101 in 1001

So I saw this post about setting 101 goals in 1001 days, she just started.  It was inspired by this post which is from a woman who just finished!  It was really fun to see what both of these women chose, especially what the second woman did and didn't accomplish.  I really LOVE this!  I've spent the last few days getting my list whittled down to only 101 things!  Harder than you think.  Knowing we'll be poor college students takes certain goals or interests out easily.  And knowing I have 2 and 3/4 years allows me to set some goals I wouldn't be able to with a shorter window of time!  I grew up setting goals and I think it's a great way to really get stuff done.  So I'll be posting on my various blogs (depending on if they are personal, crafty or food) when I complete them.   In fact I already have a few in the works (the curtains for the bunk beds).  This list if full of stuff I've wanted to do for years, weeks or even just days.  I putting them out here in the blogshere to hold myself accountable.  Some are not hard but time consuming and some are hard, I think I found a good mix of stuff I might have gotten done without this list and others I'm really trying to challenge myself with.  So without further ado...  My 101 goals to complete in 1001 days.
