101 in 1001: Part One

Lately I've been noticing a trend on other blogs: lists of 101 things you want to do or accomplish in 1001 days (a little under 3 years).  The idea is that it's similar to a "Bucket List", but broken down into much more manageable chunks.  I've started making my list, but I'm not finished (hence the "Part One"); I won't start counting my 1001 days until I'm finished making my list.  A lot of these are things I hope to do while still in the UK, especially since I'll be so much closer to the countries I want to visit on my list.

The List: Part One

1. Blog regularly (already doing much better than I did on http://www.brookeonsafari.blogspot.com/!)
2. Visit 10 new states
3. Take a roadtrip
4. Publish an article in an academic journal
5. Work-out everyday for a month
6. Visit Ireland
7. Visit Iceland
8. Visit Russia
9. Visit Greece
10. Visit Romania
11. Drive through the English countryside
12. Stay in a supposedly "haunted" bed & breakfast
13. Visit my friend, Stephanie, in Guatemala
14. Go to church every Sunday for 3 months
15. Volutneer for Gamma Phi
16. Join one of my sorority's alumni groups
17. Visit other SEC schools
18. Go to a beach on the East Coast
19. Attend an NFL game (preferably the Falcons or Saints)
20. Skydive
21. Attend UA's 2012 season opener (vs. Michigan at Cowboys Stadium!)
22. Pay for the person in line behind me
23. Lose (and maintain) 20 lbs.
24. Make pasta and sauce from scratch
25. Volunteer for a literacy program
26. Spend New Year's Eve in New York City
27. Visit other Gamma Phi chapters
28. Put money into savings regularly
29. Visit Croatia
30. Visit Savannah, GA (hopefully during the Christmas season)
31. Make it through a haunted house (As much as I love Halloween and scary movies, I never go to the haunted houses; they make me so claustrophobic for some reason.)
32. Bake a cake/cupcakes from scratch
33. See Anne Frank's house
34. Join an Alabama alumni group
35. Join a book club
36. Start taking Spanish classes again
37. Finish my scrapbooks
38. Keep a prayer journal (like Aibileen in The Help)
39. Recycle
40. Try playing polo
41. Trying rowing

That's all I've got for now, but stayed tune for Part Two!
