Senior year bucket list

photo by me of commons lawn just a couple weeks ago before the first snow

So, as you may have gathered from the title of this post, I am a senior and it is absolutely terrifying. However! There are good things about being a senior. Getting to take one on one tutorials with awesome professors, concentrating really intensely on your senior work, getting a sweet single in the house you live in, basically feeling awesome because you’re the oldest people on campus (or horrible, depending on the day).

Another cool thing that some friends and I have put together are our senior year bucket lists. It’s shocking that in a few short months I will no longer be living in this gorgeous state and this wonderful little town. So to make sure I do everything I want to in my last year, this is, lovely readers, a bucket list for Bennington and the surrounding areas (some I have already done, and I am constantly adding on!)

Click through for the list! With convenient links to more information about everything! Awesome.
