101 in 1001






a couple of months ago. my friend kristin told me to look up this thing floating around the blog world called 101 in 1001. the goal of this project is to make a list of 101 things you want to do in 1001 days. (which is about 2.75 years) each time you complete a task you put 10$ into a savings account so by the end of the list you'll have $1,000 saved up! i thought about if i wanted to do this for a while, it really gave me anxiety to know that by the time i finished i will be 24/25ish and in a whole different life time than i am in right now but i decided to just have fun with it and see what happens!
