My Bucket List

Hello there,

A bucket list - our greatest ambitions and wildest dreams all scribbled down. It's not just in your imagination if it's black and white, hey why not go crazy with multicoloured sharpies! What I'm trying to say is it's not just a thought that can be forgotten or a boring regimented list - it's our hopes, goals and wishes. Dare to believe, be brave enough to write it down and be absolutely brilliant by making it happen. A great man once said 'believe you can and you're halfway there'.

So, here's me believing that anything is possible and I really encourage that you do too, because if I can there truly is hope for everyone. Look I'm already halfway, I'd say that's grand progress, wouldn't you?

First of all, my current bucket list is about 5 pages long, front and back! Therefore, I will be doing this as a continued series because really a bucket list need not have an end. It's also worth mentioning that I've already been lucky enough to check a few of them off such as visiting places like New York, Egypt and Disneyland Paris! 

This was Central Park, New York City back in 2012. The time of hurricane Sandy, a school trip I shall never forget, it really was the epitome of a grand adventure! 

Let's begin shall we with crazy idea número uno:

Ever since I was little, I've had a fascination with VW Campers - the proper retro ones with a split screen and tiny cooker in the back. I'm just in love with the idea of jumping in my little yellow camper, let's call him Indy, and travelling wherever the wind may take us! I'd go as far as his old, worn out engine could manage, hopefully from the beauty of the highlands to a lively Galway bay. Maybe I'll even venture across the channel if we are lucky, and my money hasn't run out on repairs that are notoriously difficult to find and extremely expensive. Europe, the US and Australia, I want to see it all and experience all their contrasting cultures - especially the food. I do love my food! The simplicity of it all appeals to me, no buses to chase, flights to catch or hotels to book. Itenaries just confuse me and I'd rather explore then have time pressures dictating my every move. I'd just find a quite corner overlooking the beach or opt to be amongst the hustle and bustle of city life, and go from there. Simples! There you go, the best road trip ever!

Which means my first bucket list adventure is now official, set in stone for all to see. Well go on then, why don't you start your own quirky little list? The world really is your oyster, you know.

I do apologise for my absence

Well hello there,

I am dreadfully sorry for my tardiness. It's been a whole four months and seven days since I started my blog, yet I still haven't published a second post. I know, it really is unacceptable. Maybe it's because making a sequel is surrounded by so much pressure and inevitably they will never live up to the first one anyway! Or I've been living in the jungle with no wifi and a bear called Baloo! I prefer the latter scenario personally. Whatever the reason/excuse, I'm determined to have another go. No one wants to be a one hit wonder, do they?

Four whole months of no lessons, homework or exams! 'Well what have you done with all that time Bryher?', I hear you ask! You didn't? Well I may just tell you anyway.

Star Wars fangirl moment! But where do I begin though? From pretending to be a knight at Warwick Castle (damsel in distress just isn't my thing) to my emotive visit to Auschwitz that truly broke my heart! I've certainly had a very historical adventure, to say the least. Then again, I was a certified time traveller from a very young age!

                      

Well I'll leave that there for tonight - baby steps to begin with. But there'll be more on my unforgettable trip to Poland soon and what else I did during my mini hiatus from education. It would also be a crime if the World Cup didn't feature as it'll be a rather long wait for my next chance. 

*fingers crossed*

Goodnight, if there is anyone out there. You know what they say 'speaking to yourself is the first sign of madness'. But there's a fine line between that and genius!
