101 Things in 1001 Days

June 29, 2012 – Mach 27, 2015

The 1001 days are over, but I decided to leave this up as a reminder of the things I want to still accomplish. I might make another list at some point, but for now I’m focusing on other things. 

I’ve made a list of things that I would like to do in the next 1001 days – some of them are really big goals, others are just fun little things that I haven’t done since I was a kid, like coloring an entire coloring book.

Items that have been completed are in bold.
