Bucket List

Inspired by Mighty Girl, I've written a bucket list. This is definitely not a static list, and I'm sure I will edit it later. I added some things that were on my teenage bucket list that I've already accomplished, to give myself some motivation by seeing what I've already achieved. Some things on the list are silly and small and you might think they aren't worth listing, some things seem almost impossible. Might as well dream though...
