Here’s my senior year bucket list, a guide filled with fun, freedom, and those unforgettable firsts. From spontaneous road trips to creative projects like writing and photography, I’m excited to share ways to make the most of this special year.
By diving into these experiences, you’ll find joy in each moment while keeping an eye on what’s ahead.
Here’s a quick list of things I want to check off before graduation:

- Capture a photo of each campus landmark before they change
- Cook a big pot of soup for a dorm floor

- Join a study group for a subject you love
- Organize a potluck with classmates
- Run a 5K or walk a long trail
