Lately, I've been thinking a lot about summer. Not only does summer mean warmer weather (which implies summer dresses, tank tops, flip flops, and pastel colored shorts), but it also means the first time that I will be reunited with all my friends from home. CRAZY. It has been a ridiculously fun and exciting year. I'm sure everyone has grown and learned a lot this year and it will be fun to see everyone again! However, summer also means a 3 month hiatus from my college family. It will be an extremely difficult transition...but I think we're poised for a great summer.
So now onto the bulk of the post. Summer.
One of my favorite things about summer is making a bucket list. A list of things that you want to accomplish before the summer is over and reality sets in again. In past years, my bucket list has included traveling to a new state, going to a specific beach, having a conversation without talking, Chinese fire drill or eating ice cream a certain amount of times a day.
This year, I want to be a little more unique.
1. Reenact Ferris Bueller's day off. (Includes: Going to the top of the John Hancock/Sears Tower, eating at a fancy restaurant, participating in a parade, driving a porsche.)
2. BUY A NICE PAIR OF SUNGLASSES. (I may or may not have lost my previous pair #responsibility)
3. Reach 1500 followers on twitter...
4. Do a triathalon, running or rollerblading, depending on how much I actually train.
5. Eat a whole bucket of Sweet Martha's Cookies at the Minnesota State Fair.
6. Learn Spanish.
7. Visit a different country (Canada counts).
8. Watch a movie under the stars (Drive-in, lake movies?)
9. Laugh so hard I pee my pants.
10. Finish LOST season one and two (Shout-out to Ali!!)
11. Find Hogwarts
12. Have a long conversation on my front porch without saying anything. And come away completely satisfied.
13. Finish a game of monopoly (Actually exceptionally difficult....I think we tried this a few times last summer).
14. Meet someone famous.
15. Go to at least 5 of my sisters softball games (Challenge.)
16. Finish the Hunger Games series
17. Go on a midnight stroll
18. Get on a first name basis with the cashier at Freeziac
19. Take a nap on the beach
20. Become a certified zumba instructor
