probably on a million other people's bucket lists, but it seems fun. Jumping out of a plane seems crazy, but it would be cool to do just to say you did it, right?

Life, while it seems long, is actually quite short. A list like this can be seen sad and depressing, but I see it as motivation. These are the things that I want to accomplish and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get there. This list keeps me in check and it reminds me that in order to get where I want to go, I have to work hard. I encourage you to think about what you want to do with your life and make your own list.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
