FINALLY able to land myself a job that’s full time, so I’m finally breaking the $1000 a month wall!! (depressing, I know). I’m ticked that it took this long, but at least it happened at all. If all goes well, I should be in the clear in a matter of a couple months.

How I did it: My teeth weren't super gross looking, but you could tell in pictures they were a little dingy. I tried the Arm and Hammer whitening booster ages ago. It had mixed reviews, but it was cheap so I tried it anyway. I kept a photographic record and diary to give my impressions and everything. I didn't see much of a change, but it wasn't so big of a deal. I'm now using the 14 day Crest White Strips Classic, as I can't bring myself to spend 4… Read how I did it…
How I did it: In 1998 I got to see Beauty and the Beast while on a trip to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade with my school's marching band.Then a year to two later I got to see Les Miserables (?) which was my favorite soundtrack at the time. It was nice to see the actions that accompanied the lyrics, and the various 'stage magic'. Read how I did it…
How I did it: It was during marching band practice my senior year. At the very end of the day, we were supposed to perform a drill/technique game, like military simon says. Just as we set up to start, it started POURING rain. Everyone scrambled inside to put their instruments away and stay dry. A friend of mine and myself just put our stuff under the school porch and ran around dancing like idiots. We hated drill down, and it was the last time we'd hav… Read how I did it…

I’m doing it. I’m not sure how, but I am. A few weeks ago I was having intestinal problems – painful bloating, gas, etc. They’ve actually been steadily increasing over a few months, and had suddenly gotten bad. I mean to the point that I wasn’t ever hungry. It was so bad I was getting bloated from eating the smallest amount of food, I mean within 2-3 bites I’d be down for the count.
So I switched up my diet to include more probiotic foods, like yogurt and bananas, and pickles(health food? It’s true!). I also included a couple glasses of Metamucil and within days my insides got a complete overhaul. Since then I haven’t had gas or bloating problems, and I’ve been able to make it 4 out of 5 nights without getting up in the middle of the night. I don’t know if these things are related or not, but this is the update.
