101 Bucket List
The so-called 101 Bucket List, 101 things that I would like to do in my lifetime. I planned for a while to create a bucket list. The idea came when I was actually thinking about my goals/wishes which I fulfilled by the end of the year 2012. Then I realised it’s really hard to keep note of them. A bucket list is actually a list of things that I want to accomplish.
It is said that if we publicise our goals and make people hold us accountable, one is more likely to fulfil one’s goals. So here I am with my 101 Bucket List.
