I’ve had this sitting in my ‘drafts’ for a few days now. But we all know I’m not that patient.
Sorry, in advance, if this is a boring post for anyone else (and if so, just leave now and I’ll see you tomorrow for our regularly scheduled debauchery). However, I happen to be super stoked about the idea, the list, the challenge, etc and I wanted to share it all with you, my wonderful bloggy friends.
So without further adieu, I give you…

Posted my list the other day but am not officially starting until the 1st. Woo!
Love this List!
We have alot of the same stuff in "store" for 2009!
:) all positive stuff!
xo
That's a great idea! I want a list, I'm going to start thinking about making one. :)
Those are some good list, good luck on that :)
Wow! I've been wanting to do this but wasn't sure how I wanted to do it. Good luck on achieving all those things!
That is QUITE the list!!! Good luck, chica! I think its all great stuff!
Great list! Good luck!
Very fun! I'm going to try this out.
002. If you are goin to take a multivitamin, make sure you purchase it from a Natural Foods Health Store. Most multi-vitamins that you purchase at Walgreens or CVS are garbage. (I could share articles if you are interested - otherwise I will spare you.--just trust me) What I do, is drink a fresh organic fruit smoothie with soy milk instead of a multi-vitamin. I feel amazing.
011. I used to take Tae-Kwon-Do and wish I could find time in my schedule to do it again....
014. I LOVE that you will be recycling! it is so rewarding! i despise people that do not recycle. it's practically effortless
021. again, rewarding. feels so good when you walk in to the grocery store with re-usable bags. AND it's trendy.
038. I jhust did fondue for the first time not too long ago... it was ok. good experience.
039. awwwwww
048. DO IT. will change your life. I have a list of apps. you need when the time is right.
056. A good place to start is e-bay. you can find a lot of original artwork from starving artists at decent prices.
062. I heart gardens.
074. :::sighs:::
Phew... quite the list. Go you!! Best of luck!
I'd read it but I'm too lazy. I spotted the words "wine tasting" and "Italy". I like that goal.
Awesome! We have a lot of things in common so we should definitely be list buddies and encourage each other!:)
WOW!! what a list...I should do the same thing. Looks like your going to be busy. ENJOY getting everything done...Ballroom dancing your going to love. (been doing that for 3 yrs)
e. wiggle - yea i saw it and you've got some great stuff on there too, like the cummer museum exhibits!! those are fun. you should definitely knock those off easily!
miss anne - thanks. i'm hoping that i got all the negative stuff outta the way last year and this year will be nothing but positive...here's hopin'.
wendy - DO IT!! it's so fun and inspiring!
insomniac lolita - thanks so much! :]
jessica - thanks, you should definitely try it. takes a little time to sit down and really think what you wanna accomplish but i think it will be worth it in the end.
scarlett - thank you so much. i know some of them are a bit lofty but considering that i have close to 3 years to do it all, i don't see why i shouldn't try to do what i've always wanted to do, ya know?
texas belle - thank ya! :]
book worm - do it and let me know when you post it so i can check it out!
bird - omg. you are seriously the greatest. i would love if you could share some of those articles on vitamins. i don't pretend to really know much about which ones are quality and which ones are shit. i'd really love your help. and the same with the iphone apps. i will definitely hit you up for some suggestions in that arena as soon i get one. and i'm excited to start recycling again too. i feel like such a slob not doing it.
princess pointful - thank ya, ma'am!
bella - haha i do too.
shannon - i know right!! i must admit...i got a couple ideas off of your list because they were just so great. what can i say? great minds think alike.
leah - you should! what kind of ballroom dancing do you do???
yay you got your list up...i might have to take some of yours when I start a new list...right now i'm just trying to knock the rest of mine out.
