Pole Dancing And 7 Other Things I Want To Try Before I Die

Life's too short to not be outrageous.

In This Article:

Humans are creatures of habit, which means that we tend to be boring sometimes. So of course it's no wonder that after a few months of going through the same old routine over and over, we tend to get restless and moody. I often fall prey to the mundaneness of life, and often find myself falling in a rut that's difficult to climb out of. After scrolling through a few "Ultimate Bucket Lists" online, I decided to write my own lists of things I want to try before I die, some of which I'm ready to try right now!

Spontaneous road trips

Nothing's better than piling into a car with all your friends and heading off to nowhere with a great playlist playing on the radio. Summer 2020 plans?

Skinny dip

Maybe this one would be best in the dead of night with no one around to bear witness.

Get a tattoo

Sorry, mom, don't get mad at me when I get a tarot tattoo real soon.

Write a book

Writing and publishing a book has been my dream ever since I was four and read my first book. Maybe one day I'll sit down and actually finish something.

Pole dance

I already found a Groupon for pole dancing classes, and my core is about to be strong and toned af.

Participate in a poetry slam

I'm not much of a poetry girl, but the poets who participate in these seem so passionate that it wouldn't hurt to give it a whirl, right?

Sky dive

I might pass out while I'm mid-air looking at my neighborhood with a bird's eye view, but it would still be an unforgettable experience.

This is definitely the most tame item on the list, but it's definitely a must. Beholding nature's beauty is free and something we should all appreciate at some point or another.

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.
