How I did it: I signed up for driver's ed at one of the other high schools in town way back in January, but classes didn't start until March. I was dreading it, but when you live in a fairly rural place like I do, driving is pretty much necessary. The first drive we had was the first time I'd ever been behind a wheel, so I was pretty lost. But with a LOT of practice, I became one of the most improved driver's my teacher had ever had. I'm still not the … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I used to think this goal was the most important one on my list. It seemed like everyone I turned, there was another unfriendly face waiting to know my down. I felt alone and insecure. I felt empty. I thought that maybe, possibly, if I felt loved, I could break through all the hate. I couldn't find anyone who loved me then. All I could see were people who couldn't care less about me. I thought that I'd have to make them love me. But I was… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I just started reading it. At first it was hard for me to get in to, but eventually I started reading it on a more regular basis and reading more of it at a time. When I didn't leave gaps between when I read Pride & Prejudice, it got easier to follow the story line and I got hooked. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Well, I returned all the cheers I got. I checked neighborhood watch, and cheered people who got botd. I cheered people I'm subscribed too. I cheered random people. And before I knew it, I looked at how many cheers I'd given, and it was over 1,000. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I've seen movies in drive-in movie theaters many times. It was only forty-five miles away, and we went there as often as possible. It was only open during the summer (too much snow in winter), and was starting to fall apart. But I was still sad when I found out they were going to tear it down. Drive-in movie theaters are incredible places that remind us of the past. We shouldn't be destroying them. Read how I did it…
How I did it: My librarian recommended The Hunger Games to me, and once I started reading it, I couldn't stop. By the time I started to read it, Mockingjay had just come out, so I didn't have to wait too long for it. I would have finished in even less time, but unfortunately, everyone else loved the books as much as I did. Read how I did it…
How I did it: My 5th grade teacher was really big on crafts. So when we read this book that vaguely involved paper cranes, he taught us how to fold them. I learned a lot other of oragami in that class, but this is the one that really stuck with me. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I got this camera for my past birthday, as a present from my parents. It's not the best camera, but it takes pictures. That's really all you need. And I love it because now I don't have to buy film all the time. Read how I did it…
How I did it: My older sister was a fellow fan of Harry, so she generously lent me them. I read non-stop for weeks, then had to wait for a month or so to get the last one. But I loved it all the same. I can't wait for the next movie! Read how I did it…
