Writer's Statement: I named my bucket list Big Dreams because I have been dreaming of these things for years; ever since I was a little boy I have wanted to accomplish these goals. This piece somewhat connects to the pandemic because the pandemic is giving me time to work for these dreams. I choose to do this topic for my final project because right now these are the things that mean the most to me.
On my high school bucket list, I don’t have a lot of things. There are only 2 things I want to accomplish. One thing is to make the varsity basketball team. I have been working hard for that goal for a long time now. This past season made me realize that I haven’t been working hard enough. To make this dream a reality is an achievable goal but it won’t be as easy as I once thought. My second dream is that after I make it on the varsity team I want to make an all-metro team. This dream is even harder than the first but I think I can do it. It has always been a dream of mine to play college basketball and these two things are very important stepping stones to that overall dream.
