How I did it: My boyfriend explained it to me ahead of time and then we drove around the parking lot a few times practicing shifting gears and then I just hit the road. I had a few scary moments when the car died or I grinded the gears but he was very patient and eventually I mostly got the hang of it. I was really nervous and was kind of freaking out the whole time but I am very proud of myself now and I'm glad that I have this skill Read how I did it…
How I did it: I have done this on a couple of occasions and its always nice to do nothing but sleep all day. Quite a refreshing experience but only if you have nothing that you need to be doing. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I just looked through lots of pictures of hot guys and then ranked them all in order of who was the hottest. Then I found the best picture I could for each of them and put them all into a list. After I finished I had to go back and put in two more people that I had forgotten to include so all in all the list had 45 at the end. I may have to make more additions too as time goes by.

Well the dog kind of ate my DVD player so now I have a lot of down time when previously I was watching movies. So I went to the library and got the first four books on the list and so far have finished two and am part way through with the third one. I read The Adventures of Augie March which I thought was good although it took me a while to get through it. Then I read Animal Farm which took me only a couple of hours but which was totally brilliant in every way. The final commandment of the pigs that read “All animals are equal. But some animals are more equal than others,” could be considered one of the greatest lines written about politics as far as I am concerned. Now I am reading An American Tragedy which I am finding very well written and engaging.
