Life is too short as everyone says. It is just up to us how we spend our days. Usually when people die, we cannot help but look back the days that passed by in our lives. Normally, we hear regrets.
I am making a list of things I want to do before I die. This list will include the places I want to go to, things I want to buy/own, etc. All in one list. (Some of them may sound stupid but who cares anyway. Do you?)
