Bucket List

High School Bucket List


  • Choose the college that truly fits my personality and preferences regardless of ranking
  • Try to find passion in every single subject I study 
  • Take an interest in my childhood before it leaves me once and for all time by not being afraid to embarrass myself 
  • Spend a month in France living the culture that I truly love
This is my number one on my high school list because I absolutely love traveling not to see the sights, but to savour a local culture and way-of-life. Being the francophile that I am, what better place than France?
College Bucket List

  • Get as many internships as possible to discover the career path that suits me the best
  • Not being afraid of going outside of my comfort zone by taking classes that are not the easiest for me personally
  • Get to know my professors not only as teachers, but as friends and colleagues in the field of knowledge
  • Remain calm and confident in my abilities as a student
  • Study abroad as many times as possible
To me knowledge is not only about success in an academic environment like it is for some others, I enjoy learning for the sake of learning to enhance my world view and help me understand the perspectives of others. Professors typically share this view of learning so I figured that they would be the first place to start learning.
Life Bucket List
  • Find my soul mate who may not share the same interests but who can enlighten me on areas of life that I am not familiar with
  • Not get married until I feel absolutely comfortable with the relationship and the future with one individual
  • Be on CNN
  • Meet as many world leaders as possible 
  • Work at the State Department, USAID, or the UN
  • Travel, travel, travel!
This is probably pretty cliche, yet I believe it is the most important in life because relating back to my thoughts about knowledge, one can never learn too much and talking to others with different interests benefits everyone.
