Top 5 Things To Do Before I Die

Because you only live once, you should strive for greatness to your own desires.

As many people do, I have at least five things I must accomplish in my life time before my hour glass runs out of sand. I believe we are all placed on Earth to fulfill a purpose, big or small. We all have a destiny to fulfill, a potential to reach, and an impact to make, on one or one million people.

I want to live a good life, filled with memories, moments, tears of joy and sadness, and successes. Don't we all?

1. One thing I must do before I die is have my dream job. I have always aspired to love my job, because if you love what you're doing, you will never work a day in your life. Whether your dream job is a teacher, an artist, a mechanic, in the military, or president of the United States, shoot for the stars, and achieve that job.

2. Fall in love and get married, once. Everyone dreams about their happily ever after. My only goal towards that in life is to fall in love, and stay in love. Stay with the person I married, work through issues, stay together and be happy. I don't want divorce in my future. If something is broke, I want to fix it. I don't want to endure the heart ache and pain that comes along with it, especially if children are involved.

3. Achieve the biggest goal I have set for myself. We all set dreams and aspirations set out for ourselves. Whether we made them at age 5 for 50, we all have on thing at the top of that bucket list we are always itching to cross off. I will make it my mission to cross off the number one spot on my bucket list.

4. Travel to different places, see different things. Often, we place ourselves in bubbles and do not pass through the outer circle of our comfort zone. Great things happen outside of our comfort zones whether we think so or not. By allowing ourselves to see what the world has in store for us beyond what we are used to, we will grow as people spiritually and culturally.

5. Educate myself in the here and now. I don't want to be one of those old folks who shun anything that has happened or has been invented in the last four decades. I want to keep up with the changing times, keep my mind sharp, and be open to the new ways. Although, I might not always like the new ways, changes, and new inventions, I will not be stubborn and act as if I live on a different planet.

Fulfill all your dreams to the best of your abilities!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
