the Project 101

1001 days seems like a long time doesnt it?? Well it turns out its not! At least thats how it feels now that im about halfway through this project and i dont have half of the things on this here list that are apart of this here project completed.

And what is this project you ask? This project is a challenge my friend. A challenge set up for yours truly, by yours truly, that will last 1001 days. During this 1001 days i will attemt to complete 101 goals ranging from the painless to the "oh my lord, why did i even say i would i attempt this". These goals aren't based on other people or what other people think i should do, but are 100% things i have a desire to accomplish.

I didnt come up with the concept of 101/1001. Oh no no no. That would be silly. I owe this marvelous idea to the mind of Triplux. I stumbled upon his project page/blog some months ago and i thought it would be an excellent thing to try out. I always have had lists of goals, but i liked his idea of making the span of time i gave myself to complete said goals more realistic. More time is good.

started: March 9, 2006
to be completed: December 4, 2008

I'm going to make another list when this list is complete. I will be totally proud of myself if i finish this. Hot damn!
