I’ve always wanted to be “car smart”, simply because I think it’d be a little surprising for me to know. I’m not really the type of person you’d except that from.
And obviously I’d also like to be able take care of myself if it’s ever necessary.

How I did it: I'd always wanted to smoke, and I knew it was bad for me and all, but it was just something I wanted to do. So I asked one of my smoker friends for a ciggarette. Admittedly, I couldn't light it on my own so I asked him to do it. I inhale and don't ever cough, and apparently that makes me a born smoker. I do smoke fairly regularly now. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Note: I don't do this to lose weight.I simply don't shove food into my face. End of story. I'm a bit of a masochist, and I enjoy pushing my body to it's limits. I really enjoy the pain, so I do periodic fastings. It's not to lose weight, in fact the only time I've done one of my seven day fasts to lose weight, I wanted to die and gave up after five days. I don't know, I realize the risks, etc. But it's something that I enjoy. Read how I did it…
How I did it: It may have just been the fact that I had to stand in a line for upwards of five hours, or the sun poisoning, or that I was near starvation, but it wasn't all that great to me. It was rather dull. The thing isn't even that big, you could go up inside it but it was just a bunch of disintegrating brown and green metal and wooden beams. The "museum" inside was pointless. It just seemed very overdone. Read how I did it…
I’ve always wanted to be “car smart”, simply because I think it’d be a little surprising for me to know. I’m not really the type of person you’d except that from.
And obviously I’d also like to be able take care of myself if it’s ever necessary.
A month or so ago I drove past a man being arrested in the middle of the road. I don’t know anything about him or what he did, but he looked so ashamed. Just completely striped of dignity. And it just really touched me. Ever since then, I decided that I want to help criminals,. I’m not sure how, but for me it’s going to start with visiting a prison.
I’ve always wanted to feel universal, for lack of a better word. Languages have always intrigued me. I’m really hoping that I can stick to this goal, as I often flake out on long term things.
