Lately it seams everyone has become obsessed with the bucket list. You know, the
list of things to do before you die.
Kinda morbid, right? But, it’s
supposed to make you think about goals and working toward them, even if you
list things like “visit every continent” but have never left the state where
you were born, it’s a goal. I personally
am not much of a goal setter but I recently saw blog where a lady looked back
at all the things she had done so far in life to remember she had already done
a good chunk of living. Now, this is an
idea I can get behind. Without further
ado, I give you:
