While I have heard of (and made) a Bucket List, I’ve never heard of a Birthday Bucket List until recently.
Apparently, they’re a thing.
The idea is that you create a list of items you want to complete before your next big birthday, usually one of the milestones.
No reason you couldn’t do one for every birthday, but that seems kind of tiring.
The list can include practically anything: adventures to go on, tasks to complete, places to visit, people to meet, experiences to try, items to purchase, etc.
Most of the lists I’ve seen have been for the big 3-0, but I’ve also seen 25th, 40th, 50th, and a few 60th birthday bucket lists as well.
The only real “rule” is that the items on your list must match the birthday deadline, as in 30 before 30 or 40 Things To Do Before I Turn 40. Although even that rule is flexible, as I’ve also seen 29 Things Before 30, and 39 Experiences Before I Hit 40 lists as well.
Hey, it’s your birthday bucket list, so your rules!
