                                        The Bucket List                                                      


                                          'Every man lives - but not every many really lives' - William Ross 

 

 

At the age of twelve my friends and I used to say 'I bet when we are like 22 we will be training dolphins and living togther in an awesome flat with really hot fiances'. I mean, at the time that was completely and utterly logical - twenty-two was pretty much the oldest we could imagine ourselves and why wouldn't our lives be completely in control by then?! 

Well, at the start of the week I turned twenty-two and I am sad to say I have do not have the dream boat man, I have swam with dolphins...when I was fourteen and I do live with my friends but sadly it is not the penthouse suite that I always imagined - although for a student house it is pretty classy. 

So, having come out of the dream of a twelve year old I have decided that a way of living life to the full -  is to create a bucket list. So what follows are the 22 things I want to have completed by the time I am 25. Perhaps in three years I will look back and think 'how silly and naive' but for now I think that these might just maintain some happiness.
