101 in 1001 Update #2

I honestly cannot believe that it's been a full year since I posted my 101 in 101 list. I have gotten quite a few of my 101 items done (22 of them to be exact) with many more in progress. When I originally posted my list, I decided that I was going to post updates for y'all every six months of my progress- what tasks I've completed, which ones are in progress, and which ones I want to complete in the next six months. I posted my first 101 in 1001 update post last July, making this the second 101 in 1001 update!

The next 101 in 1001 update will be in July and it's crazy to think how different my life will be then as I will have graduated high school and I will know what college I'm heading to in the fall! These next few months will be very exciting and full of change (be sure to follow along my life recaps via the My Chic Week series) and hopefully I'll be able to cross some more items off of my list as well.

A snap from my trip to Charleston last spring- clearly I'm missing warm weather!
