My Bucket List
I have had so many experiences here at Iowa State already, and my journey here has just begun. I have several more things that I would like to experience before my time here at college is up. They are things that I will remember for the rest of my life. The first, and probably the most important thing that I want to do, is to graduate college. Another thing that I want to accomplish while attending Iowa State is to receive an internship, whether it be for a summer or a semester. I think that receiving an internship would be really fun because I would be doing something that I would have a possibility of doing for the rest of my life in engineering. I also have many smaller things that I want to do while I am in college. I want to be on a champion team for some intermural sport. I also want to be a member on the Iowa State Livestock Judging team. Another thing that I have in mind is that I would like to be the president or the head of a club such as the Waterski and Wakeboarding club or the ASABE club. I think it would be a great opportunity to be a leader here at Iowa State, and it would be a lot of fun. There are so many things to do here at Iowa State, and it will be fun to accomplish these things that I want to do and cross them off of my list.
When it comes to my bucket list that I have for the rest of my life, I have several things that I want to do that will take some work to accomplish. One thing that I have on the list is to get a job in the engineering world. Another thing that I have had on my list since I was about 10 years old is that I have always wanted a motorcycle. I enjoy riding anything that has two wheels and a motor. My grandpa was the kind of person who really enjoyed working on old cars, and I was always out in the shop helping him. He built a dune buggy, an old model-T truck, and several other projects. When he passed away about 10 years ago, he left several projects unfinished. It has always been on my list to finish all of his projects. He has a sand rail, another dune buggy, and several VW bugs that he has started, and I want to get those fixed up. My bucket list is pretty long, and I think it would be really amazing to get everything crossed off of it.
I also feel everyone's number one goal should be to graduate.Otherwise why are we here? That would be an awsome idea of finishing all of your grandpas projects. I think it would be really fun and that you have finished the projects that he has started for someone to finish, and that should be you.To share the interest that your grandpa used to do would be a great goal. Even though he may not still be here he will always be in your mind during the project.
ReplyDeleteBeing able to finish your grandpa's projects would be a really cool way to pay homage to him and how he inspired you and your goals in engineering. Being able to enjoy your work so much that you want to go home and do more of it is a good sign that you are pursuing the right field!
