Description

This list, composed by Lauren Sado, lists school projects the author needs to complete and people she needs to contact. About half of the items are crossed off.

The submitter provided the following about the artifact’s history: This was a to-do list I made for myself to get things done over the weekend. It has a list of tasks that needed to be done that week as well as before the start of summer. It also has some notes of other things I needed to pick up for projects I had coming up and who I needed to contact. I like to make to-do lists because it keeps all of my thoughts organized and it’s always more satisfying when you can cross out something you’ve finished on paper.
