How I did it: What it took for me to start cooking more was:1) Moving into a student housing cooperative where I had 24/7 access to a fully stocked industrial sized kitchen and could experiment and cook absolutely anything for students who were grateful to have a hot meal they didn't have to cook for themselves.2) A great boyfriend who loves anything I cook for him and is incredibly easy to please. I love feeling like little Betty Homemaker in hi… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I moved into a student housing cooperative where people are very accepting, and I became good friends with one of my neighbors. I don't really want to go into detail, but I will say it was a wonderful experience. I'd love to do it again, and to all those girls thinking about it but who are just too scared to act on their impulses - don't be nervous! The right girl will make the experience feel completely natural. P… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I think I sleep more than I need to actually. It seems like when I control how much I sleep, say to only 7 or 8 hours a night, and I get used to this pattern, I sleep a lot more restfully, and it's good because I'm not spending so much time in bed when i could be doing other things. I used to think I needed 10 hours to be at 100% - not so, apparently. Read how I did it…
I thought this would be a lot more glamorous before I saw what an airplane bathroom actually looks like! Yeah right! Maybe it just requires creativity to squeeze in there. Or maybe things are way better when you fly first class.
Still wouldn’t mind giving a hj under an airplane blanket on a red-eye flight though. :P That’s a little more practical.
Currently I’m in school getting my teaching certificate so that I can teach high school science, and now that I’ve done some of my student teaching, it is so obvious to me how public schools are failing our kids. And it’s like, I could be the best teacher in the world, and I still can’t be the best teacher for each individual kid, because every kid has different needs! There’s just no way to win with public school, which is why I don’t plan on sending my (future) children there (although I do believe it’s a combined decision with both parents and child and homeschooling isn’t for everyone).
I suppose if my future mate is opposed to homeschooling, and we make enough money, I wouldn’t mind putting my kids into a Montessori private school, because I really believe in their philosophy. Otherwise, I think homeschooling is extremely do-able at many different income levels, especially with the support of homeschooling co-ops. I’m willing to make all kinds of sacrifices if necessary to make it work, because it really is that important to me.
And wow! 31 out of 31 people think this is worth doing! That’s pretty good odds right there. :D
How hot do you have to be to do this? I mean, I can just think of a bunch of little body issues that make me nervous about baring my ass to the world, despite being otherwise pretty. Like cellulite, not that I have a lot, I have a normal amount, but what’s the prevalence of that at a strip club? Or like my bottom ribs on the left side didn’t set right when I broke them in middle school, so they’re a little funny looking if you’re paying attention. Plus my boobs, although fairly large aren’t precisely the same size, but I mean a lot of women are like this, so should I be concerned?
And do your really strip down to naked nakedness? Or can I keep like a G-string or V-string on?
