But i kind of feel the same really. except i am older. and next year i will be 25. and if i am doing my math right, that's like being 1/4 of the way through my life...if i live to be 100. but considering the fact that my grandma, who is almost 90 years old, goes out dancing almost every night and gets home later than me on the weekends i feel like my chances are pretty great that i might see 100. i digress. since i am turning another year older i have decided to document my bucket list. these aren't in order of importance or anything.<br />
