Here is a small peak into what I want to accomplish in my life. A person bucket list if you will. The list is about 69 items long, at the moment. Of course it is going to change over the course of my life. But for now.. here it stands.

Below is the full bucket list. Some of it is silly and a few things I have already done, but I was so young I can barely remember. And a few I want to do again and again until I get it right. The good thing is, i have already done a few things that other people strive for. Apparently Vegas is one of those things people put on their list along with creating a website and going to Disneyland. Camping seems to be a big one too. Some of my favorite memories are of camping. I would put Vegas and Disneyland and Camping on the list but they would be crossed off and put back on the list too many times to count. This is my list if anyone is interested. Here are some things that I want to do with my life. Starting now.
So Thursday I am going to look into opening a Roth IRA and Friday I am going to AAA to get my passport started.
