Lately, Adam and I have been talking about places we really want to visit and how it will be easier to see these places with an actual "grown up" income [as I like to call it (:]. This made me think about the bucket list I started in high school & how I wanted to start crossing things off it now that I have actual free time. Not like the free time where I don't have an exam that week and I don't have to spend every free hour studying, but actual free time.... Where I don't really have anything to do. The last few months of school I would continually day dream when the time would come when I had nothing to do. Well the time has come where I have all of this time and I haven't done much with it. I think I am still kind of getting over the fact that i'm not a student anymore and I don't have to buy school supplies in August. A few days ago I decided I needed something to inspire me... I felt like I have been in a funk lately and going through and adding things to my bucket list has helped me decide some things I want to accomplish over the next little while!

What things do you want to mark off of your bucket list? Or what things have you marked off of your list recently?

That's funny, I thought I'd see mud wrestling on the list.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great list and accomplishments! Come see me and I'll teach you how to use chopsticks ;)
ReplyDeleteBTW I think you take great pictures. I loved seeing some of the pictures from your trip!
I can teach you how to play the Treble notes on the piano..but I can definitely teach you how to play the violin. That's close enough to a guitar right? :p
ReplyDeleteThe tings you have crossed off are amazing accomplishments!
ReplyDeleteMy bucket list is kind of lame now...does, "get a nap in the afternoon" count as an accomplishment? ;)
