100 Things to Do in 2011



I am not usually one for lists because I don’t really like to take the time to make one, and then if I do, I usually end up losing it.  Anyway, this year, after reading a list my cousin Tyler made, I decided to make a list of 100 THINGS TO DO IN 2011.  Some are practical, some are adventurous, and some are just fun.  I have already done some of the things, so yay!  I hope you enjoy my list and I would love it if there are any items that you would like to partake in with me!  Also, as you will notice, the list is naturally still incomplete, so all suggestions are welcome!!  I need some more ideas!!
