Review: I no need to do this as it's our culture to eat exotic food..haha.

Looking back these 30 things, I feel amazed, funny and a bit blur with the girls that wrote this list(it's me!). This girl really knows where to go even though along the way I always blurred and I can't figure out about what should I do in this life.

So, I recommended you should write your own list rather than just exist in this world.Make sure your existence is extraordinary. You can create history or you died with the history.
No matter what your age, you still have time to do something like this. As long as you live, there will be always room for change and improvement.

Thank you for reading my blog.
