My Bucket List

Throughout our lives we all have dreams we want to accomplish, the word we use to describe the list of dreams is a bucket list. Mine consists of what I've thought about doing my whole life, my dream trips or something I've wanted to accomplish. Easily one of the top things I want to do in my life is somewhat simple, but not for someone like me who has only been out of state once, but I'd love to visit New York.



The thought of visiting "The Big Apple" has just fascinated me, it's a city of dreams and some place I can't wait to visit later on in my life. Next is something more personal, I've always wanted to learn the German language and be able to understand their conversation.



I have a lot of interests that have to do with Germany so I want to understand my interests a little more, which include traveling to Germany one day, and one of my very favorite soccer teams is Borussia Dortmund from Germany. But at the very top of my list is to visit and spectate my all time favorite soccer team Real Madrid and watch them play a game at the Santiago Bernabeu against their arch rivals FC Barcelona



This is the biggest soccer rivalry in the world and almost every fan of the sport dreams of attending one of these matches and to be able to be there would help me accomplish my biggest dream in my life.

Work and Happiness

Everyday we search for a neutral position of work and happiness, some try to find happiness in work. Where do you stand? Can you truly enjoy yourself at work? Or are you finding it harder and harder to crack a smile after an office joke? Many people follow their dreams and work their dream job, some people work to pay things off or buy luxury items or trips to a vacation spot. Let's face it, office jobs aren't too exciting, but neither is being a plummer. Some people enjoy working with customers, some people are tired of the feeling of constantly being nagged at by customers. But happiness can come from either job perspective, whether it's at work or at home. To some, their job is their escape from the outside world, for others they are waiting 8 hours to escape from their work complex. So I ask, are you happy to be working or working to be happy?
