Bucketlist

Bucket list, it comes from the saying “to kick the bucket”, to die.

I used to call it my “wish list,” but it does change from time to time. People tend to pursue other things after a while, especially if something can be eliminated. So the list isn’t definitive. And even though I find some things less important now, they were once important when I first made the list… So I’ll keep even the silly things on my list 😉
