101 in 1001, 5000 questions, 100 things and more to go

101 things to do in 1001 days

I've come across this meme while browsing some random websites on this one. I found the idea really inspiring - keeping track of your own goals is a big step towards achieving them (really! Writing down my New Year's resolutions relps a lot), so a list may be a good idea. Posting it online would only make me more motivated, right?
