So. My motives behind this post are pretty simple. Nothing too exciting happened in my life since the last time I posted, except for convincing the boyfran to see Magic Mike with my sorority sister, K, and I last night. But I'm writing this post so I can finally share my 101 in 1001 list! I have seen these bucket-lists-of-sorts on several different blogs now, and I decided it was time to make my own! Basically, it's just a list of 101 things you want to do/accomplish/experience in 1001 days. Pretty cool, huh? So while I had ample free time in SoIll, I did a little deep thinking and created my own list! Are you ready for this jelly?

I'm ready. 1001 days starts now...
Til next time,
Shelby
