Life's Too Short: Make a Bucket List

Life is full of potential to explore amazing opportunities, view different perspectives, and enjoy precious, priceless moments. I happen to believe this. I also happen to understand that life is too short to be wasted.

There are so many things I want to do, so many places I want to go, and so many different skills I want to acquire; so I decided when I was nineteen to make a bucket list and actively work on it as I live life. Here is my own personal list, which, consists of items I've completed, items that are in progress, and items that I plan to check off in the future. Those marked with an "X" are completed items, those marked with "IP" are in progress and those not marked at all are those I plan to eventually work on. So, without further ado: My Bucket list.


1) Work with inner city children X
2) Get married to the love of my life X
3) Have children X
4) Travel to England X
5) Go zip-lining X
6) Visit Disney World X
7) Stay on Disney property X
8) Learn how to coupon X
9) Run a 5k X
10) Write a book (Woot!) X
11) Learn Spanish fluently
12) Go on a Disney Cruise

Well, there you have it ladies and gentlemen: My Bucket List! If you haven't already compiled your own list, I encourage you to do so.

As I stated earlier, life is too short to waste and before we know it, it will be gone.

Live life to its fullest and rock every part of it. Don't wait until it's too late, we are not guaranteed tomorrow.

Make your mark on the world and start working on it now. :)

So, now that you've read what's currently written on my list, share yours with us! Is there anything on mine that you've always wanted to do? Tell us in the comments below. :)
