300th Post!

I can't believe it's taken me this long to get to 300 posts! I've been blogging since 2005, (check out my first post!) and this is all I've got. ;) haha! Anyway, I thought it would be kind of cool to post interesting facts that have to do with the number 300. I found a list, but didn't check anywhere to see if they were accurate, but it's interesting anyway! :)
