101 in 1001

So I read something not too long ago. It was a challenge- make a list of 101 things that you want to do, and then complete them in 1001 days (about 2.75 years). This gives you multiple seasons to complete your list. So here is the start of mine, and I'll update as I complete them! I am starting on June 23th, 2010, which gives me until March 20th, 2013
