How I did it
How to buy a new laptop
It took me
2 months
It made me
Laptop nerdy!

How I did it: I put huge chunks of my paychecks away. For all of the time that I'd wanted a new laptop, I thought it had to be this drawn out savings plan type of deal. It actually wasn't that way at all. I realized I had some extra money, I put it away and went to shop for a laptop.I went to Best Buy. The people there are fairly average, not very sales competitive (or so it seems to me), but they are knowledgable and willing to help! Not to mention Be… Read how I did it…

How to pay off my loan
It took me
1 year
It made me
Free!

How I did it: I paid my grandpa every month for a loan he'd given me for some county-related dues that got me out of a bind.I made sure to write a check already every month, as if it were like changing my underwear or brushing my teeth -- it's just something you DO. Not something you compromise. Read how I did it…

How to drink water all day
It took me
1 day
It made me
ALMOST DIE

How I did it: I drank about a gallon of water from about 8am-7pm a couple weeks ago.I went to dinner with my mom around 7pm, and went to the gym right after.I wasn't feeling well so I thought that water would help this...(WRONG).At the gym, every 30 minutes I drank a big bottle of water. In about 1 1/2 hours I drank 2 more gallons of water.My arms started to swell, I felt nauseas, had diarrhea because of it and went home. I thought maybe I needed to sl… Read how I did it…

stop pulling my hair (read all 2 entries…)
Progress! 13 months ago

About 2 weeks ago I found a girl on youtube who was talking about God, and handing over issues to Him. Whether it’s pulling, smoking, eating disorders, addiction, etc. I’ve never found myself to be a religious person, but listening to this girl talk, I finally realized that hair pulling has been a DAILY issue with me for YEARS that I haven’t been able to stop on my own. I can’t count how many times I’ve tried to “stop” pulling. So that day about 2 weeks ago when I saw her video I told myself, “I give this to God.” It’s in His hands now. And I’m telling you I have not pulled! When my hand reaches up ultimately it’s ME who’s not pulling, but feeling like I’m giving the burden to God to help me through it is SOOO liberating!! I had a bald spot in the back of my head 2 weeks ago and now it’s filling in. This is the LONGEST I’ve EVER gone without pulling. Maybe it’s needed to be a spiritual journey rather than a behavioral modification program for me.

Basically, I’m doing well :)

Shave my legs
I Did It!!!! 2 years ago

And the next day it rained…haha right?! April showers bring May flowers I guess…and now it’s just turned into another beauty maintenance routine. I think I’ll skip it for a few more months again and see if it’s worth it next time around…

live in the moment
Welllllll.... 2 years ago

It’s been a long time coming to this point, but these past few months have been amazing and I owe it to all of the healing I’ve been working on and recieving…and to being in the moment. I couldn’t have done it without my gradual spiritual healing. When I laugh…I laugh. I smile more. I am not so preoccupied during conversation. And it feels amazing!!
