101 in 1001

Monday, March 23, 2015

It's the first day of school and I've got this massive break between classes, but no studying that needs to be done (hooray!), so I did what any girl would do: caught up on some blog reading. Mackenzie Horan is a blogger that I follow pretty consistently (she has the preppiest wardrobe I've ever seen and I just love it) and she made this mega bucket list that I've decided to copy. Imitation is the greatest form of flattery, right? :)

So here's the concept: you choose 101 things that you want to do in 1001 days, which is just under 3 years. That should plenty of time, right? If I start today, which I am, I'll have until the end of December 2017 to finish. It's crazy to think that 2018 is just over 1000 days away, isn't it?!

Now, the list:

1. Take a yoga/pilates class
