To Do Before I Die

Think of all the things you have accomplished in the last three months. Is it anything to write home about? Maybe one or two things but what do you plan to accomplish in the next month. Do you have any life altering goals? I encourage you all to take a step back and look at what you have made of your life. Are you the person you really want to be? If not make a change. Last year I decided that over the past 19 years of my life I have done nothing I really wanted to do. So, I decided to write down everything I want to do and I created a bucket list. Since that day I have written down 184 things I would like to do in my lifetime. Today I decided to share with you a couple of those things.


Some day, I would like to think that I will marry a wonderful man and when that does happen I want an absolutely unforgettable wedding. So, number 182 on my list is to have a photo booth at my wedding.


My dad is a professional photographer and ever since I was little photos have been a window into the past. I've always been obsessed with polaroids and old black and white pictures so I think it would only be fitting to have a photo booth at my wedding. I hope that all of my guests will enjoy the photo booth and leave little notes on the back of their photos for me to remember that special day. 


Number 88 on my list is to one day attend Bonnaroo. As many of you might know Bonnaroo is a music festival that comes but once a year, it's kind of like Christmas. Every June this four day music festival is held in Manchester Tennessee. Over 150 bands will be performing this year for the ten year anniversary.


This year the festival is taking on a more hip hop style by featuring artists like Eminem and Lil Wayne. This is one of the reasons I have opted out going to the festival this year. Instead I hope to see another lineup much like the one of 2007 that featured artists like John Butler Trio and The Black Keys. 

I know that those things will take time to arrange and won't happen in the next year but my last item I am going to share with you will happen within the next three months. Number 53 on my list is to work at Walt Disney World. On August 17th 2011 this will be my new home. 


Working at Walt Disney World has always been a dream of mine and I can't wait to be apart of the dream team in the fall. I applied for the Disney College Program in February this year and found out that I would be working in a restaurant in the wonderful world at Disney. I hope this change is only for the better in my life and I'm excited to say that soon I can cross this off my list.

Something I Stumbled Upon!

So to start off my blog I thought that I would share with you a new guilty pleasure I indulge in, stumbling. I'm sure you are aware of what stumbling is but for those of you who have mistaken my verb for falling up stairs here its actually a website that takes you to random and new sites. This horrible yet great invention has claimed many hours, maybe even years of my life that I will never get back. So in this post I will share with you some of my favorite links I stumbled across today!


1. My apologizes for the language.






The first video I want to share with you has a bit of foul language but assuming at we're all adults we can appreciate the humor in this video. Not only is this one of my favorite songs but I thought I would get points for "communication methods." I mean honestly how can this not brighten your day, who doesn't love witty dances telling their ex-boyfriends to go  them selves.

2. Strange USA


Being the weird kind of person I am I take great interest in hauntings and creepy things in general. So while stumbling I came across this glorious site about strange things in America. You simply choose a state then venture to whatever city you please and check out all the worthwhile places to visit. Wilmington has six noted spots!

3. Saturday Night Live


Being one of my favorite shows I encourage all of you to bone up on the ins and outs of SNL. This site includes cast list, character lists, commercials, episodes, guest appearance lists, impressions, seasons, sketches and the weekend updates. Enjoy! 

4. 90's Playlist


Okay I'm going to be honest, my other guilty pleasure besides stumbling is 90's music. Being a product of the 90's is one of my personal qualities I value a lot. Just yesterday I rocked out to the musical stylings of Hanson while doing my hair. Just something about this music puts me in a much better mood. Hope you enjoy, I'll be spending the rest of my day listening to this playlist. 

5. Obey the Game

This game is 100% pointless, but completely entertaining at the same time. The game will have a word on the screen that you need to either obey or disobey by using the arrow keys. For example the word will be walk and if the game wants you to disobey the command it will flash the word disobey so don't blink. But if it doesn't flash disobey, obey the command. A little confusing but you'll get the hang it.

6. Last one promise!

Here's a link just to brighten your day, cute animal pictures. I know what you're thinking how does stumbleupon know all my desires? It will forever be a mystery.


Anyway that's my post for the week I hope you enjoy the explorations of my stumbling as much as I did. Have a great week!
