Everyone seems to have a bucket list these days. Did the term ‘Bucket List’ exist before the movie, or did people just keep their life lists hidden in a journal until the movie came out, and ultimately decided to publicize them in hopes that some aimless millionaire would come along and want to take you on an adventure to fulfill your dreams? I cant imagine that the luke-warm movie actually inspired a term. I mean, It had a decent cast and a semi-interesting story line, and ok, It made me cry a tiny bit, but its not as if it was worth of creating a blog phenomenon-it wasn’t Mean Girls, you werent just Notebooked.. Where did the idea come from? Did people have a Bucket List 100 years ago?
Creating a bucket list for your blog seems a bit narcissistic to me. But then, I suppose so does keeping a blog… and twitter… and facebook. OK then, here it goes…
