bucket list

I've never made a bucket list, but I have always wanted to. 

There are things that I've had on my "mental" bucket list, 

but I figured it was time to actually write them down. 

I believe when you write you dreams out on paper (or computer), 

you become more motivated to actually see your dreams come to fruition. 

Once I started, I couldn't stop! So many new & exciting things came to mind. 

I don't plan on stopping at just 40 things to do before I die, but it will do for now. 

I think what I will do is revisit this post and add things 

as well as cross them off my list as I complete tasks.
