The Complete List


This is my last summer before college and I want to make the most of it. So, after a little internet research I found a list of 100 things to do before leaving for college. I changed a few things and came up with 100 random but awesome things to do before I leave for MS. My friends Grace and Jasmine have decided to attempt this adventure along with me and anyone else who wants to come along is welcome.
