Kristy's Bucket List

I have been composing a Bucket List in my mind since I was about 10 years old. Of course, when I was ten I didn't call it a "Bucket List", but it was the same thing. I've decided I need to actually write down my list so that a) people know I'm serious about this, and b) I can feel more accomplished by actually crossing things off. I'm fairly proud of myself that at 33 years old, I've completed many of my life goals. Here is the list in no particular order.
