It's 2011, my last year before I turn 30, and I am set on making this year a very meaningful year. So, with the help of my Navi 2010 & 2011 planners and Bo Sanchez's Soulfood, I have compiled 150 things to do for this year. A bucket list and a list of resolutions combined.
Will cross out items one-by-one. Hopefully, before the year ends, I will have accomplished a substantial amount. :) Whatever happens, I will do it with an open mind and an open heart.
I CANNOT WAIT TO GET STARTED. :)
