hesaki Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 Updated 2/14/16 - It has been a long ass time since I looked at this thing. Had forgotten some of them, but the list stands.

Severynn Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 This list is awesome! I should make one too; to stay on track, get things done and keep my goals in mind whenever I lack motivation Quote Severynn - Lvl 1 Vrykul RebelCurrent Challenge | Instagram | MyFitnessPal | Pinterest"What is the point of being alive if you don't at leasttry to do something remarkable?" -John Green Link to comment
hesaki Posted October 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 It really does help. At the very minimum, you have it all listed out somewhere, and other awesome people may stop by to give you some encouraging words about some of them. And in case you have trouble remembering all of it Quote Link to comment
hesaki Posted October 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Epic quest update! Over the weekend, I was at the beach for a wedding. While we were all outside enjoying some Vitamin D, I managed to walk out into the water, waist deep! First time I've ever done that. I was very nervous about it, but everyone was so supportive. One of my lovely lady friends even held my hand, haha. Progress! 3 Quote Link to comment
