365 things in 365 days

Over the next 365 days, I will be attempting to complete 365 of the things on a list I made. This is to help motivate me to try and experience new things, do things that I find enjoyable, learn new things, and to overall not feel like I'm in such a rut.

In this blog I will document my progress, success, and failures as I attempt to do one of these things everyday. Every day I will pick one thing and focus on it. On these days, I may accomplish some of the other things on my list, but I will still reserve a day specifically for those. 

I won't update the blog every single day, sometimes I will be out of town for a week or more, but I will post the progress when I come back. Usually, this will be updated upon completing the task. I'll try to include pictures as often as possible!

Here is my list of 365 things, sorted in to certain categories. They are in no particular order. I hope you have fun during this adventure with me!
