Bucket List: Nicholas Wilson

 

Honestly, I have lived a sheltered life. I’ve never left Arkansas, only visited a few cities, and until recently, rarely got out of the house. Therefore, my bucket list should be rather large, but I’ll keep it nice and practical 

My first goal is to get out of the state, anything will do, even just going to the Texas side of Texarkana. In 10th grade a friend and I, while looking at a map in class, discovered the town of Circle, Montana. We thought it the funniest name for a town. Since then, it’s been a pipe dream of mine to visit it 

More practically speaking, I hope to get a good job with good career opportunities. It needs to come fruition because I believe I’ll have a new family soon after college and I know I need to do all I can to support my them. I hope to marry the person I’m currently dating and spend the rest of my life with her. Hopefully, we’ll create a healthy and happy family, one that’s more financially stable than both our parents’ were.  

On the entertainment side of things are playing airsoft, going to amusement parks, seeing national monuments, traveling the world, and visiting museums as well as attractions would all be wonderful. However, these desires are by no means my priority and are something I’ll sacrifice for more important goals
