Mission: I have roughly 2.75 years to complete these tasks! After each task is completed I will blog about it and cross it off my list!
Why?: More often than not, we let life fly on by and we do not accomplish the things we want to do. After seeing several other bloggers complete lists like these, I thought it would be a fun way to document me doing the things that I actually want to do! This idea is based off the Day Zero Project
When?: Start Date: July 29, 2013
End Date: April 25, 2016Key: Italicized means in progress
