How I did it: I got craft paper at the BigLots (good price!) and pictures I'd been saving out of magazines. I find quotes online, in books, all over the place and keep copies of them. Then I put pictures and quotes together and leave them on shelves at the public library. Read how I did it…
How I did it: 1. Must have bachelors or extensive experience in applicable field (ask PC!)2. Go to the website and fill out the application - you need recommendations from employers and friends.3. Get all the medical stuff done. Try not to move and/or cancel your health insurance until AFTER this step (it's a rather big bummer paying for everything).4. Make some personal goals for yourself, and write them down.5. Go.6. Try to judge the experience… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I stopped biting my nails off and on for several years, managing to go for longer and longer periods.For years people told me to, and I didn't personally see the need. Then, one day, I was ready - I saw how nice nails looked on other people and I wanted that for myself. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I just kept returning to it again and again in quiet moments. I was reading like five other books at the same time. Thoreau spends a lot of time describing nature and being a little, well, full of himself. He doesn't make a lot of important points until the last chapter, I felt.

I stopped.Occasionally I will sample a taste, but I turn down drinks regularly. People accuse me of being moralistic, but I just don't like the w… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I've been getting rid of things for years now, lots of donations to thrift stores, and things that are just not thrift store worthy I leave out on corners of streets for passers-by. It makes it easier for me to move and travel, which are big goals in my life. It also creates space for new things to come to me. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I looked under the sofa, I walked halfway around the world, I joined an NGO, I paid my taxes - really, I lived my life. And when love was ready, it found me. I've fallen in love five times, and each time has been a little different. I fell in love in July with someone I'd known for nearly two years - he'd liked me the whole time. I had to learn to see myself as amazing, because he was amazing. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I knew I wanted a tattoo for years, but deciding on a design took a little longer. I chose something that relates to my childhood as well as to who I am now, and it has an aesthetic beauty as well as an individual symbolism.I asked a friend to recommend an artist, and I liked him and he did a great job.
