Buckets and Buckets-Maya Creamer

High School Bucket List
- Maintain my straight A's all the way through senior year
- Get a 3 or higher on all my AP tests
- Qualify for National Merit
- Get accepted to a good college
- Help rebuild my youth group's membership
- Complete a successful mentoring project
- Make new friends from different areas of my life

My top priority on this list is to maintain my straight A's all the way through high school. I enjoy school and take pride in being a hard-working student, and while I know that grades aren't everything, I have set a standard for myself during the first 2 1/2 years of high school that I would like to uphold. If I can accomplish this, I will feel extremely proud of myself.

College Bucket List
- Get a degree in whatever field I decide to go into
- Take up a new activity, sport, etc.
- Study abroad
- Make lifelong friends
- Be in at least one play/musical/stage production
- Play violin in my college's orchestra

My top priority on this list is to take up a new sport or activity. College is a time to discover new interests, and I want to take full advantage of it. Getting involved in something new is also a great way to make friends that you might not have ever met, and who you share a common interest with.

Life Bucket List
- Fall in love 
- Have or adopt kids
- Visit all 50 states
- Travel around the world
- Pursue a career that makes me happy
- Watch every episode of a television series
- Do something to change someone's life
- Make a friend from each of the 50 states
- Adopt a dog and/or a cat
- Write an entire novel, even if I never publish it

 My priority on this list is definitely to have or adopt kids. I love kids, and I think it would be extremely rewarding to be a mother, and to know that I've shaped someone's life. I also think that I would be able to learn so much from my kids; they would remind me to find joy in the little things in life, and to not take myself too seriously.
