I’ve just moved back from college so have a suit case, guitar, bags, alcohol, books and not to mention washing baskets and wrapping paper lying all around the place. I currently have about 2 square feet of floor space =S
So I’m about to get started cleaning by taking all dishes down to kitchen.
Then, I’m gonna wack on some music and put clothes away.
Check back with me in 2 hours, hopefully it will start looking less like a laundry and more like a bedroom

How I did it: The key here is to make sure you work on flexibility every day. Every afternoon I would take 5-10 minutes and stretch it out in the lounge room. Make sure you have a particular goal in mind (mine was to do the splits), otherwise you don't know when you're done.I did basic stretches and then attempted the splits, going a little lower each day.Then after a few weeks of practice (weeks because i was a bit lazy) i could do them!

How I did it: Choose a driving school in your area, ring or email them and explain that you want lessons. They'll ask what transmission you want to learn in (automatic or manual) and will pick an instructor suitable for you. Now it's simply a matter of booking in a date. Basically, ring them and book it. Don't cancel or move the date back because you'll delay getting your license, which is awesome! Read how I did it…
How I did it: A lot of hard work (for the HD anyway...)!!For the subjects where i got a pass and credit, they still involved a lot of hard work. If i hadn't put in all that effort, i would DEFINITELY have failed and would've had to repeat. Now i'm inspired to do even better for next year! Read how I did it…

Current stats:
Weight: 67kg
Exercise type (and length): dumbbells (30min), walking (20min)
End of week goal: walk dogs 20 minutes EACH every day, weight training for 4 afternoons
My family has to white German Shepherds who need regular exercise or they become moody and mope. So I’m making it my responsibility to take them out for a walk every day. Since they are both HUGE dogs (even the 6 month old pup weighs 30 kilos – he’s very skinny, just tall and growing fast) I have to take them out separately, which means double the exercise!
I’m going to start with walking both at least 20 minutes each day to make it a habit and gradually increase fitness. After a week or so I’m going to incorporate brief running intervals in there.
I’ve also been doing weight training, so hopefully the addition of muscle with give me a nicer figure and faster metabolism.
