I would like to start wearing perfume. I like the idea of not just looking nice but smelling nice. Not something overpowering but something that people will notice and like. Choosing one is going to be difficult because what you smell in the magazines does not smell like what is in the bottle. I am not really sure of what I want. I know I don’t want a lot of floral and gardinia makes me ill. I plan on going to the store next weekend and having the salesperson help me. Even better my friend says she will buy the perfume for me as a christmas present!

How I did it: You can go to the Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park and see the crater of Kilauea. This is cool because you see steam coming up from the crater, but most of the cold lava flow is blocked off and forest has grown on it and as you drive by you see steam coming out of the ground. This is from vents in the ground. To walk on cold lava go closer the the coast. All the rocks by the beaches are old lava flows. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I went on a tour of Hawaii and this was one of the things we did. I picked the tour because this was one of the many things I wanted to do in Hawaii. Everyone I talked to that has been has said this was a must. Before you are taken out to the memorial you are shown a short film which has acutal footage. This is still an active military base so you are taken out by navy personel. Coming up to the memorial I was in awe. The … Read how I did it…
How I did it: After printing out which pictures I wanted to label I tried several different pens. I had read that Gel pens were the best for writing on photos but I found that they smear and one did not dry,even 24 hours later. I wrote on a few with ball point pen but I soon found writing on all of them very tiring. What I did is I typed up all of the descriptions on a word document and then taped that to the back of the photo. I might sugges… Read how I did it…

I was so tired coming home friday night. I was hungry, and there really was nothing in the fridge that could be made into a quick meal, other than left over stew and I draw the line at eating the same meal 4 times. So we went through a drive through. It was ok, I only ate enough to satisfy my hunger which was maybe half of the burger and the fries. It was ok but this is something that is going to happen less and less because I felt it the next day. So I have slipped this month but the way I see this, it is a learning experiance
I have had some Diet Coke but not a lot. I went out to lunch/movie with friends and had one with lunch but not at the movie. The only time during the week that I have had any was on a really bad day. I have a 12 oz can but I still wanted more so I got a 20 oz bottle. That was too much. It is nice to see that I am lowering the amount. I am also noticing that it taste a lot like regular coke. Yuck! Because of the amount I drank before I think I became used to the taste.
A lot of it is just habit.I have to say no to the habit other wise I will never be able to do this. Other than that one bad day I have pretty muched replaced it with water when I am at work. I have began drinking more water at home as well. Anything other than soda. I don’t keep it at home so I would have to go out and get it if I really wanted it.
