The Bucket List from High School

In lieu of New Years Day, I thought we would take a second to look back at my High School Bucket List.

But first, a few photos from last night. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

GO COCKS!!! Since the Gamecocks played in the Chick-fil-A Bowl yesterday, we felt it was necessary to have lunch there. It is a shame we lost :( But at least we got to watch it together!!!

We went to "B Doubs" which I came to find out meant Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the game and then headed to Celebration, FL for fireworks and fun!

Now, the High School Bucket List. I love finding my goals and aspirations from my childhood or adolescents. There is something so innocent about them. I am assuming that I wrote my original Bucket List while I was in High School (notice item number 1... graduate High School). Occasionally, I pull out this ratty old piece of paper and reflect on what I wanted then and what I want now.

I had some pretty loft aspirations.

Below I typed out my High School Bucket List for you to enjoy. In a few days I will post my current Bucket List, which you may notice is slightly revised ;)
