Four years later and I have finally made it to this moment. 

I am a senior in college, feeling old as sh*t, and all I can say is:

In these short few years I have endured loss and heartache and struggled past insecurities and anxieties.

I have celebrated little wins with margaritas and celebrated little losses…also with margaritas.

I have met people who watch me dance around the living room to Mamma Mia for hours, and who even jump in without putting up (too much of) a fight.

I have celebrated life and love (perhaps a little too much.)

I have learned that the most valuable lesson is the importance of taking each day by storm, making the most out of every little moment, and that nothing cures a bad day quite like a 30 second dance party.

While I have certainly had a memorable college experience so far, I can’t help but feel like I have fallen a little flat in some areas, like I could have done better or made more memories. But not to worry, there is still time! 

It only seems right that my senior year is nothing less than a tribute to all my years.

So, here are 10 goals/bucket list to-dos in celebration of my last hurrah:

Table of Contents

1. Say Yes to More

This is not the year for excuses – say yes to everything!

Take advantage of every opportunity to learn, to network, to have fun.

Go to every game, party, and event, because this is your time. 

2. Don’t Take No for an Answer — Only Consider a Maybe

Go after what you want while you have the resources to, be a persistent squeaky wheel!
