Goals & Aspirations

If you haven’t heard about the bucket list, it is a wish list of all the goals you want to achieve, dreams you want to fulfill and life-experiences you desire to experience before you die. A bucket list opens up your mind to set totally context-free goals where you list down anything and everything you ever wanted to do, no qualifiers needed. There is no time restraint.

So this is my list. My goals. My aspirations. Things I’d like to learn, do, achieve, finish and whatever else I desire for my life. From the big things to the small things.

Hello! My name is Dez and I just happen to be your not so average twenty-three year old gamer geek girl. I'm married to an equally geeky husband, Jeremy. After many years of fighting infertility we have unlocked the pregnancy achievement and are expecting our first.

In the meantime we already obtained the furkid achievement as we love, play with, cuddle, and sometimes scold an insane dog named Leo as well as our lovely kittens Stryker and Kitana.

As for myself I'm a lover of video games, Hello Kitty, not blowing up my kitchen in an attempt to be a chef, and pretending to be a photographer. Learn more about me!
