About me

Mijn foto
My name is Harry, I live in the Netherlands and am a chemistry student. I came by the Day Zero Project a couple of months ago and decided to give it a go in 2011! Some goals are silly and others are harder. Some goals will most likely complete themselves over time and others have been "borrowed" from other participants on the Day Zero Project. Nevertheless I am trying to complete each and every one of the 101 goals on this list!

Last week I attended the Tsunacon anime convention. I went there in my Zero (from Code Geass) cosplay

An Update

I haven't forgotten about the day zero project already! On the contrary, I have been working on some goals, but I haven't finished any new ones.

I got the first quote for #91 and I have watched 2 films for #64. #91 is harder than it might seem, but that's because I don't want to look up quotes, I want to encounter them :)

Also, next week I am planning on buying the cookie for #37 and later this month I will be attending an anime convention in cosplay for #61

goal #87

This afternoon I was killing some time by playing robot unicorn attack and somehow I managed to get just over 100.000 points! 100.486 to be precise!

2 goals achieved already on the first day! (although the first one wasn't that hard, I didn't imagine to get this one anytime soon)

goal #4

The first goal to be completed is goal #4, which means I sent myself an email to arrive at september 28, 2013!
