I'm doing 28 things
I really need to do this. Although I am managing with my money, I feel I am not using it very effectively. Well, I know this as I am living in my overdraft constantly. I am going to track my money for a month, then budget using the results. Watch this space!

How I did it
It made me
clever 
How I did it: It comes naturally to be honest. I have always read from the first moments I can remember, and feel odd if I haven't read anything for a day or so. I read every day, at least 30 pages. I always say I will finish a chapter before I go to sleep at night, and often end up reading two or three (and consequently waking up shattered!). Read how I did it…
It made me
very happy!
How I did it: I have now left uni for the last time (hopefully!) and have a steady job in London. I have lots of debt, but I am working towards paying that off and have not had to ask for any handouts for 6 months now. After spending a long time planning my budget out and making sure I stick to it, I am ensuring I never have to ask for handouts again, and am even aiming to help my mum pay off some of her debts too.

It’s only a movie, I don’t see the big deal! It’s a classic so I would recommend that you find it and watch it and appreciate it for what it is, and remember the time it was made in etc. Don’t try to force modern values or ideals onto the film as it will take away from the key messages of the plot and characters.
Well, I had hoped to get this done by my niece’s 1st birthday, which was 27th July. Never mind! I’m defo going to have it done in a few months time for when I next go home.
