Happy New Year!!
So, this post will be a little bit different from what I usually write about, as this has absolutely nothing to do with make up! I've decided to start the Day Zero Project, which is completing 101 tasks in 1001 days (2.75 years).
Since it's the 1st January today, I thought today would be the best day to start. Anyway, I've decided to do this to improve myself and also it's an incentive to save some money (task 29). I love making lists, so having a super long one that I can tick off will just give me a massive feeling of satisfaction. Without further ado, here is my list!

So obviously, a lot of these goals are quite long term and I will be 18 when I finish this so I have plenty of time to attempt some of the things that are more out of reach at the moment. I won't make a regular feature out of this, but if I manage to cross something big off the list, I will just add a little update into the end of a post. At the end of the 1001 days, I will let you know how I did!
Are any of you taking this challenge at the moment? Or do any of you want to start?
