101 things to do in 1001 days

I said to Kate today that i had done a list, but wasnt sure on posting it yet, but on my way home, i thought, if i dont post it, apart from myself, who else can share my achievements? because each time i mark one of these off, it will be an acheivement.

Some of the things on my list are very short term goals, some are things that may or not be accomplished by 1001 days, but hey, worth a shot! Dreams are free, and if you dont dream and strive for the best you deserve, life will get dull and really, whats the point in a dull life??
