Bucket List: Lilly Henry

There are several things I want to accomplish within my lifetime. Firstly, I want to be married to my high school sweetheart, Rowan. This may come after finishing another item on my list, but this is the most important task. 

Second in importance is is to get an apprenticeship and work as a tattoo artist. I want to work my way up from doing walk-in’s to eventually only doing private clients. Before the end of college, I plan on growing my hair out and getting a jellyfish cut. I also want to get at least one new piercing and maybe one tattoo (though I’m not sure what I would want to get). 

I have more long-term goals for my life. I do not want biological children, but I do want there to be in a place in my life where I can foster children and maybe adopt. I want to be able to give a kid or teenager a stable and caring environment to learn. 

I'd like to eventually fix and renovate my childhood home. There are a few leaks and holes in the ceiling, and the wood paneling needs to be updated. But right now I have little desire to move and all the intention of fixing up the home that I, as a teenager, grew up in.  

I also want to fix the garden, and perhaps plant a tree when Rowan and I get married. I want to have a nice yard again, and maybe fix the storm shelter. 

Rowan is Jewish, so before we get married before the temple, I will have to convert to Judaism, something that could take years. I also want to travel with his family to New Orleans (their hometown) and Japan (their ancestral home). Though my bucket list may seem simple, I take pride in my goals.
