AWESOME!!!!! :D I am so thrilled you're playing & your list looks great. I can hardly wait to see you checkin' things off!!! :D
YAY! You completed closing your bank account & opening a new one! I know you've been meaning to do that for AGES!
Wow! I am impressed! Your list is nicely varied and also ambitious. I love that you included book crossing and good reads!
I hope you enjoy the Bikram's - it was not my favorite by a long shot, but so many people absolutely love it.
You have a great list as well! :)
I love how you have so many yoga goals. My friend and I recently started attending yoga classes at our campus rec center and really enjoy it. You seem super knowledgable and any suggestions/resources you know of would be awesome!
Give me some warning when you get around to #65 ... maybe I'll have enough stuff to add, bring over my own table, and hang out with you! :D
Thanks for commenting on my list. I take some of these things for granted and I'm not getting younger so having this list is a reminder for me to actually DO IT!! I like your goals listed under household, relationships and health. It definitely inspired me to add some to my list to finish it off... hehe... Good luck!
I did it!!! I made my list.

Wow! Looks like you have a great start on your list! I hope you accomplish all your goals. I can't believe how motivated I've been to work on the items on my list since I've started!
Thanks for checking out my list!

Thanks for looking at my list, yours looks great, good luck with all of it, especially living greener, must be hard!

Hey, Thanks for your comment.
I hope, free hugs will be fun. I want to do it with a friend of mine, who also does this 101 things stuff. We're both like very weird...
I don't want to do an IQ-test online, cause I had a lot of bad experience with that and I want to do that very professionally. I already did a test 3 years ago, and I just want to know, wether there's a change... and also I can study in germany 1 year for free, if I get an IQ higher than 130, and therefore I can't do it online, but thanks anyway.
Geocaching is a really funny game. It started I think in the 19th century, when a person decided, you should be able to proof, you climed a mountain or something. and now there are lots of boxes anywhere in the world. You can find them via GPS, the coordinates you can look up on geocaching.com there are hundreds of thousands in the world and its very funny to search and find them. It's free, so just try it. I love it.
Good luck with your list!
I just saw, you do Bookcrossing. Geocaching is quite similar, but you find boxes and just exchange something, instead of taking it. You can put something in and take something out. actually bookcrossing and geocaching are nearly the same. And both fun.
Thanks for your comment on my list.
Yours has some great stuff on it. Yay1 for yoga!
Good luck.
:D
hi kimz! thanks for visiting and commenting on my list. yours looks good and you're ticking them off quite nicely too. :D
bibimbap, can be translated as mixed rice, is a Korean dish. it's very healthy and delicious with veggies, meat, rice and a special red pepper sauce. i'll post a picture of mine as soon as i can get them uploaded. :D
i'll help you with #34 and i checked it on merriam webster: repertoire. from late latin via french, which explains why its pronunciation doesn't match the spelling. :)
good luck on the rest of your list.
Hi Kim,
Nice list! I particularly like your yoga goals... most of the stuff you mention I don't know at all, e.g. I don't know what 'raja yoga' or 'karma yoga' is, and with 'bikram' I just have a vague idea. But they all sound very interesting!
Loads of good luck wishes from me, I'll be following your journey.

Great list! i'm inspired to tweak a few of my goals. For your #99, i found a great site that may help you: here
It has a bunch of tips for going green. :)
I *love* that your good deeds section is Karma Yoga; that's such a beautiful thing. : ) A wonderful list!
Thanks for visiting my list (kaths101.blogspot.com - I don't have it listed on my profile so family members can't see what I'm working on for them)!
I really enjoyed reading your list. I haven't done Bikram Yoga per se, but really enjoyed a class I took that heated the room to about 95 degrees for our practice. I'll be interested to hear what you think about the real thing.
I really like #98. I live next to a highway, and every Sunday morning I see lots of trash from Saturday night's joyriders who like to throw out their beer bottles and cigarette butts. I think I'll add an alternate task to clean the grassy area next to the highway (as best as I can) every Sunday for one month.
Nice list! Thanks for visiting mine! I see you are big into yoga... that's something I'd love to try... wonder if I should make my list 102 in 1001... lol
Amazing how writing these things down makes you want to do them!!
Good Luck!
