Bucket List: Eduardo Trejo

 

Bucket lists often express whether someone is “alive” or not. Although most people would fill their lists with outrageous stunts such skydiving or surfing, those are not for me. I have other options and small achievements I would want to accomplish in life.  

One is to travel to another country beyond Mexico or Canada. I am talking about traveling to places like the United Kingdom, France, or Japan. I would like to learn more about these countries, explore them, and take in their beauty. I would consider earning a college degree there, or even studying for work as it took place in one of those countries, or as a vacation. I would consider that an accomplishment.  

Another thing on my bucket list is to host a gaming tournament. While it may sound odd for an honors student to have such goal hosting one could be one of the neatest things to do in college or elsewhere. Hosting a gaming tournament can be one of the most fun experiences to do for a change. I have always participated in tournaments, but never ran one of my own. This accomplishment can change my perspective on video games as a whole.  

Also, on my bucket list is to create an original piece of art. By that I mean a song, music video, short movie (around thirty minutes), or a research discovery made outside of a required course or assignment. This item could one that to look back on later and realize that I created something unique. Many people today look up to those who create things; I’d like to be a person they admire.  

The final item on my bucket list is to graduate college. I want to make sure I have the skills and experience necessary to survive in today’s economy.
