In the movie the Bucket List. There are two characters who are diagnosed with terminal illness and they decide to make a list of things they would like to do before they "kick the bucket". I thought it would be interesting to create something of my own. Though I don't have a terminal illness; I thought it would be a good thing to do to write down what I'd like to do in my life. Some of them are a bit romantic and others are just kind of weird. It kind of fits my personality, and what I'd like to do. I encourage everyone to write down the their own bucket list, and it doesn't have to be anything extreme, it could be simple and just.
Here is mine so far...feel free to take some of them...i'm up to 74...you don't have to read them all but if you want to you can.. ;) (Some of them refer to others as numbers but, i couldnt get the numbers copied and didn't feel like entering in all numbers 1-74)
