Dying To Go Cliff Diving

Where does the phrase “kick the bucket” come from? The phrase “kick the bucket” refers to the bucket which they slaughtered pigs and many pigs struggled against the ‘bucket’. But bucket list means that those are the things you want to do before a set amount of time. For my “bucket list” I am dying to go cliff diving in Mexico La Quebrada, Acapulco it is the main setting where cliff diving occurs. The whole reason I found out about cliff diving was because my niece was watching a movie called “Instructions Not Included” Cliff diving is exactly what it sounds like. You dive into a pool of water from a cliff. Sounds fun right or as others would say carefree, crazy, reckless and a death wish. Well, first of all I am crazy (thanks mom!). The first I will need to get to La Quebrada which is usually one thousand dollars for a plane ticket from Walla Walla, WA. That's  pretty much it, except for preparation because not much safety goes on in to choosing which cliff to dive off (I mean come on no water wings while jumping of a cliff).

I’m not much of a planning person, more of a "in the moment" type of person, but this is one goal I’m dead set on. So yes I’m planning this to every last detail. I plan on going cliff diving with my cousins after high school. I will do this as soon as possible. And hopefully I’ll be in Google images one day risking my life for a bucket list. If anyone wants to go with me, let's go!
