The List (that started it all)



Written on a piece of paper that is falling apart at the folds is My List. I began it sometime around 5th grade (and was very upset when Mandy Moore took my idea in A Walk to Remember) and rediscovered it in high school. I've been adding to it ever since. =) I have quite aways to go, but as we all know, "Happiness is a journey - not a destination." Besides, if I finish everything on my list of what I want to do before I die, what do I have left to live for!?
