How I did it: I started out with, "Erin, can I tell you something that's been on my mind for awhile?"And I continued with, "I've been working here for two years. I have two years worth of experience and I feel as though I should not be making as much or less than a new hire."I was making minimum wage.I got a quarter raise...It's almost a slap in the face, but it's better than nothing.I'm sixteen. Read how I did it…
How I did it: How did I do it? I existed, haha.I contracted H1N1 through my father who got it from a coworker.It's not that bad. But I also got bronchitis at the same time!When my doctor told me I had H1N1, he looked at me like I was crazy when I said, "AWESOME!" haha. and I suppose I am a bit of a freak for thinking being a walking communicable disease is cool. Ahh well. Read how I did it…
How I did it: The Perseid meteor shower peaked last night so my boyfriend and I laid in my driveway and watched the meteors. It was very awesome and it made me feel emotionally connected to him and God because I'm a hippie like that [: haha Read how I did it…
