How I did it
How to recycle more and get more people to recycle
It took me
3 years
It made me

How I did it: Well, I always recycle. I actually feel guilty is I throw a bottle or can into the trash. At home, I made my roommates recycle and at work I have gotten recycling bins added to my department. Read how I did it…

How to go to a Modest Mouse show
It took me
3 years
It made me

How I did it: Just waited for them to come to my town, bought the tickets, then asked for the day off. Oh, and I made my boyfriend tag along so I would not have to go alone. Read how I did it…

How to switch to reusable shopping bags for groceries
It took me
1 day
It made me

How I did it: Well, I ordered 3 totes from Old Navy (they were on sale). Ever since I got them I just take them with me to the store. The hardest part is just remembering to take them into the store with me. The bags hold a lot more than plastic bags do, and they are much more sturdy. They are also good for other stuff, like toting around junk for day trips and stuff like that. :) Read how I did it…

get out of debt (read all 15 entries…)
Whoa, have I let this go...

It has been a REALLY long time since I h ave looked at this, or paid off any of my old bills.
This was my list last time I was here:
1. $456.8o for SBC
2. $112.oo for Kayla
3. $2oo.oo to Megan
4. $1817.36 for my car
5. $1569.66 for medical bills

This is my list as of now:
1. $112.oo for Kayla
2. $1817.36 for my OLD car
3. $1569.66 for medical bills
4. $28oo.oo for Jeep
5. $16o.oo (with lump payment option of $110) to RMJ

So, my debt has went up, not down like I had been wishing it would. I am making this my #1 goal for now, and hope to have at least $15oo.oo worth of this paid off within the nest 6 months. I guess this means NO MORE Starbucks!

Read all of the books on the "Rory Gilmore Reading List" (read all 6 entries…)
Galapagos by Kurt Vonnegut

The first audio book I listened to. This story is really strange, but not hard to follow. I don’t think I have ever heard a story like this before… I liked it.

The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger

Listened to this on audio book, again, while I was working. I am counting audio books as reading, that way I can get a lot more of these done. I know that is sort of cheating…
