If you've been reading my blog for awhile, then you know that I love lists. If you haven't been reading my blog for awhile then just FYI, I LOVE LISTS! Especially my bucket list. It's my absolute favorite list.
While there's a ton of things I want to cross off my lists, there are also a lot of things that I've already been able to cross off my list, which is why I wanted to share with y'all my Reverse Bucket List.
RIDE A TRAIN
When I visited NYC while working as a camp counselor, I got to ride a train for the first time. We packed two cars full of counselors and took a road trip from Honesdale, PA to Hoboken, NJ. Then we rode the train to and from Hoboken to NYC. I can't say I liked or disliked the experience. I was just happy to cross it off of my bucket list. This happened in 2012.
GRADUATE FROM COLLEGE
This was obviously a big feat. I felt like it was a long time coming. After 18 years of schooling, I finally got my bachelor's degree. I graduated in 2012.
GO TO A PSYCHIC
I had a lot of first time experiences when I was a camp counselor. Another was going to a psychic when a few of us visited Philadelphia. I paid $10 to get one of palms read. I did this during the summer of 2012.
TAKE PICTURES IN WHITE ON THE BEACH
See above picture. I had always wanted to take these kinds of pictures on the beach, and I finally got to when my Tech Family and I took a road trip to the beach during our junior year in 2011. Pictured above is the "7 Deadly Sins" picture we did. Can you figure out which sin everyone is portraying? :)
RIDE A MECHANICAL BULL
In college, I was part of an organization called Union Board. One of the events we put on was Show at the Joe, and during this particular event, there was a mechanical bull. I had always wanted to try it. I got on twice, and I was horrible, but I did get this awesome picture out of it.
GO TO THE COCA-COLA FACTORY
I don't even drink soda, but when I visited the Coca-Cola factory, I had to indulge. Even when my mom lived in Atlanta, I never visited the factory, but when I was passing through on a road trip to South Carolina, I just had to stop. It was a blast learning about Coke's history.

SING KARAOKE IN PUBLIC
If you didn't know, Filipinos love karaoke. Being half-Filipino, I love singing on the game, Rock Band, and singing karaoke in the privacy of my own home, but when it comes to doing it in public, I get so nervous. I'm not a good singer, but I like to have fun. The first time I did it was for an immersion project in college in 2010. I sang *NSYNC. Since then, I've done it a few more times.
TAKE A PAINTING CLASS
Ever since Painting with a Twist came to Shreveport/Bossier, I knew I had to go. If you don't know, Painting with a Twist is a one-time painting class where you can order wine while you paint. The first time I went was for a bachelorette party. We painted a house. I went again for a friend's 21st birthday. I've also taken a legitimate watercolor painting class. I love painting and wish I had more time to take more classes.

GO PARAGLIDING
I went paragliding in Mexico when I went on a cruise with my family. I was a junior in high school. While I'm deathly afraid of heights, paragliding was an absolute thrill! I went paragliding in 2006.
GO ON A CRUISE
I've been on two cruises in my life, once as a junior in high school with my family as mentioned before. We went to Mexico, the Cayman Islands and Jamaica. The second time was two days after my college graduation with a few of my fellow graduates. Both cruises were a blast. I love cruises. As I've said before, they're the best kind of vacation. The first cruise I went on was in 2006 and the second in 2012.
I'm excited to fulfill more things on my bucket list this summer! Do you have a bucket list? What things have you crossed off of your bucket list?
