~My 2018 Bucket List~

Bucket lists are fun. I really enjoy creating them and trying my hardest to complete them throughout the year. They give me things to plan and look forward to. Honestly, this year it took me so long to create this list because I wasn’t sure what I wanted to include. I always get stuck. However, I did know that I wanted to have 13 things on my list because I’m 13! I’m counting on 13 being my lucky number this year! 

1. Visit 25 cities I’ve never been to

13. Start a business 

My goal is to have all these done by the end of the year. Last year, I didn’t finish it so this year I’m really going to try my hardest! 

I reserve the right to add things anytime I want. I also reserve the right to delete something if I add something else. I will not get upset if I don’t accomplish everything on this list. I will try my hardest to accomplish everything on this list but sometimes things are out of my control and it’s impossible for me to complete. Life Happens!

Anyways, create a bucket list and work toward accomplishing it throughout the year! Challenge yourself!
