Most people have heard of the Bucket List, a list of things you want to have achieved before you die. Well there's mine on the right side of the screen. I thought this blog would be a fun way to document each item as I accomplish it, and hear others opinion's on my Bucket List items. If anyone ever finds my little blog, feel free to leave comments, I'd love to hear from you. It would amaze me to have people decided to follow it!

So I'm Gonna Start Item 27. Make Rubber Band Ball

It has been so busy the last few weeks with homework, studying, sleeping, and meeting new people at university.  I was at Staples a couple weeks ago, and bought a couple bags of rubber bands to start this project, so it's time to start another bucket list item!  I've decided that my goal is to make a ball that weighs ten pounds, people have made them weighing over three hundred pounds, so I hope this is a realistic goal!


I didn't know how to start my rubber band ball, so I began by looking on youtube.  It wasn't too hard, I just took one band, and bunched it into a little ball then slowly began wrapping the other bands around it.  At first it was difficult to make the ball round, but slowly I changed the shape from an oval to a sphere.  I'm not sure how I'm going to weigh it, maybe I'll go to a deli in a grocery store, and ask them to weigh it... Well I know what I'll be working on in my breaks from studying.
