November 2012: summer edition

Feature

22

Can you believe that the year is almost coming to an end? It feels like just yesterday we were talking about new years resolutions and vacation plans. Yet here we are again. The big question is, how many of our resolutions have we actually achieved?

The mere thought of the words "New Years Resolution" is scary. It seems so dull and strenuous, almost like going to the gym! Instead of resolutions, why can we not have bucket lists? They always seem exotic and adventurous. As the saying goes, it is never too late to try... this is our November Bucket List:

1. Put a twinkle in someone's eye.

2. Treat yourself to a new shade of lipgloss.
