BUCKETLIST for before I'm 30 and HOW? 'Cause I'm SINGLE!

Well, here's the deal - most of my closest friends are dating or are married. I however am not. This is it - I'm not a female that is going to sit around bemoaning my fate, wondering what is wrong with me. The thing is... NOTHING is wrong. Everything is great and honestly, I think I'm finally finding out what life is all about.

So as my friends post picture after picture of their babies and husbands, blogs about families and anniversaries, engagements, etc etc... I figured HEY being single is awesome too! I'm honestly kinda sick of LDS society focusing on how people who are married are happy and awesome - and many people act like those are single are "oh those POOR, sad, lonely single people." UH - NO. I say to all you single women out there - there is life to be had other than sitting at home wondering what to do because we're not married! LET'S GO. We have the ability to GO and do ANYthing and BE ANYTHING, why in the world do we care if we're still single?? HELLO, I'm 28 - not 70 or something, I have a life. lol.

Here's the crux of my blog. I am now going to SHOUT as to why single life is so freakin' awesome and am going to change this viewpoint of the "Sad, lonely, single" female. Being married and having babies is not the only thing that is awesome in life. I am going to figure out things to do with my fabulous single self. So... without further ado - here is my bucket list for before I'm 30! Things I can do (anytime I want) because I am SINGLE, free, happy, young, and have the rest of my life to get married! :):):)

Before I'm 30 I will/my Bucketlist:

* Graduate from college in Music Education having: Been Drum Major of the Band for 4 years, conducted and directed a BYU basketball band, been in 3 Relief Society Presidencies, been the President of my Living hall, manager for two different retailers, lost 65 pounds, became a runner, etc etc.

* Sky Dive
* Become Scuba Certified
* Learn how to play Guitar and Piano
* Run at least a half-marathon
* Reach my goal weight
* Learn how to snow board
* Become a boxer
* Visit all of the temples in Utah
* Peruse at least 10 museums that I have never been to
* Hike to the top of 5 new mountains (not ones that I have already done)
* Go to Disneyland (Since I've only been to Disney WORLD a billion times)
* Ride the largest rollercoaster in the United States
*Become a tri-athlete

And all this before I'm 30! And I can... why? Because I'M SINGLE! BOO-YAH! ;)

I want to add to this list as well. So if any of you (marrieds or non-marrieds ;)) have any suggestions of what I can add to this, then let me know!

I'm excited for the life that I can live in anyway that I would like, being grateful to this beautiful, free country in which we live!
