before I die

well I'm not sure exactly what it is lately, but I feel a little bit like nothing has been happening lately. Personally, I'm going to blame this on my current location and lack of resources but nonetheless I've actually been wanting to write these things down for a long time so the time has come. Yes that's right, I have FINALLY recorded my bucket list. I feel like there's definitely some things missing, but I guess it's alright for now, I'll just add them as they come. Before I wrote them here, I would just like to point out that none of these are church (or "relationship") related. Those are more personal and kept off the internet...I find it best that way. :) haha I realize that some of them might need explanations, so I will try to provide them to the best of my ability, however if anyone would like to know more about anything feel free to let me know. So anyway, without further ado, here it is:

1. ride in a hot air balloon

2. see a movie at a drive-in theatre (preferably a classic--Breakfast at Tiffany's, or something of that accord)

3. vacation to:

-Bora Bora (I watched a travel show on it back in elementary school and fell in love)

-Australia (especially ever since my brother went there on his mission and sent me that picture of him holding that koala--I need that.)

-Greece (Mamma Mia did it to me)

4. take at least one picture every day for a year (I am obsessed with taking pictures, but never seem to get to do it enough. I'm most likely saving this one for when I'm married//have children.)

5. roadtrip along the entire west coast

6. go somewhere and watch the sun rise and set on the same day (I say "go somewhere" because I don't just want to look out the window of my bedroom for this--the beach or a mountain would be perfect.)

7. dance with someone in the rain (I don't mean crazy random dancing with friends, I'm talking romantic with someone I love...yes I am a hopeless romantic.)

8. own something from Tiffany's :) (yeah, that's my expensive taste side getting the best of me.)

9. own a home and decorate every room beautifully just exactly how I want it

10. have a masquerade party (blame it on Phantom of the Opera.)

11. get a picture with Ryan Dungey (I already have them will all my other favorites--he's the last piece of the puzzle.)

12. make a cake for every birthday of my children's (I've always been obsessed with cooking and baking, but recently I've been on a cake kick.)

13. spend a whole day getting pampered--hair, nails, massage... (just one day of total relaxation.)

14. swim with dolphins

15. take dance lessons that I haven't already done (specifically ballroom or salsa)

16. write a book

17. go underneath a waterfall (...behind? not sure exactly what they do, but I've seen it. haha)

18. plant a garden (both fruit and vegetables, and flowers)

19. drie a convertible with the top down (on PCH?)

20. go to the top of the Statue of Liberty

21. see a broadway play in New York

22. walk the Brooklyn Bridge (because yes, I've been to New York, and did not do any of these 3 things.)

23. take a zumba class (they look amazing)

24. make an entire Thanksgiving dinner

25. make quilts for each of my children (baby and before they leave for college?)

26. go on a cruise

27. attend all 3 rounds of Supercross at Anaheim (initially I wanted this one to be attend all rounds of Supercross during one season but I pretty much realized that this was just crazy unrealistic :) lol)

So while I was typing this from my list, I did notice that I don't know how to count. I went straight from #22 to #24. Not to mention, when signing my name on a receipt the other day, I spelled that wrong too. I forgot the 'e' in my own name. College has clearly made me dumber. But now that I feel a little somewhat accomplished, I believe it is off to bed for me.
