Assignment 18- Leighanne

My top priority on my highschool bucket list is to be prepared mentally, socially and academically for college. During my transition to college, I realize there will be many changes. I will no longer be so attached to my parents and family, I will get the chance to form an entirely new social web and I will be faced with (hopefully) very challenging curriculum. Many of my friends say that I will never survive with out my mother because we are so close but I hope to prove them wrong. I believe my close relationship with my mother will not hinder my growth but expedite it.

My top priority on my college bucket list is to become a master. I have decided that whatever field I decide to go into, I will be one of the best. Through out my entire life, I have always exceled at the activities I commit to: state champion track runner, winning competitive dancer, state-finalist debater, first chair clarinet. I expect the career to which I will dedicate the rest of my life to be no different. This means that in college, I have to learn more, study harder, make more connections than the average student. Being a master of my field has the prerequisite of reaching my goal for my highschool bucket list, I must be a fully functioning adult who is ready for the world. It's people, hardships, surprises.

My top priority in life is love. I put a lot of value in being successful, making money, and being a good person but love trimphs all. When I really think about it, part of the reason I want to be successful is because that will make it easier to love. When I have children, I want to have enough money to provide for them, to show them that I love them and to make sure they love life. I also feel that bettering myself will make it easier for someone to love me enough for marriage. Marriage is very important to me as well. I want to love life, people, the world. That's my goal.
