I’ve just got a lovely red fabric from a secondhand shop, and now I need that golden lace around the sleeves and neck.

How I did it: I've always had complicated relationship with my sister. She thought of me like the spoiled little sister that she is obligated to look after. But I managed to show her how much I care for her and that I am a responsible person she could rely on. Now we spend a lot of time together, we talk more, and it's wonderful! Read how I did it…
How I did it: As you know absinthe is illegal in most countries, so finding the"real" thing is quite a difficult task. But still, the absinthe sold in most shops is a great way to enjoy something very similar to it. We bought a bottle of french absinthe and we had a lot of fun drinking it, although we didn't see any green fairies. Read how I did it…

Learning Japanese is my dream since I was 12, but somehow I always thought it’s imposible. Now I am finally going to do it. :)
And my familly and friends are very supportive. Mum and Dad could give me the money, but I want to save them myself, and they sayed there was a jar of coins which noone uses lying around the house. I’ve got some coins myself, and I’ll go to the bank to make them cash.
Progress: I’ve saved 1/3 of the needed money.
I’ve borrowed my grandma’s sewing machine and she teached me how to do the basic stuff. Now I have some ideas in my head, and I have to draw them and make a pattern. Then I’ll shop for materials and start sewing. :)
