You want to do WHAT?

Within the past year, I have realized that there are so many things that I want to do in my lifetime. Some of them include typical things like get married and have kids, start a business, etc. But more importantly, I want to do things that people don't {typically}do.

First and foremost, I want to become a certified skydiver. This means that I will be able to complete solo jumps out of an airplane without being attached to a professional. There are so many pros to becoming certified, besides the fact that I can jump alone. If I were to be certified, every solo jump would only cost around $20 instead of $200! So not only would it be cheaper, but I also could go so much more frequently. 

So, after I become certified to do solo jumps I want to......... SKYDIVE MT. EVEREST! Yes, this is a new thrill-seeking adventure where you jump out of an airplane at 29,000 ft {with an oxygen tank} and landing at the highest drop zone in the world... Are you kidding me? No, and I am going to do this before I turn 30.

After I get skydive certified, the next thing on my list is my Scuba certification. Ever since I was a kid I had a love for the ocean and sea life. I have always wanted to go to Australia and Scuba dive at the Great Barrier Reef. It seems like such a surreal experience to be able to see all of the colors and exotic fish the live in these truly unique habitats.

Another reason why I want to be Scuba certified is because I am {dying} to swim with the Great White Sharks off of the coast of South Africa, AND I recently learned that you must be certified in order to do this. Supposedly these Sharks are the size of cars... {Side note: I know its Shark Week, but that didn't necessarily influence me to write this post}. Lets be real, how amazing would it be to see a shark the size of a car swimming around you with layer upon layers of sharp teeth. #surreal

I have officially added both of these certifications and experiences to my Bucket List. Do you think I am crazy?
