In praise of the To Do List.

This week marked the end of an era here at 35 Brookline. After a brilliant start and a slow, but discernable decline, the To Do List is no more.

Some background to explain the To Do List:
-Each Monday night, members of the apartment would gather around the white board in the hallway and set out goals for all five members of the house.
-These goals included simple tasks (Brian gets his suit tailored) and more lofty accomplishments (Brian doesn't eat at Anna's Burritoria for an entire week... he didn't make it to Tuesday on that one.)
-At the end of the week, awards are give out for Best Week Ever! and of course Worst Week Ever!

It all started off as a revolution for 35 Brookline. But as the weeks passed there was less and less enthusiasm for the whole ordeal. And finally it was put to rest. But I'd just like to say that I thought it was absolutely awesome while it lasted. I feel that unique happenings/traditions such as this one make for a memorable year.
