Description:

This is the first swap I've hosted, so please bear with me and let me know if there is anything I can do better next time around :) @blockstar has hosted a bucket list swap in the past with great success. Hopefully this one will be as well!

Bucket lists are lists of things we want to accomplish or experience by the time we die. I think we all have one- either written down somewhere or just mentally. The idea of this swap is to actually write it down and share them with others. Since these lists can go on forever, please try to get at least 100 items on yours (it's easier than it sounds) and include a brief introduction about yourself (about 1/2 a page). Feel free to get creative- add pictures, use fun paper, etc.

Newbies are welcome. Participants must have a complete profile with no unexplained low ratings.

I have hosted this twice, both times it was #1 swap by the time it was time to mail!! This swap is so fun and I am a HUGE bucket list supporter! Fun swap, thanks for hosting :)

Sounds like fun, I'm in!

@blockstar Thanks for letting me know you hosted before. I don't want to step on anyone's toes!

SweetBizar 09/24/2012 #

I already started working on it .. but 100 items ... it's a lot :)

@ SweetBizar I use the Day Zero Project website to help me organize and come up with good ideas.

@pandxa dont worry about stepping on my toes! This is great :D

pandxa 09/25/2012 #

@SweetBizar you can include things you've already done that were once on the list if you can't get to 100 :)

If anyone else is having a little trouble coming up with 100 items, there are some tips and strategies here http://litemind.com/tackle-any-issue-with-a-list-of-100/

That article is also the main reason why I chose to make this swap for lists of 100. I've been using the lists ideas listed there as journal prompts for a while and have really enjoyed it.

So is this written as a list in a letter or a list in a journal or what?? I have never participated in a bucket list swap before and want to do it right. :)

pandxa 09/27/2012 #

@swellmomma good question- a list in a letter is fine but feel free to improvise and be creative :)

I already have a short bucket list. Can I include the ones that I already crossed off?

pandxa 10/ 4/2012 #

@KatrinaAlana Sure thing :) just put a star next to the one's you've done or write it in a different color, or something else to let your partner know it's something you've already done
