Summer bucket lists are a must. Don’t ask me why, they just are. I mean you have 3 to 4 months of pure nothingness that make up your days so why not partake in memorable experiences to last a lifetime? I have a few things that I would love to do this summer, so i’ll list them here and you guys let me know what your summer bucket lists are.
1. Shakespeare in the Park
A very much loved tradition that takes place in the heart of Manhattan in no other than Central Park..the park of ALL parks. The play takes place in the Delacorte Theater in the park and tickets are get this, FREE!
2. Take a Road Trip to Somewhere I Have Never Been
This is probably an ever present subject on bucket lists everywhere but this summer I am making it happen. America is a beautiful place in its own right and I do believe it is time that I explore it for my own, or with my closest friends!
3. Find a New Hobby
I have always loved writing and reading and crafting but maybe its time I find a new niche. Maybe running, ballroom dancing, water polo, fencing, hula hooping! Whatever I decide the possibilities are endless, I could literally do anything if I set my mind to it…when I find my new hobby i’ll be sure to keep you posted.
4. Make New Friends
I love the friends I have now, but meeting new people is always fun and exciting. I want to find people that I never thought I would befriend and build lasting relationships.
5. Create and Finish a Scavenger Hunt
So this is something I wanted to do in High School but it never came through. A giant scavenger hunt throughout Manhattan would probably be the most fun ever! Think of all the things that could be on the list. Spending a day in the city doing crazy, fun, reckless things with my friends sounds like a perfect summer day to me!
6. Stay Out All Night
Think about watching the sunset with your friends and special someone then spending that night laughing and drinking by a bonfire, sharing stories and learning so much more about the people you hold dear, not realizing that the night is slipping away from you but you don’t care because your exactly where you want to be. I want to experience one of those nights, that turn into mornings, nights where you watch the sun set and see it rise the next day.
7. Learn How to Cook
Maybe go to a cooking class, or just watch some Youtube videos but this summer I want to become a gourmet chef 😉
8. Volunteer
Whether a homeless shelter, a foster home, or an animal hospital this summer I want to give back to my community and make the world a better place one tiny step at a time.
9. GIANT WATER BALLOON FIGHT
Need I say more?
10. Make a Summer Scrapbook
I want to document all the amazing things that I do this summer so I can always look back and reminisce. I will use this book as a reference for all the summers in the future so I can do even better every time!
This is a very short list and I am sure I will be adding to it as the summer progresses, maybe you guys could give me some feedback on your summers and I can get some even cooler ideas!
…What’s yours?
