How I did it: I couldn't keep up with it for years, but since I moved in with my boyfriend this January, and I do both of our laundry (read as he works three jobs and I only work one with school), it keeps me motivated since I know someone I care for depends on me. It wasn't even something he asked for-- I just started doing at my part to take care of both of us. In fact, there was a week I didn't need to do his at all, and I couldn't even budge to do … Read how I did it…
How I did it: First of all, I really needed to do since I'm applying for art schools. I gathered up my art and took digital photos of them. Then I picked out my best photos of my best art and took it to walmart to get prints made. Then I stuck them in the portfolio book I had for the longest time just for this. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I had been thinking about it a lot these past two years, especially reading about physics. I've come to find that, maybe it's best to just accept that everything out there is theories. People have been trying to figure out for years. There may come a time when we'll stumble upon it and it's nice to think about, but at the same time, I'm going to go and enjoy my life and stop wasting what time I have fretting over reality. Our brain plays … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I had noticed that something horrible was happening: I was getting so concerned with school and such that I hadn't been drawing near as much as I was supposed to. Now, I'm the type that if I don't draw, my mental health will wane... a lot. And during that dry period my pictures got worse and worse. Nothing came out right and everything was disproportional. So I went out and got a sketch book plus some canvas paper and watercolor paper. No… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I resolved to drink more water and kept a water bottle with me at all times, pretty much. After I learned about plasticides being able to get into water, I got an aluminum water bottle and it's fantastic. Read how I did it…
How I did it: This may seem a little dumb writing a How to Smile Everyday, but not so when you think about it.At first, I did have to consciously think about it. But after a while, I got to where I could smile pretty consistently. Read how I did it…
How I did it: There's a contest my teacher had been bugging me about, so I decided, y'know what? I'm gonna do it. So I sat down and did it. There's really not a lot to say. I made the picture and got is photocopied, then filled out the appropriate information on the back and am going to send it in ASAP. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I've season tickets to the local ballet for about 3-4 seasons, and I have quite a respect for ballet dancers, especially those that can do a very firm en pointe technique. I also watched the ARTS channel on my satellite, and I also listen to opera quite a bit (their voices are so powerful!). I don't get to go to theatres all that often, but when I do, I almost always have a good time. As for visual arts and music art with instruments, I d… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Just forget about it. If you get self-conscious, Then go ahead and shave. Personally, I found I usually wore knee highs or pants anyway, so what was the point of shaving my legs to impress people that would never see them anyway. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I just started writing in my online journal every few days, and it's actually quite amazing. I've been writing in it regularly for about a year and a half and it's very handy for helping me figure out problems, or when I look back, see how much I've changed (and forcing myself to learn to accept a few things). Read how I did it…
How I did it: It really wasn't all that hard for me to actually dance since I dance all the time and I used to live the ghetto part of town with a part of my Hispanic step-family. I know it sounds like I'm stereotyping, but it's true. Otherwise I probably would have never watched all those music videos. But actually dancing in front of people was a gradual thing. Eventually, it built up to actually going to a school dance and now people think I dance s… Read how I did it…
