La Liste de Seau. According to freetranslation(dot)com it means The Bucket List.
My Bucket List, to be precise. I’ve always had one in my head, but it would be a wise idea to write everything down, including the things I’ve already conquered. I’ve been thinking about doing this for a while now, but I never seem to have it in me to write it all out. There are so many things that I have jumbled up in my head. Some large and some small, but they deserve a place on this list.
I’ll make it a point to come here and update the list accordingly. Scratching off things I’ve done and adding new things that come to me. It will be like a journey we take together!
