Planning a holiday is more fun than planning a wedding

People expect the bride to be excited and happy about planning her wedding. I tried to be, but every time I switched on my laptop to start planning the wedding, I ended up daydreaming about where I want to go next. I will start reading up on new destinations, looking for air tickets and deciding where our next trip will be. I have now finished planning my honeymoon, and moved on to two more holidays after that. My wedding? Well, it is not really done yet. Is there something wrong with me? Why aren't I excited on what some people call "the happiest day of your life".

Some people called it their wish list, or bucket list, or even a simple to do list. Whatever you call them, I encourage you to have one!

The more interesting and exciting they are to you, the higher chance that you will actually do something to achieve it!  Here's my list !  Where's yours?
