Maybe I should've listed "become more decisive" somewhere above. How am I supposed to choose one item from each category when these are all things I have repeatedly dreamed of doing?

Since it is first on my list, I'll expand on the idea of a bonfire. Grace, I'm seriously counting on you. I imagine a giant bonfire in the middle of an open field. Some people are either sitting in lawn chairs or truck beds, eating the burnt marshmallows they just toasted. Others are up and dancing to some Luke Bryan song (could be a result of seeing him this past Friday). Most likely, there is someone trying to "accidentally" light things on fire. The best part is everyone is having the best time.

If I don't already accomplish it before graduating high school, I want to go on a missions trip. I was told if God wants you to go somewhere, money won't be an issue, so I want to go to Guatemala and build homes for families as well as befriend children at local orphanages all while sharing the Gospel. Right now, God wants me to serve in my community, but he's also calling me to something BIG, outside my comfort zone, outside the United States.

Of course after finding my soul mate, I want to visit France and put a padlock on the Love Lock Bridge. I mean, can it get any more romantic than that?
