P.S. the photos don't do it justice and NO it's not white.
A busy week ahead. I can't believe it's only Monday. More to come.

Living life in the big city, but small town at heart.


Mission: Complete 101 preset tasks in a period of 1001 days.
Criteria: Tasks must be specific (i.e. no ambiguity in the wording) with a result that is either measurable or clearly defined. Tasks must also be realistic and stretching (i.e. represent some amount of work on my part).
Why 1001 Days? Many people have created lists in the past — frequently simple goals such as New Year’s resolutions. The key to beating procrastination is to set a deadline that is realistic. 1001 Days (about 2.75 years) is a better period of time than a year, because it allows you several seasons to complete the tasks, which is better for organizing and timing some tasks such as overseas trips or outdoor activities."
If you're interested in starting your own list, here is a website that may be helpful! http://www.triplux.com/dayzero/
I will post my progress throughout my tasks on here and hope to have them all checked off by day 1001. Wish me luck!
