My Bucket List!

Hello and welcome to my bucket list! However, you won’t be finding ‘bungee jump’ or ‘swim with sharks’, but instead many more homely things that mean more to me specifically but may in fact inspire you to do some of these things yourself!


I think it's great to have a bucket list because it's always good to have a goal and, it's really satisfying to tick things off once you've done them!


This is also a great way to get to know a little bit more about me and my interests! I’m going to talk about a few key things in detail, but find my full bucket list at the bottom. Enjoy! ...


1. Travel - I know this is probably on everyone's bucket list but travelling doesn't come naturally to me. I very much like staying in my comfort zone, and the idea of going to another country that I haven't been to before, makes me incredibly nervous. However, of course there are some parts of the world that everyone must see at least once in their life and for me that includes: Paris, New York, Vegas and maybe Australia (if I get over my fear of spiders and sharks...). It's important to note that obviously I enjoy going to various countries when on holiday (when in the safe walls of an all-inclusive hotel), but there's something hugely scary about going on a touristy holiday somewhere new. BUT, next year I plan to really push myself and go to Italy with my boyfriend to explore places such as Rome, Naples and the Amalfi coast.


2. Shows and Events - I am very into music, in particular, artists such as Royal Blood, Fall Out Boy and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I'd love to see all these bands live, preferably standing, but beggars can't be choosers! I realise these bands are exclusively rock bands, but I am genuinely into such a wide variety of music. For example, as well as rock I also love 80's and 90's music as well as SOME current pop. Following on from this, I'd love to go to Reading Festival which is a UK based 'Rock' festival which hosts a variety of great acts each year, but it's also a great weekend away to spend with friends.


3. Career - As you know I am currently studying law, but my dream is to become a rich and successful lawyer/ mediator. I'm only in my second year of uni, but I really would like to have a career in family law, I’m not sure why, but I just get a good feeling about it and I enjoy it. This particular item on my bucket list kind of facilitates other items on my bucket list such as having enough money to own my own house. It's so hard these days for young people to get onto the property ladder and I can't imagine having to rent a property for the rest of my life. It's worrying!


These are the main big goals for me to achieve in my life, but I also have a lot of smaller, homely goals that you will soon see when you scroll down. A lot of them are quite silly, (eg: to like wine...), but it’s important to not just have big and serious life goals, but also to have smaller ones, which are not only easier to achieve, but more fun to achieve too!
