The Buried Life

Authors note

Going into this project I wasnt really looking forward to it, I was just expecting another boring project that im gonna wanna see what would happen if I didnt do it. But I gave it a chance and as I started to get into the flow of things and thinking of Ideas and how cool it would be to accomplish some of them, the more I really started to enjoy working on it. I was really happy to learn about the whole animoto concept, I thought that it was a really cool way of giving off a certain ora to your slideshow with all the different styles you could choose and being able to customize a song, it really made it an extension of your personality. This project also made me realize how much I have to look forward to in life and how theres always something out there for you to accomplish. For my buried life project I chose each item not based on what will help me out in life but what will create the lifelong memories and great stories around a campfire with your friends. Ive already completed a few of the items on my bucket list but hope to accomplish many more.


Now What?

Now what? there are to many things on my bucketlist that I would love to accomplish right away but to pick one out of the crowd, I would say that going to united states for lacrosse would be number 1 because lacrosse is my biggest passion in life and always has and always will be. I have been talking to a coach from Lincoln Memorial University in Tennesse and he has told that he was interested in having me out there. I have booked my SATs which I have been studying pretty hard for, and i must admit its been pretty stressful with my school exams around the same time. But im really excited to see how I do on the test and if I do well my college choices are very wide. I hope to accomplish this goal because it would mean the world to my family and myslef and am really looking forward to the future and for what happens next.
