Dreams and My Bucket List

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
― H. Jackson Brown Jr., P.S. I Love You

 The Future is this mysterious unknown that is so exciting and nerve wrecking at the same time. As I try to envision mine all my dreams and accomplishments I want to make, rush around my head crashing through my mind like ocean waves against a cliff. There are so many things I wish to do in my life that I sometimes wonder when I plan to sleep. Life is too wonderful to not want to experience everything it has to offer. 

With this thought I've decided to share a current version 

of my Bucket List with you. As of now these are what I hope to do and accomplish in my life. 

1. To live in a big city 

 
2.  Eat lunch in Paris next to the Eiffel Tower

 
3. Get a Mars bar in London

 
4.Go with Trevor to put a padlock on the Lover's Bridge in Paris 

 
5. Write for Seventeen Magazine

 
6. Publish a novel

 
7.  Finish writing the screenplay my friends and I are writing

 
8. Learn how to cook

 
9. Learn to speak fluent French

 
10. Meet Sarra Manning

 
11. Work backstage/on a set as a hairstylist and makeup artist

 
12. Have children

 
13. Teach English

 
14. Be an amazing wife and mother 

15. Inspire others  

  
 

 Do you have a Bucket List? 

Do we have any of the same dreams?

  

I would love to know what you hope to accomplish in your life!

Meet Nicole

  

 So I realized, I kind of just jumped right into my blog without really introducing myself. My name is Nicole Jones. I am a 20-year old who set aside her psychology books, turnitin account, and sleepless nights writing papers for a blow dryer, shears, and tint brushes.

My heart desires a pen and paper. Writing is everything to me.

I have unhealthy obsessions towards Jeremy Allen White, Dylan O' Brien,  and Joseph Gordon Levitt. I can easily make a HIMYM reference in any situation (it's kind of a gift), and with that... Let me introduce the Marshall to my Lily

 

My husband's name is Trevor and we have been happily married for a little over a year. We are high school sweethearts who were brought together because a few idiots decided to rob a bank by our school. Which led us to be in lock down for a few hours and I ended up with his number and sent him a little "texty-text" (here I go with the HIMYM references) and now we are husband and wife.

Along with my unhealthy obsession for snackable actors, I also have an unhealthy obsession for TV shows and movies. My current top ten--err lets make it twenty TV shows are:

1. How I Met Your Mother (bet you didn't see that coming!)

2. Supernatural

3. Shameless

4. The Big Bang Theory

5. Breaking Bad

6. Gossip Girl

7. Orange is the New Black

8. True Blood

9. Girls

10. 2 Broke Girls

11. New Girl

12. Community

13. American Horror Story

14. Scrubs

15. Boy Meets World

16. Golden Girls

17. Sons of Anarchy

18. Teen Wolf

19. The Walking Dead

20. Ground Floor

By the way this list is not in any particular order.

Lipstick... Eye shadow... Mascara... Oh My!

My other obsession is makeup and skincare products. I have started a YouTube channel that has a strong focus on beauty related topics, however with chaos of remodeling our house I have not had much time to update my channel. So I am going to be working to get back to that very soon. If you are interested in checking it out just look for Nicole Jones on YouTube.com! 

Well those are a few things I thought you might want to know about me, until next time!

Live by: Honesty

I got to talking to a client Saturday who gave me some words of inspiration. I commented on an adorable bag she was carrying as she reached to pull out her wallet. It had a quote about being brave plastered to the bottom. She smiled at my compliment and began to tell me why it was so special to her.

 

She explained to me that she chooses a word every year and focuses her decisions, actions, and choices on that specific word.  I instantly thought this was such a clever idea. So I got to thinking "What word would I choose?"

I took this Sunday to consider many words and I finally found myself content with the word "Honesty." It's not like I'm a person who lies all the time, but I find myself trying to conceal the truth in order to make situations seem like they are something that they are not. I want to take in all aspects of life-whether they are good or bad. My goal is to be honest with myself, as well as with others.
