How I did it: D organized it, sort of for his bday party. It was me, D, R, R, and A. It was super cool and fun! The first few times I has the hang of it. Apparently I'm a little "trigger happy" and would shoot right away. After a while, my shoulder really started to hurt. I would almsot be afraid to shoot, anticipating the kickback into my shoulder. It still kills right now. M, our instructor, suggested that next time i come, I use the "petite" shotgun… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Took a few weeks for some "me" time. My sister visited me the weekend after and I went back home this past weekend, so I got to hang out with people who love me. Finally, I jumped back on match and starting playing with people. I'm talking to several people right now and will probably meet at least a few of them in the coming weeks. It's a nice distraction and I feel very much like myself "playing" again. Read how I did it…
How I did it: So I walked into league Tuesday night and A, the team captain told me I got a patch! I've been wanting a patch since I started playing APA! It turns out I was the MVP for the Fall 2012 session, winning 71% of my games. This means I get entered into a tournament in a few weeks and could potentially win $500! Woo Hoo! So proud of myself that I got a patch! Read how I did it…
How I did it: So I met T a few weeks ago at First Break just shooting around. After playing with him twice he invited me to join his 9ball team. Even though it's pretty far away, I'll make the journey once a week to play. Well on Tuesday it was my first day on the team. I get there, and my name is for some reason not on the roster. My team wanted to play me, but they other team "didn't feel comfortable". So I sat there the entire match, kinda bored. We… Read how I did it…
How I did it: The move to Virginia has def made this goal come along much faster. I'm not teaching (yet) so I need to workout on my own. Then I go to classes, pick up some things from instructors, and hopefully it will aid me in developing into a better instructor. Read how I did it…
How I did it: So after my first day working 830 to 5 in my actual office, I'm counting this as complete. L was really great training me all day, but shes leaving in 2 months. I've really got to learn everything there is in these next few weeks. I believe things will come together, but right now it's a bit overwhelming. I'll be ok though. I'll be better that ok : ) Read how I did it…
How I did it: So last night was the first night I spent in my brand new big girl apartment in Virginia. My parents and I drove down on Friday, yesterday we spent the entire day putting my bed and room together, and now I'm here. The landlord is on her way so I can officially sign a lease and consider myself a grown up girl with her own apartment : ) Read how I did it…
How I did it: Well I'm attributing a lot of this to the start of summer. There's good produce availible, the hot weather makes eating heavy unappealing, and I took a break from working out, so I lost a little bit of mucsle mass, which is ok. Everyone needs to take a break even once in a while and I don'tg et that many chances. I didn't work TOO hard for it, but many poeple have been commenting on how skinny I've gotten, and I have been I think at least… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I've been waiting over a full year to do this! Last year my sister wasn't ready to parasail and we settled on jet skiing in OCean City. But this year I finally convinced her so we went on Monday. IT was a beautiful day for it, a little windy but actually not that bad. We picked the 600 foot line (as opposed to the 400 or 800). It didn't seem too high. Once oyu get that high it seems surreal and since it's mostly water underneath you, ther… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Worked really hard for two years. Passed all my classes. According to the commencement booklet, I graduated with a 4.0 gpa. Now I'mnot sure if I got an A in my stress management class, it may have been an A-. but the commencement booklet was already published. Still counts! Read how I did it…
How I did it: So regular people just don't start converastions with strangers, but it is so nice when they do. I've always found those converastions to be very special. IT takes some courage and thinking about it, and there's always the possibility the other person doesn't want to talk, which is ok, that's the worst that will happen. But the reward much outweighs the risk. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I've been saving up my money because I am graduating soon and don't have a job lined up. I do, however, get to work at my internship until the end of the fiscal year which is very helpful and I have 3 interviews lined up sofar. I know I will still have my aerobics classes that I can survive off of until I find my bog girl job. Read how I did it…
How I did it: So Thursday nigth at pool I realized that at times I have get to shoot for the 8 ball and I need something to mark my pockets with. First time I used a bag of popcorn (which did give me a win). Then Thursday night I was using M's ring but I felt bad running over to get it, then giving it back to him. So I like how he uses a ring because it's always on him. It's not like he has to run on over to his bag or purse and dig around for it. Plus… Read how I did it…
How I did it: So pretty much I was just more conscious of smiling. I remembered to do this often when I was at the gym or in the hallways of work. I'm not sure how it's really changed me, I'm sure it made some people happy when I smiled at them. Also, I'm sure it weirded some people out....we are very unfriendyl here in New England. Isn't it funny that I found myself mostly smiling at men.....uh attractive men. I need to get it in. Read how I did it…
How I did it: AHHHHHHH I hate when I write a genuine post and then 43 thigns deletes it! Ok let's try again:So I used my resume I had before I started graduate scool and added my internship and practicum experiences. I wanted my boss to look over it but he never got back to me so I had my advisor look at it. She had only a couple of things to say, but I updated and now I'm ready to submit. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Well I've been wanting to go to the custom built burger joint for a long long time. I just never got around to it. I don't like inviting people to restaurants that I've never been to because I don't know if they will be good. I fact, I tried to go once by myself but realized it was more of a sitdown place than I thought. Finally I got my sister to go with me today. It was good. the 50/50 fries ad sweet potato fries were really delicious. … Read how I did it…
How I did it: Well G asked me weeks ago to go with him. I was nervous but it ended up being s a great night. It was so much fun hanging out with all those Marines. I def didn't mind being the only girl at my table. I looked so pretty! and it was wonderful to experience that! Even getting a flat tire on the way home could have been worse. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Ever since that weekend in June when I realized that M and I are over, I have had this on my list. I did not want to just fool around with some random guy I hardly know anymore, but I did need to move on and stop keeping one foot in the J pool and the other foot in the M pool. Well I met G about two month ago and things are going well. We've been dating for a while, going out to dinner and watching tvd together. Last night after his anoyi… Read how I did it…
How I did it: So pretty much I had wanted to go to a fair sometime this fall. I love fairs and the Big E is the best one. It was a last minute decision to go today and even better is that J and S ended up meeting up with L, L and I. I had a fantastic time. Of course my whole goal of going was to eat the donut cheeseburger. S and I ate it at the same time, I'll have to find the pictures and ujpload it. IT was one of the highlights of a fantastic day! : ) Read how I did it…
How I did it: So I'm going through my 43 things list and realize that I have al the goal slots filled. Instead of deleting some I decided to just try the 5 minute plank to try to knock it off my list. So I just did it. Right now. This was the first time I even attempted a 5 minute plank and I did it. I am the frickin bomb! Read how I did it…
