The Bucket List

I think everyone needs a bucket list. I always thought it was an interesting idea, and when I found the term scribbled on my grandpa's little notebook one day, I decided that there's no time better than now to start one. After all, what if I don't make it as far as my grandpa has?

I'm not going to bother trying to put them in any specific order, because my OCD would undoubtedly get the best of me. Some will be long-term, and some not so much. I'll probably add more to the list as time goes on.
