Bucket List ♥

Life can be very short. Shut your eyes for a second and time flies by and before you know it, a lot has changed. A lot can happen.

They say that right before you die, your whole life plays in front of your eyes and all you remember are the good times. When you’re just about to die, you don’t think about how mean your friend was to you or how the boy you loved, loved someone else instead. You don’t remember how hurt and disappointed you were or how unlucky you felt in general. You remember the good times. You remember how much you were loved by those who actually matter. You remember the laughs, the hugs, the smiles and the true joy you felt with them. So then why do we waste so much of our time complaining about our life instead of actually going out there and making some good memories.

Everyone should have a bucket list. Things that they want to do before they die. Make a list of all things you have wanted to try but have never really got around to doing it. I have my own bucket list which I made recently, and I’m definitely planning on crossing out a few things in the coming years. Just a few of the things on my list:

1.     Learn fluent French and Italian. I love the French and the Italian culture. 

2.     Take a course on Renaissance art in Italy and spend the summer learning how to paint in Paris.

3.     Watch every Audrey Hepburn, Greta Garbo and Grace Kelly movie there is.

4.     Go camping somewhere in Europe and sleep under the stars, after making the bonfire in the traditional way of course.

5.     Go on the scariest rollercoaster there is, 3 times in a row and get over my fear once and for all!

6.     Buy a house in Tuscany and spend a whole summer there writing a book or something =) 

7.     Spend an entire week in Somalia with the homeless and undernourished kids.

8.     Learn how to Tango in Buenos Aires.

9.     Write a really long message, put it in a bottle and the throw it in the sea.

10.          Swim with a dolphin.

11.         Spend a whole day eating Macaroons, cupcakes and doughnuts without feeling guilty!

12.       Go backpacking across Europe.

13.       Take a trip to Rome alone and learn everything about the history and the architecture it is so famous for.

14.      Be a part of Tomatina in Spain!!

15.     Dance in the middle of a crowded street. I would prefer it raining at the time! J

16.     Buy 50 Christian Louboutin shoes at once and then just stare at them and model in them the whole day!

17.   Take part in a marathon and actually complete it!

18.    Learn how to Ski in Aspen!

19.    Climb the Mount Everest  :-P

20.    Go Skydiving!!!

There are like a million other things I can put in this list. There is so much I want to do before I die! So go make memories instead of whining and complaining and wasting your life over things that you eventually won’t even remember anyway. Life is too short so make the most of it!
