Parrott, Tanner: Bucket List

-->
A bucket list is an opportunity to list things that I would want to do one day. It is a highlight reel for the future that I can plan today. I have many dreams I wish would one day come true. Among these are traveling to foreign places, mastering new sports, and living out my childhood dreams.
I have always dreamed about traveling around Europe, Germany in particular. I want to experience multiple cultures outside of American society. When I was younger my family lived in Germany and I loved everything about it. The people I met, the food I ate and the places I saw while there all came together to create lasting memories that I would love to reexperience.
An item that I can cross off my list much closer to home is bowling a perfect score. I bowl a few times a year and always have a good time. At the same time I watch people in other lanes and I am blown away by their level of skill. The ability to put spin on the ball is an amazing skill that if mastered would give me an incredible sense of accomplishment. It is also a sport that I will be able to play with friends and family for a long time to come.
One day I want to fly an airplane. When I was younger my dream job was becoming a pilot. Ever since I was little I have been fascinated with airplanes and the science behind how they work. Even flying as a passenger made my passion grow more and more. I now want to get my pilot’s license and fly at my local airport for fun.
