Japan

Updated 07th January 2012!

 

I found this site a while back and thought the idea was great - but didn't do anything at the time. Now I came across it again, and thought why not? I've been looking for a direction to my life, and it is known to me that I work best towards goals.

 

So here's my list. I will be updating it here, and blogging about special reached goals. I think I'll add a link to the side bar for this, so one can easily find it, and also add a "101" tag to the postings. So, but now the list:
