How I did it
How to get a railcard
It took me
12 months
It made me
Satisfied

How I did it: Getting a railcard isn't a very hard thing to do. You have two possibilities to get it. You either go to your local train station, fill out a form, bring some money, your passport and a good photo of you OR you go on the railcard website (http://www.16-25railcard.co.uk) and follow the same procedures on there. Reason #1 I waited so long to get it is because you get an 11% discount with an NUS Extra Card. It's not an important discoun… Read how I did it…

How to have a regular sleep schedule
It took me
2 years
It made me
alive

How I did it: Having a regular sleep schedule must be one of the simplest goals you can achieve when practicing discipline. Essential are the willingness, the persistence and the ambition to reach this (and many other goals). Knowing what exactly is keeping you from having a decent, human sleep pattern is vital as well. I used to have a horrible sleeping pattern. I used to go to sleep at 5AM and wake up at 2 or 3 or even 4 in the afterno… Read how I did it…

How to beat my depression
It took me
6 years
It made me
enjoy Life again

How I did it: Beating my depression was one of the hardest and longest yet most significant battles in my life so far. I don’t quite know whether a how-to is useful here because this battle is different for each and every one of us. However, I feel like sharing some advice to those out there who are still fighting valiantly, although some may have lost the reason why, already.Understand. I had been living with a depression for over 5 years without real… Read how I did it…

I’m grateful for…

  • officially finishing my second year at uni.
    Next year is my last year as an undergrad, which is hard to believe. Time goes so quickly.
  • having had the strength to deal with this last, stressful finals week
    Yes, I cried. Yes, I hated on myself so many times. Yes, I was grumpy and horrible but the important thing is that I made it.
  • my dad helping me move out
  • my boyfriend

Read 45 books in 2013 (read all 10 entries…)
#8 Cranford by Elizabeth Gaskell (1853)

A delightful Victorian novel full of funny stories revolving around the small English town Cranford, which is dominated by women. This is the first Victorian novel I read in which women do not entirely depend on men. This is a novel about female characters empowering each other and gossiping about neighbours. All the male characters are presented as fairly frail and weak. More often than not they are portrayed as depending on their wives and daughters as much as the females are depending on the men. Great read! Gaskell definitely wanted to prove to the Victorian audience that women were capable of many different things.
