Bucket List: Alexis Goodwin

 

To be asked to write an exhaustive list of everything I want to do before I am laid to rest is an impossible task. There are many things I would like to do in my lifetime including reading all the books in the world. Clearly, that is impossible but it is a cool idea. However, I realize that unrealistic aspirations are not the point of this essay. For that reason the goals that follow are those that I most likely will complete during my lifetime. 

I would like to graduate college with a 4.0 GPA. After getting my bachelor’s degree, I would like to return and earn my master’s degree. After both of those, I want to complete a doctoral program to get a doctoral degree. Because I am pursuing a degree in education one of my goals pertains to teaching. I want to change students’ lives, but more specifically, I want to be a kid’s favorite teacher. Other than the few professional goals I have mentioned I aspire to travel the world. I would like to visit every continent on the planet, and also every state in the United States. There are many more things I would like to do, but hopefully I will live a long enough life to at least complete all of the things mentioned above because they are the most important to me.
