1. See a Cirque de Soleil show: When they came to Lima for the first

(yet the only time they've been here) we were lucky to get tickets

to this amazing show. 

 

 

2. Give money to a homeless person: One of the nicest people

I've met was a homeless guy who asked for food and money in

New York, one block away from Central Park. We talked for a few

minutes and I was surprised to see how happy he was even

though he didn't have a home or money to survive. 

 

 

3. Travel to Italy: I was lucky enough to visit Europe with my

two best friends, we celebrated New Year in Rome and we

were so excited for the year that was coming (2012).

 

 

 

3. Go to the top of the Eiffel Tower:  After standing in the

line for 2 or more hours under the rain that didn't seem to stop,

we finally got in the tower and took the elevators until we reached

the top. The wind was so strong we had to push our

bodies to walk, we could see Paris at night and it was

one of the prettiest landscapes I've ever seen. 

 

 

4. Ice skate in the Eiffel tower: After reaching the top,

we went down to the first stage on the Eiffel tower.

It was January 5th, so there was still an Ice Ring for

people to ice skate and there was also an ice sculpture

of the Eiffel tower. I wasn't able to ice skate without

leaving my friends who had to hold me tight in order

to survive and don't fall (I am a disaster when I go ice

skating).

 

 

 

 

 

5. Visit Times Square: I wanted to visit Times Square on New Year

but we went there on Januare 7th of 2013, only my mom and I. It

was so much fun, we learned to use the metro without getting

lost (at least I did) and every night we walked through Times Square. 

 

 

6. Crash a party: My friends and I used to crash at parties when

we were younger, we had no shame. Even when the people

in the party recognized that we were "intruders" we didn't

care and danced like we owned the party. 

 

 

7. Ride a Gondola in Venice, Italy: The best part of this experience

was listening to the man riding the gondola sing classical italian

songs. I was so nervous at the beggining because I thought

we would fall but then I calmed down and enjoyed the ride. After it

we visited the Murano factory and got surprised at how they made

those murano sculptures. 

 

 

8. Eat pasta in Italy: Food is my passion and it is also my friends' 

passion, one of the reasons why I'm obese and I will never stop

being obese (even though one of the things I must accomplish

in this bucket list is to reach my ideal weight haha, hope is the 

last thing we can loose). We stopped at every ice cram shop and

after filling our stomachs with "gelatto" we were ready for pasta.

In Venice we ate the best ravioli. We got to enjoy the whole italian

experience while eating because we got lost and ended up in a tiny

family restaurant. The people who served us could only speak 

italian but they were so nice, and the food was the best. 

 

 

9. See a Broadway show: This year when I went to New York 

with my mom we decided we had to see at least one Broadway

show. I wanted to see The Lion King but my mom's eyes opened

wide and filled with excitement  when she saw one of the shows

displayed was Mary Poppins (during this trip I was the parent and

she was the child) so I decided we could go there (my mom doesn't

speak english as well as me so I was the official translator). We bought the 

ticket on the same day and we payed for seats that were far away but 

ended up in the front and VIP seats because there were many seats 

empty and the guy who sold us the ticket charged us the cheapest

seat and placed us on the best one. I think he did this because he 

got entertained while seeing two crazy peruvians talking loud

in spanish while trying to decide to which show they should go). 

 

 

10. See gaudi's works in Barcelona: We got in one of those big

red buses that offer tours around Barcelona and give you 

headphones so you can listen a tape that describes

the most important places of the city. One of the places

we stopped was "Sagrada Familia" a church designed by 

Gaudi. While we got there, we saw like three more buildigs

that were designed by him. I'll find the pictures I took and Upload them

here.

 

 

11.Kiss a stranger: hehe.... everyone did this in our prom trip

to Argentina.

12. Be a Big Sister: In our senior year we can be a big sister of 

a whole class, my class was "Nido D". I had the prettiest 

and most loving "little brothers" anyone could have. This

experience was amazing, I fell in love with every single

one of my children. 

 

 

13.Ride a horse: When we went to Argentina in our prom trip,

we did many things in "Bariloche" like riding motorcycles

or horses. My horse was the shortest one, I considered it a pony.

But I can't complain as I am a midget and my size is approx. 30 cms. 

 

 

14.Dye my hair: After returing from my trip to the U.S I decided 

to dye my hair in a californian style. Until today (12 months later) 

I keep that look. 

 

 

15.Visit Washington D.C: My aunt lives in Virginia, in a city

that is only 5 minutes away from Washington D.C. So every weekend

we went there. We visited the capitol, the library, Alexandria, Georgetown

(and tried one of Georgetown's cupcakes). 

16.Travel to New York: check......

 

 

17.Go to Vatican City: We went there on January 1st of 2012. We 

met some peruvian nuns and got really excited because we had

seen some other people that came from our country. We ate

in a buffet that was near the place were the Pope sent greetings

and instead of seeing the Pope come out at 3pm, we were

eating as many food as we could because we were starving.

(food is the most important element of our day).

 

 

18.Get lost in a foreign country: And guess where we got lost,

we got lost in Rome. None of us could speak italian but there

were many tourists that could speak french so I commuicated

with them. We had to find the rest of our tour group, when we found

them they wanted to kill us because they had to stop the tour

in order to look for us. There was a couple that was mexican, and

the husband could've murdered us if he had a weapon. I started 

to imitate his accent and was so unlucky because his wife listened

to me but instead of getting offended, she laughed and joined

me and our friends in making fun of her husband.

 

 

19. Visit Macchu Pichu: In 2010 our school took us to Macchu Picchu 

and it was the second best trip we did in our school. We took the train 

early in the morning and walked like 2 hours through Macchu Picchu

but had so much fan taking picture with the alpacas or llamas. 

 

 

20. Create a blog: I guess I just did it...... check ;)
