My Bucket List

Ever since watching the movie The Bucket List I have had a mini bucket list of my own forming in my head. I have never written it down though so I sadly forget things, or do something awesome like riding a motorcycle on a mountain in the sprinkling rain in Costa Rica, and wonder if it ever was on my bucket list. . it sure should have been. To be honest I partially haven't written it down purely because I was torn on whether I should share it with people, or keep it locked up in a little drawer somewhere. And lets be honest, some of the things I find imperative to do or accomplish before I die may be things that y'all have done a thousand times. Or find absolutely bonkers. But I guess that's my problem, I care about other people's opinions too much. Who cares if you think that my wanting to do yoga on a cliff over the ocean is unrealistic, I think it's fabulous. And I promise you I will do it. . eventually.

I want to say that the list goes from trivial and expected to unique and unusual but it doesn't. It's in an order straight from my head so it's jumbled. I'll be continuously adding to this as more things pop into my head and hopefully crossing things off as I'm able to accomplish them.
