     99 things to do before I die

 

There are so many things in life that make you say to yourself "I've GOT to do this once, before I die !!" Some you're able to do, some you don't and most of them, you forget about. So I've compiled for myself a 'to-do' list. My very own list for my very own life! Few of these I've already achieved but most of them are pending. Also, I've not included big issues (like career, relationships) in here but instead very very small things. Small things that make a HUGE difference!
