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

Life's too short to not be outrageous.

Pole Dancing

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?

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.

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.

Watch the sun rise on the beach

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.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
