7 Ultimate Bucket List Items

Just about everyone has a bucket list. It's full of goals and ideas that you aspire to achieve during your life. I know I have a bucket list and have completed some of the items on it so far. My list is full of goals and I am working towards some of them right now. Making a bucket list is a great way to outline some of your vacations, activities and risks that you want to take throughout your life. Here are some of my bucket list items that might inspire you to make yours:

1. Travel Europe (more!)

I was lucky enough to study abroad in Dublin, Ireland during my freshman year of college and got to see places I never thought I'd see. I got to travel to England, Poland, Spain and all throughout Ireland, but now I want to see more of Europe! Hopefully I get to go back and see more famous sites and the beautiful scenery that the continent has to offer!

2. Road Trip Across America

I've been lucky to see some countries throughout the world, but I feel like I haven't explored the United States. I would love to take a road trip across the country and make stops along the way to see everything America has to offer.

3. Go on a Service Trip to Africa

I got to go on a service trip to Jinotega, Nicaragua where I was able to teach children English. This trip inspired me to want to help more of the world. Now I want to travel to Africa and help underprivileged populations there!

4. Ride in a Helicopter

Riding in a helicopter is an experience that everyone should take part in! Riding in a helicopter over the Grand Canyon is near the top of my bucket list and would be an amazing experience.

5. See the Ellen Show Live

I'm a huge fan of "The Ellen Show" and would love to see her show be taped live. She is definitely someone that I really want to meet.

6. Run the Boston Marathon

The Boston Marathon is one of the most famous races in the world. I have always loved running and it's my dream to cross the Boston Marathon finish line someday.

7. Become a Nurse

My ultimate goal - of course - is to complete nursing school and become a nurse! I can't wait to be able to treat patients and try to make their days better when they are not feeling well.

Good luck!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
