\nThere\u2019s always a big fuss about living your life to the fullest, seizing your dreams, carpeing every diem that ever comes your way. Bumper stickers, song lyrics, t-shirts all read \u201cYOLO\u201d and lists of things to do before you die<\/strong> keep stemming up all over the place. There is an appeal to following your dreams or having an aim that keeps you going through your mundane student or work life. Contrary to popular belief though, the top 10 bucket list items don\u2019t always feature crazy adventures like zip lining across Victoria Falls but have somewhat a more romantic twist.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a list of the top 10 most popular bucket list items:<\/h3>\n
1<\/span>\u00a0Act of Kindness<\/h2>\n
A lot of people want to tap into their altruistic natures by taking on \u2018random act of kindness\u2019 challenges that include things like, donating blood, signing up to donor banks, leaving motivational messages in books at libraries and book stores, visiting old age homes, donating to a charity, running for a cause, cutting their hair for cancer etc.<\/p>\n
2<\/span>\u00a0Travelling<\/h2>\n
The number one regret of the elderly is that they didn\u2019t travel enough when they were young and capable of it. You will see an increasing trend with youngsters of moving towns, moving countries and even living in exotic places that pays minimum wage but provided more travel options. The number of students opting for a gap year program is steadily rising.<\/p>\n
3<\/span>\u00a0Learning a new Language<\/h2>\n
As the world\u2019s borders fades thanks to the internet and more connectivity, majority of the people feel the need to learn a second and even a third language. Sites like Live Mocha and Duolingo propping up is sign of this. People are increasingly watching shows in foreign languages, listening to world music and so on.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
4<\/span>\u00a0Going to a concert<\/h2>\n
Another regret of the elderly is not going to watch their favourite musicians perform. Not only can you groove to your favourite tunes, you can also feel like you are part of history. How many people who attended a Woodstock concert now look back on it as the \u201cbest time\u201d?<\/p>\n
5<\/span>\u00a0Physical Fitness<\/h2>\n
Everyone now is health conscious and rightly so. The understanding of how to take care of your body is important. Knowing that your body deteriorates with time means that more people want to be at their peak and take advantage of their good health. Everyone signs up for Cross Training programs. Couch to 5k challenges and even the more nerdy, walk to Mordor challenge. \u201cOh you\u2019re on a diet\u201d is no longer said as an insult.<\/p>\n
6<\/span>\u00a0DIY Projects<\/h2>\n
This craze has been around since before Pinterest \u2013 be it modifying your bike or nurturing a backyard garden, making things from scratch and with your hands leaves you with a great sense of accomplishment and is easier to tick off your bucket list than you would think.<\/p>\n
7<\/span>\u00a0Following your dreams<\/h2>\n
A lot of youngsters are now more motivated than ever to study their interests, get into a job they truly love (instead of following in the footsteps of their parents) and are not as hesitant to quit a soul sucking job. The internet is full of success stories of people who dared to dream, who stuck it out till they found their dream jobs and more and more happy\u00a0people<\/p>\n
8<\/span>\u00a0Graduate<\/h2>\n
A lot of people\u2019s bucket list item includes finishing school, getting a bachelor\u2019s or a master\u2019s degree, earning a doctorate etc. While more people are opting for short courses and vocational degrees, everyone has the common goal to graduate.<\/p>\n
9<\/span>\u00a0Dancing in the rain<\/h2>\n
This is a seemingly simple bucket list item but one that requires a lot of input in that, it is something that goes against what society thinks is proper. Just like people still are vary or scared of breaking glass, dancing in the rain is a simple act of rebellion that requires one part of getting over your fears, one part of following your heart and two parts of letting go.<\/p>\n
10<\/span>\u00a0Falling in love<\/h2>\n
This is a bucket list item that hasn\u2019t changed since the inception of a bucket list concept. People want to fall in love, \u201cmeet the one\u201d, have romantic fairy tale like love stories. People are looking for companionship and people don\u2019t want to \u201csettle\u201d because they have no other option.<\/p>\n
