Hi! I am a married 20 something in California. I came to the decision yesterday that I have been short on experiences in my life. This may have to do with the fact that I have no memories before I was about 10, so that there is 10 years of things that I have no memory of doing. I also tend to make a decision about something...and it stays that way for a long time.
For example:
I tell people that I don't like seafood. This is only partially true. The truth is that I have no memory EVER of eating ANY kind of seafood (shrimp, sushi, salmon, etc) I always pass on it at meals, but have no memory at all of eating any kind of sea food. It sorta freaks me out....something that I am going to attempt in 2012 is to try....all of the above.
So here are the rules:
In 2012 I will do 366 things that I have never done before. One for each day of the year, though some days may contain multiple new experiences. I will be providing a blog and story for each.
New recipes and new crafts do count on this adventure. However I cannot take a recipe that has been my favorite for years add a tablespoon of something different and call it a new recipe. The same goes for crafts....I can make new things on a regular basis, but no more of one of the same type of thing. (meaning I can make one scarf in a way I never had before....but not 366 different ways to make a scarf...same thing goes for things like altering t-shirts into cuteness)
Also regarding crafts, each craft counts as one. I can't spend 2 weeks working on the same project and count 14 different things from the one project.
I am really looking forward to this....and am making a promise to myself to attempt some things that I might otherwise NEVER attempt!
If something that has NEVER happened to me before happens one day that is something that counts, Example-When the neighbors cat randomly ran into my house a few weeks ago. That has never happened to me before, if this was my project at the time....that would count.
So here we go, I welcome your ideas on new things to try in 2012...anything reasonable will be considered....just keep in mind that I won't be doing anything extravagant like a trip to Europe.
I am looking forward to this....and thanks in advance to my amazing friends and family that are with me on this adventure! Remember-welcoming ideas of new things to do in 2012!
