How I did it: This actually took me about an hour. & that was with me being picky. I didn't choose things I merely liked. I picked things that made me actually smile when I thought of them.Also, I barred certain things from the list, like money and sex. Those things make EVERYONE happy. I wanted things more specific to me. It was slow going at certain moments, but at others they just flew out of me. Without further ado...here we go:1… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I was riding my horse & a piece of fencing snagged & went through my jeans and into my right shin. Tried to finish up and the pain was pretty nagging. The piece was in pretty far so I thought it best to leave it to the 'professionals' to remove it. Went to the express care and after 15 minutes of cutting into and digging around in my leg, I was out-fitted with my very first stitches. They always felt like they were pulling when I … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I can't really say how I did it. I can't even tell you how or why it started either. It just sort of was. As cliche as it sounds I really just remember 'waking up' one day and thinking, 'oh my god... Who the hell am I and what the hell am I doing?'That pretty much just scared me. I didn't like anything about my current situation or where it would take me. I didn't like that I didn't even know it was happening. I was ashamed… Read how I did it…
How I did it: The hardest thing for me about quitting wasn't the nicotine. It was the actual physical habit of smoking. I didn't like that it was damaging my health and my wallet. A pack of reds where I'm at is over $6.00! So I solidly made the decision to quit one day and told myself after this pack, I'm done. I did it cold turkey. It did suck and I was a TOTAL biotch for about a week. But it … Read how I did it…
How I did it: Went to visit my family one weekend and brought some dye with me. Me and my sis had both decided on our own to dye our hair black and figured we'd do it together as a sister bonding thing. Plus she said if we did it together we'd match and nobody'd suspect we dyed it. :) We tried to do it ourselves, but needed mom's assistance to get it even since we were laughing hysterically and getting blue spots here, there and e… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I called. I made an appointment. I showed up to said appointment, and let the stylist cut my hair. It really is that simple. But I never would have done it if I didn't trust the stylist and the salon I go to. Until last year, I'd never even had side bangs, so my long/shaggy ones are a total first and a big change. But I'd been thinking about getting them for a while and was in a good frame of mind so I figured it … Read how I did it…
How I did it: Every year(since I've been 18 that is..) I get a tattoo from an awesome local artist who's done all but the crappy one of my tattoos. For my 4th tattoo, I got some Pearl Jam Lyrics down my left ribs as a Xmas present to myself. Now first off, anyone who tells you that the pain is completely excruciating is full of crap. It felt no different than the pain I had with my first three( inside of heel, spine & back side of the bottom o… Read how I did it…
How I did it: My family vacationed there one summer, it ruined all subsequent beach vacations in Maryland's cloudy and crowded Ocean City. The water was crystal clear and the prettiest blue you can imagine. You could walk out up past your chest and see fish swimming right next to you! Completely amazing. The locals were super friendly, especially Monty, a very special and hilarious cab driver. Going to the Bahamas definitely sparked my interest in goin… Read how I did it…
How I did it: *Start with your dog in a sit or stand position facing you.*Hold a treat in front of your dog's nose, making it follow the treat in a circle while giving the command, 'Spin'.*Once the circle is complete give the dog the treat and praise(something like 'Good Spin!' )*Repeat only a few times each day, keep the sessions short and fun!*Each time, try moving the treat farther away from your dog but still using the same circular motion with you… Read how I did it…
How I did it: My boyfriend's parents had a 9 year old Beagle named Blue that lived outside because he couldn't be potty trained. Alas, what can I say, I love challenges. Plus how could I NOT take in this old hound that still had so much puppy left in him when he clearly needed to be spoiled? So I brought home this dirty old Beagle & I cleaned him up and that night he fell asleep cuddled up with me on the couch with his head on m… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Randomly I woke up one saturday and decided, 'hey, i think i'll go on a fast for seven days!' I looked up the different kinds and the benefits and risks and decided on a 'juice cleanse'. Basically I only drank clear juices and water for seven days. Only stuff like apple juice, grape juice, cranberry juice, etc. No pulp, no fizzies, no soda, NO FOOD! It was super hard the first day, torture. I'm a total food lover. I've never met a cookie … Read how I did it…
How I did it: After completing my long awaited cross country roadtrip, I got my first tattoo to celebrate/commemorate. I found a shop through a guy my boyfriend worked with. His uncle owned it and had done his sleeves and they were well done. We went to the shop as a walk-in and the guy's uncle had just left. So we had this MUCH less experienced tattooist do my simple little design. Well, needless to say, my tattoo isn' t the quality it should be. But … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I read a book about roadtrippin' when I was 12 and decided about 1/4 of the way through it that this was definitely something that i wanted to experience. A year AFTER graduating when I was finally 18yrs old I kicked up some hometown dust and hit the road with my boyfriend/best friend/road warrior. We went from one coast to the other, up from Baltimore across Ohio, Illinois, and down into good ol' Texas, we spent our 3 year anniversary in… Read how I did it…
