40 Things On My Ultimate Bucket List That I'm Doing Before It's Too Late

A bucket list is something you wish to do before you die. While I don't plan on dying anytime soon... I created my ultimate bucket list. If you asked me three years ago if I would ever do this, I would say heck no. Life has hit hard for me these past years, but while it did, it makes me fearless and braver.

As of right now, there is not a thing I wouldn't do in life. I take each day as it comes, and cherish every day spent here.

I think it is important to make the most out of every day and try new things often. I encourage you all to make a bucket list and try to achieve some of the things you want to do.

My bucket list may be a little extreme or a big dream of mine, but what is life without dreaming?

​​1. Skydiving​

2. Go into a cage at the bottom of the ocean

While time is always slipping away from us, we have to find time to go out an explore now because we can't anymore, before it's too late. It is important to explore what this world has to offer.

While my list is ultimate, your list can be simple.

Everyone has something they want to do before they die, whether it is filled with travel, dreams, goals, and destinations. Life is too short to spend it in one place.

Enjoy each minute of life, and be happy with your choices. Lastly, don't wait until it is too late. Do it now.

The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods.
