The Beginning

There probably needs to be a little more explanation for this...

I noticed that my friends Aaron and Alicia both made lists of things to accomplish in 2010. I decided it would be a great idea to follow in their footsteps. For one, I've been trying to keep a consistent and interesting blog for the past 3 years and have failed miserably.

Anyways....
My name is Bekky and I am freshman at Ohio University. Hopefully this list will push me to branch out more during my college experience. So far I have 72 things to accomplish in 2010, some small, some big, some bigger. It is two months in to the new year so...
