Assignment 18: Ethan Petraitis

Well, the number one priority on my bucket list for highschool would have to be having all decent grades (A’s and B’s) all year. This is quite possibly the lamest thing anyone could have on a bucket list, but it’s where I’m addressing 100% of my effort for the next year. No skydiving or bullfighting here, just focus on what needs to be done.

For college, my bucket list is equally lame. I want to secure a job (really a career) before I get out of college. I don’t want to have to wander around for a year after I graduate, just trying to find out what to do with my life. Not for me. When I meet new people and they ask me what I’m going to do with my life, I want their response to be “Wow, this kid had it figured out, he knew what he was doing.” As long as a have a fulfilling college experience and a job lined up when I get out, I’ll be happy.

Alright, life. Here’s where I have flexibility. Before I kick the bucket, I want to have a large-ish fairly modern house made with lots of exposed oak and maple, some stone accents, and a little bit of property. That’s my end-game, a nice house. If I have a nice house that I’m proud of, I’ll have had a satisfying life. I’d like to move out west, somewhere like Montana or Colorado with forests and a lot of nature, somewhere that can get COLD in winter. I never cared much about skydiving, going to Paris, or anything like that.

This, this is number one on my bucket list, just look at that wall. That's one fine wall.
