The Accomplishments List

I won't say all these items are blindingly original, but I will say they are all me -- as in, I have some interest in doing them. That seems paramount for a bucket list -- or at least any bucket list I want to be involved in.

10. find a career I genuinely like
11. graduate college
12. live abroad
13. read the Bible all the way through
14. get into grad school

34. learn to code

Current count: 9 down, 25 to go

I tried to make this a mix of totally attainable (learn to dance), pie in the sky (go to space) and already accomplished (learn to swim -- an important skill I already have!). I figure that way I can actually accomplish some of my items, while still leaving room to dream. Also, I get to start checking stuff off already, because hey! I've done stuff! Important to remember.
