A List to Build a Dream On

Hello world!!
I've been wanting to start a blog for a small while now and figured that today was the perfect day for my first entry!! As this is the case, I thought my first entry should reflect the thought of doing something you always wanted to do. Which brings me to the day zero project. This is the list of 101 things to do in 1,001 days! Hopefully as I complete the tasks I can update this list and keep you posted along the way! I also encourage you to make a list of your own.
