My 2012 Bucket List



Bucket List
Definition (one of many):

A "Bucket list" is a list you make with friends of things you always say your going to do and don't. Not before you die...just for fun



I've decided that I need to set some goals - big and small - for myself for this coming year. These are not resolutions as everyone knows that when you set resolutions for yourself on New Years Eve, they hardly ever pan out. No, these are my To Dos; my bucket list for this year.



These are things that are measurable by actual results. I'm writing them here as a means to keep track of my progress. As I finish items on this list, I will update them here. For now, here it goes - in no particular order:
