21 More Things I Hope To Do

Oh, the places we'll go, the people we'll see and the things we would do.

21 More Things I Hope To Do
Alex Strohl

As days fly by, holidays fast approaching, the end of the year is very near. I reflect back on my article discussing 33 Things I Hope To Do in my lifetime. The new year is less than two months away and this list keeps on growing. I do not have a time constraint on these; a list of things to do before you "die" is kind of off-putting, isn't it? So I say I aspire to do these things, and I hope I get the chance, or I hope I make the opportunity for myself to accomplish these little experiences and feelings in my lifetime. I already mentioned thirty-three so I am going to add just a few more.

Well, let's not wait too long, let's get started!


1. Visit a Paris bakery, have a coffee and eat a croissant, listen to the sounds of the city. Enjoy the view.

2. Travel with limited supplies and find my way. May be hard but it is not impossible.

3. Go to a SuperBowl, scream and cheer no matter who the team it is.

4. Be an extra in a movie, have some screen time, doesn't matter if I am in the corner or in a .2 second scene. I WANT TO BE THERE.

5. Go to a masquerade ball, mask, an incredible dress, the whole sha-bang.

6. Go to a Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon taping, that will probably be the best day of my life.

7. Walk the Great Wall of China.

8. Bungee Jump. More than once. Adrenaline junkie what can I say?

9. Go on a road trip, East to West of the good ole United States.

10. Helicopter ride over New York. Maybe at night, that would be breathtaking.

11. Have a piece of art in a gallery, inspired by me.

12. Lead a self-love movement. Inspire teenagers.

13. Adopt a dog, or seven.

14. Get a PhD. Hard work but SO worth it.

15. Trek through a rainforest, experience exotic wildlife and all of its wonders.

16. See the pyramids in Egypt.

17. Stay in a haunted place for a number of hours. Don't even ask me why I put this I just know I want to do it.

18. Attend a ballet show.

19. Go to Bali, learn a lesson from the people that live there. Learn about life, and the small things about theirs.

20. Experience zero gravity.

21. Be who I want to be, even if that means traveling the world to figure it out.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
