The Bucket List

So I have been wanting to make an official bucket list (meaning actually write it down) so I figured since I just started my blog, I'll do it now!  Now these may or may not be in any particular order...

1:  See the Boston Celtics play in Boston.

Well mainly I want to see my favorite player (Rajon Rondo) Play!

2:  Visit all of Europe


















Okay, just travel the world... including Boston (See #1), Washington DC (again), South America, India, etc. 
3:  Swim in the sea (Yes, I know it's crazy that I haven't done this yet!)

4:  Fly lanterns (Tangled anyone? :) )


5:  Write in wet cement

6:  Go on a Disney Cruise


7:  See my favorite plays on Broadway (Wicked, The Phantom of the Opera, etc.)

8:  Take a gymnastics class!

9:  See the Olympics in person, preferably the summer Olympics.

10:  Experience zero-gravity

11:  Ride a horse

12:  Learn how to surf



Well that is my list for now!  I am sure that I will add more as I think of more and more things that I want to do in my life!  Go ahead, make your own bucket list.  And do it! :)

May As Well Start Now...



Because of some inspiration from a few of the girls in my ward I have decided that I want to start a blog!  This will probably be more of a journal than anything else but feel free to read if you please! :)  

This first blog is going to be about my year so far!  So here goes...

Finishing up with my first year of college was full of ups and downs!  Filled with crazy roommates and friends, studying, and some sleep ( not necessarily in that order always), it was a wonderful experience!  


Ice skating with the roomies :)  
The wonderful "hot tub" and orange julius' ... everyone was jealous :)


And of course, living in Provo, the color fest is a must!

The Hunger Games Premiere... The odds were never in MY favor!

Hiking the Y is also a must for any BYU student!
I loved my freshman year!  I had such great roommates (who I love to death!) and amazing friends!  Thanks for making it a great year guys!

I moved back home for spring term since I worked in Springville about 2 minutes from my parents house.  Although moving in had both up-sides and down-sides I had some fun adventures there!  


Hiking!

Night time adventures with Aubrey!
And much, much more!

For summer term I decided I wanted to move back to Provo and it felt like the right thing to do!  There just happened to be a contract for sale in the same apartment I had a contract for for Fall/Winter and things were just lining up oh so nicely so I decided to do it!  And I have been having an awesome time so far!  Here are some of my adventures!


Running the Freedom Run with some awesome people!

Hiking the Y to watch the Stadium of Fire fireworks!
Redoing of the blonde streak! Plus and apartment full of skunks!


And much more too!!  Basically I have been having an awesome time and can't wait to see what else is in store for this summer!  

Another incredible thing that happened this summer too... I got into the nursing program at BYU! After 2 semesters of incredibly hard work, stress, and fears, I did it!  I feel so grateful for the help that I received for my family, friends, and especially my Savior.  It really has been an incredible experience for me and I am proud of my hard work!  I can't wait to start on this new journey and am so excited to start the program this Fall semester!  :)
