The List

You may or may not know this about me, but I love making lists. I make grocery lists, daily to-do lists, clothing wish lists, bills to pay this month lists... you get the idea. The paper industry has made some pretty pennies from all the note pads I’ve bought in my lifetime!

AND, as I’m adjusting to Cambridge and graduate school life, I thought of yet another:

THE “What I Want To Accomplish While I Am Here” LIST

As I sat with these thoughts, I not only came up with things I want to accomplish while attending Harvard, but I went ahead and wrote out even the most ridiculous wants that came to mind (making snow angels on Harvard Yard is one of them).

Do you have any ongoing lists? A bucket list of sorts for just your WANTS? If so, I’d love to hear about them. And if you’ve done incredible things on the East Coast/Boston area, please comment so that I can add it to THE LIST.
