And So It Begins

So, today is Day One of the 101 in 1001 Project. I figured that the Fourth of July is as good a time as ever to start. This way, I'll have until the end of March 2012 to finish everything up.

I thought I'd start off with some easy stuff. I'm going to Borders tonight to pick up some of the books I'll need (Causing A Scene, #72 and 73; Wreck This Journal, #84; I Can't Tell You, #93). But I'd like to actually have something to show for myself at the end of the day.

And that being the case, I chose to start on #76 - Do 25 things from Keri Smith's List.

I followed her instructions - print out, cut on dotted line, choose random square. I wanted to mix them all up in a hat, but I didn't have a hat. So I grabbed the next best thing I could find - a frying pan - and shuffled them all up (over the stove, of course).

I ended up pulling idea number two: Write a letter to yourself in the future.

Going with the theme of 1,001 days, I decided to write a note to myself to be read on midnight April 1st, 2012 - just after the deadline for these goals. I'll let you read it, but guess what... You're not seeing it until I do - in approximately 1,000.5 days. Until then, we'll just have to see how the rest of my goals go.
