7. Order dessert first at a restaurant
Tonight the ArmyMan made a special trip down to my part of Utah so we could have dinner before he leaves for a three-week training. When i asked what would be on the evening's agenda he responded with, "hmmm..what do we still need to cross off your list?" (adorable, right? right). After listing off the items available he thought dessert first would be our goal; and so it was done.
We decided Chili's would adequately help us complete the task because their dessert menu just rocks your socks off. Molten Chocolate Cake? Yes, please! i think the wait staff thought we were a bit crazy because of our order. This surprises me because you'd think more people would want to have their dessert first. it's not THAT obscure of a request, is it?
Anywho. We essentially scarfed our food down like there was no tomorrow; i was just really hungry and the ArmyMan hadn't eaten since breakfast. i think you can understand the hunger.
All in all, a lovely meal (even though it was backwards) and a fantastic night hanging with the ArmyMan.
Item 7? Check!
(on a side note, i realized i'm really bad at documenting adventures in pictures. Something to work on, ESPECIALLY for the paragliding)

summer 2013 bucket list (pt. 2)
11. Eat a whole roll of Hubba Bubba bubble gum at one time
This last weekend began the endeavor that is my Summer 2013 Bucket List. it started with getting Philly Cheesesteaks at DP Cheesesteaks with the ArmyMan who happens to be my bucket list buddy (because some of the items are just not as fun all by your lonesome). He asked what the items on the list were and decided that we should begin at once! So we did.
We began with "eat a whole roll of Hubba Bubba bubble gum at one time". Let me tell you, it is gross! And full of hilariosity. There we were sitting on the couch with our mouths completely full of gum; you can't talk or anything because your mouth it literally FULL. it really was hilarious until we began to feel like we might throw up and i started to laugh which made chewing the gum even more difficult and i felt like i might die (at which point we spit out the gum).
it was also fairly funny because ArmyMan was able to fit the gum in all at once and it took me about five bites to get my roll of gum to even fit in my mouth (this is one of those items that just really would make you look like a wonky to do it by yourself).
So there you have it. Item 11? Check!

summer 2013 bucket list (pt. 1)
i have this bucket list. And it's beautiful. i printed a whole bunch of those "before i die" and "bucket list" pics you can find on Pinterest (and a bunch of other places on the internet) and then i organized them into categories and put them all together in a nice little red photo album. i've slowly (very very slowly) been checking them off with shiny star stickers and the dates the deeds were accomplished and any explanation i feel is necessary. i love this list.
What does this have to do with a 2013 to-do list? EVERYTHING! Because i have chosen 12 awesome "to-do's" and the goal is to complete this mini list before my cohort semester begins in the fall.
Can i do it? You betcha! Feel free to join in because let's face it, completing this list is going to be full of fun fun fun!
So without further ado, here's the goal:
1. own a mockingjay pin (for those who don't know what a mockingjay is, here's a link to The Hunger Games trilogy on Barnes&Noble. Buy it. Read it. Love it.)
2. go paragliding (you can do this in Utah at Point of the Mountain here)
3. drink from a coconut
4. eat enough Skittles to taste the rainbow
5. dye my hair a crazy color (the temporary kind over the weekend. i love my hair too much to do anything drastic)
6. see a platypus up close
7. order dessert first at a restaurant
8. paint roses red
9. find out how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop
10. own a pair of nude pumps (aka high heels)
11. eat a whole roll of Hubba Bubba gum at one time
12. go to a drive-in movie (it's been years since i've been)
