Not Your Typical Bucket List

Screw getting kissed under a mistletoe, I wanna save a life.

Not Your Typical Bucket List
zincmoon.com

"Swim with dolphins, travel the world, get a tattoo, go to a rave, go bungee jumping, sleep under the stars, be kissed under the Eiffel Tower..." All of these activities sound absolutely amazing and I'd love to do each and every single on of them, however these are items that can be found on most people's bucket lists. Again, I want to do all of these things and there's no shame in having any of them on your bucket list. However, I wanted to go a little deeper into my bucket list, look past the clichés and set goals to do things that most of us often overlook. Here's my "not-so-typical" bucket list.

1. Cut an important ribbon with a really big pair of scissors.

2. Win a raffle.

3. Treat the person behind me in line for coffee.

4. Go to the movies by myself.

5. Get a Pen Pal from another country.

6. Domesticate a sick or abandoned wild animal.

7. Adopt a child.

8. Become a foster parent.


9. Be financially comfortable on my own and not have to rely on anyone to provide for me.

10. Witness a miracle.

11. Pay it forward.

12. Get a minion (yes, the little yellow things) from every country.


13. Save a life.

14. Deliver a baby (I'm a health science major, that shit interests me) and witness the miracle of life.

As you can see my bucket list is still in the making...if you have any awesome ideas for me to add, please comment below! Hope you can even add some of these to your own "not-so-typical" bucket list! :)

Being single can be great and awful at the same time. Yeah, it's awesome to have time to yourself to figure out who you are and make your own decisions.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.
