Witham, Lindsey: Bucket List

            Before I die, I would love to do some crazy things. I have never made a bucket list, or even written down the things I want to do before I “kick the bucket.” My life has been full of ups and downs and I am only 18! That is why I want to live my life to the fullest and do some rather odd, yet wild activities. Some of these activities are riding a bull, skydiving, swimming with sharks, cliff jumping, and riding with a Blue Angel.

            Riding a bull has always been a dream of mine because I love rodeos. I want to experience what it is like to be on top of such a powerful beast that wants to throw me off. Skydiving is also one thing that I want to do before I die. I want to feel like I am flying and see the earth below me coming at a racing speed. Have you ever wanted to feel like you are flying? Who doesn’t?

            I would also love to go swimming with sharks. They are fascinating and scary creatures. Their teeth and body size are intimidating and I want to be face to face with one. Cliff jumping is a sport in some places, but for me it would be a once in a lifetime opportunity. Last but not least, I want to ride with a Blue Angel. They are a special air team of jets in California. I have a dream of flying so fast that I break the sound barrier! Well, with a pilot flying me of course.

            This small list from my bucket list might sound too wild and crazy, but it is my dream to do these activities before I die. I am an outgoing person and I feel that nothing can get in my way. I follow the quote, “Live life to the fullest.” It is by someone unknown to me, though. Life is amazing, and everyone should cherish it to the utmost extent!
