101 things to do in 1001 days?!?!

I've toyed with the idea of completing a '101 things to do in 1001 days' list and work through it. my start date is scheduled for 01.09.10 and is due to end on 29.05.13. Plenty of time to do lots of things.
The problem being at the moment that I've struggling to find things to fill my list. I've managed to get 90 so far but am stuck for the last 10 or so.
