Nothing But The 15 Most Essential Summer Bucket List Items Of All Time

Life's fast, and we don't typically take the time to make bucket lists anymore. Everyone should have a lifetime bucket list, but in case you didn't here's one for starters.

From the second you step out of high school or college for the summer, or maybe even work — this bucket list starts.

1. Go somewhere you've never been before

First and foremost, you should always go to a new place every summer. Whether it's a town an hour away or a new country. New experiences are everything.

2. Try out new restaurants

Too many people dislike change, meaning people don't try new things... trying a new place to eat could make all the difference to you and to the restaurant! You'll never know until you try it!

3. Lay in the bed of a truck with a blanket and look up at the stars

If you haven't done this yet... git 'er done.

4. Go to a waterpark

At least once.

5. Go hiking

Take some pictures while you're at it.

6. Set and achieve a goal of drinking a gallon of water a day

You can't go hiking if you aren't healthy!

7. Run a 5k

Run it for fun, or for a good cause! No matter what it will be fun; even if you walk it.

8. Try a food that you've always thought you hated

You never know, your taste buds could have changed over time!

9. Go skydiving

Even if you're afraid of heights! You only live once, do it!

10. Change your hair color/hairstyle

It'll grow back! Do something fun. Cut your hair to your shoulders or dye it bleach blonde! The opportunities are endless.

11. Visit all 50 states

Or, as many as you can! Buy a map and find a creative way to mark where you have been!

12. Meet a famous person

Whether its an athlete or an artist, make an effort to meet a famous person! It may be courtside or backstage, but no matter what it would be awesome!

13. Take a cruise

A cruise is a once in a lifetime experience for some, so if you get the chance; take it!

14. Take a biking trip

Around Hawaii, if you can afford it! But it could be around somewhere as simple as your hometown.

15. Go to the beach

You, me and vitamin sea!

You could (and should) lengthen this list. Take this list, expand it and capture all of your memories! Find a couple of friends to complete this list with you, it will help you build lifelong friendships and amazing memories!

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.
