Bucket List: Ashlyn Broughton

 

When many people think of bucket lists, they think of many extravagant activities or tasks that they want to complete before they die. When trying to craft my bucket-list, I find that I have many small tasks or goals, but I spend most of my time thinking about large goals and accomplishments that I was to achieve. Many people might see my goals as small or non-extravagant but to someone who grew up sheltered or under the circumstances that I did, these are very big things.

             

For starters, an item on my bucket-list is to graduate college, and I know that it may seem normal but I am a first generation college student. An even larger goal that I have is to obtain financially stability and be able to live comfortably; Many smaller goals go into that one goal such as obtaining a degree and finding a great job. Like many I want to get married and have children before I die, and give them everything in life that I did not have growing up. 

 

 I also have some activities that I would like to take part in before I die. I am scared of heights and terrified of getting on a plane, but eventually I want to get over my fear and try it. I would also like to make an appearance and debate about politics on CNN, MSNBC, or FOX. There are many skills that I would like to obtain before I die including learning how to skate, driving a stick-shift truck, becoming fluent in Spanish, and learning more about stocks.
