My Ultimate Life Bucket List

"In the end we only regret the chances we didn't take."

My Ultimate Life Bucket List
Huffington Post

Everyone has people, things, or places to see before they die. There are so many incredible places outside of your world that are out there for us to explore and see. Everyone has their own interests and true loves, and that's what makes the world such an amazing place. The world has something for all the different interests we as people have.

"In the end we only regret the chances we didn't take."

Something on your bucket list might be outrageously expensive, or seem unreasonable. But the truth of it is, is that you can make it happen if you want it. You don't want to regret not doing it when you had the opportunity. You never know what is going to happen, nothing in life is promised, and that's why you have to take every chance while you have it. So, I'm going to tell you things on my bucket list and about the things and places I strive to see and achieve before my life ends.

1. Northern Lights

The Northern Lights, or also known as the Aurora Borealis, is a beautiful phenomenon that only happens in certain places of the world. This beautiful picture is one I want to experience once in my life. I want to see the angelic colors dance across the night sky, fading in and out with shades of blues and greens.

2. See a show on Broadway

You can see musicals anywhere you want, but you can't experience a musical the way you can at a Broadway musical. This amazing structure has been putting on musicals for over a hundred years now. Iconic actresses, musicians, and musicals have made their debut there. This is where the best of the best go and there is no other place that puts on a musical like Broadway does.

3. Marry the love of my life

Some people may argue that this shouldn't be a bucket list item. I believe it is, because people search and search for someone to marry and spend the rest of their lives with, and come up short. I want to marry someone I can share my life, interests, and world with. Love is never easy and to find someone who loves you as you love them is special, and some people will never find it.

4. Go skydiving

This is an adventure some would never attempt. To me, the thought of being that high up and looking down on the world below me, puts a rush of adrenaline through me. To fall and feel like you're flying, and getting to see the earth in a whole new perspective, with the electricity surging through me, is the ultimate thrill I want to feel before I die.

5. Go to Coachella

Coachella is one of the biggest music festivals in the United States. Anybody who is anybody performs there. It is an outdoor event that goes through the entire month of April. You get to see all your favorite artists perform together and sing your favorite songs. And you get to experience what you feel listening to their songs in person with your favorite people in the world.

6. Write a book

I don't have a dream to be a big time author, or make tons of money off a book, but I have a dream to inspire people with my words. Whether its 15 pages or 500 pages, I want people to read it and put it down knowing they can go out an conquer any obstacle they face in front of them. I want to touch the lives of those who choose to read what I have to say.

7. See the world cup

I don't care where it is in the world, I want to, at least one time, see the World Cup. I want to see the best players, and teams, in the world competing for the ultimate title. This is the tournament where you see the most passion, and the most perseverance. You get to see heartbreak, and happiness, and dedication from fans, and players who play for the pride of their country.

8. Ride the world's fastest roller coaster

I have a knack for thrill that no one can stop. I've been to a few amusement parks in my life, and I have loved every minute. But none of these roller coasters have anything on the fastest roller coaster in the world. I want to put my love for roller coasters to the test. The Formula Rossa is the worlds fastest roller coaster clocking in at speeds of 149 miles per hour. I want to go on the ride of a lifetime.

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.
