My Travel Bucket List
Travel Channel

Ever since I can remember I have always had a love for adventure. I remember being a kid and my brother and I would explore the woods behind our house. As I grew up, this love for adventure turned into a passion for travel. If I had unlimited money and a lot of free time, I would travel the world, see new places, and immerse myself in different cultures. These following ten places on my so-called "bucket list" are the top ten places I'd definitely like to visit sometime in my life.


#10 - Canada

Despite living in upstate New York and being less than three hours from the Canadian border, I have actually never had the chance to visit our neighboring country. My "must-sees" include the busy metropolitan areas like Montreal and Toronto, as well as some other sights like Old Quebec and Jasper National Park.


#9 - Prague

While I don't know much about this city, it's impressive architecture and stunning views makes the city someplace that I'd like to experience. My "must-sees" include the Old Town Square, the Charles Bridge, and the Dancing House.


#8 - Greece

I think what has initially drawn me to Greece was all the Greek stories I read in freshmen year of high school. My "must-sees" include the typical tourist sights such as the Parthenon and the Acropolis of Athens, as well as lesser known ones like the Great Theatre of Epidaurus and the cliff-side city of Santorini.


#7 - South Africa

I never really knew much about South Africa until I met a girl named Haidee on a Leadership Summit in Boston, MA. Haidee was in my smaller group for the week and she was from Cape Town, South Africa. After hearing about the culture, I decided that I'd have to visit. My "must-sees" include The Cape of Good Hope, the city of Cape Town, and Kruger National Park.


#6 - Spain

I learned a lot about Spain and its' culture after taking Spanish classes from pre-school until eleventh grade. My "must-sees" include bustling areas like Madrid and Barcelona, as well as other sights such as Costa Brava and Cuenca.


#5 - Great Britain

In my opinion, Great Britain is a popular tourist destination for anyone visiting Europe. Both the high school I attended and the college I currently attend have "study abroad" trips to the capital of Great Britain, London. My "must-sees" include Big Ben, Stonehenge, and Westminster Abbey.


#4 - Italy

Another popular tourist destination is Italy, a country with a rich culture and great food. My "must-sees" are pretty much over the place, including Venice, Rome, Naples, Pisa, and the Amalfi Coast.


#3 - All 50 US States

One thing I would love to do is pack up my car and take a road trip around the country with some friends. Having never left the East Coast of the US, there is so much more to the country that I would love to explore. My "must-sees" include the French Quarter, the Grand Canyon, Alcatraz, and Zion National Park.


#2 - Australia

Ever since I was a kid and I had Scooby Doo! and the Legend of the Vampire on repeat, I've always wanted to travel to Australia myself. My "must-sees" include the Great Barrier Reef, Uluru, the Sydney Opera House, and Bondi Beach.


#1 - Ireland

The place I want to travel to the most would have to be Ireland. My mother's side of the family has Irish heritage, and I've always thought it would be interesting to see my roots and where my family originated from. My "must-sees" include the Cliffs of Moher, Blarney Castle, and Dublin.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
