How I did it
It made me
surprised 
How I did it: Not really sure how I did it since the ways of the scoring elude me, but somehow I managed to get that sucker to 810. I paid all my bills on time and in full every month.I have two credit cards - one of which I owe nothing on but keep open for emergencies. The other one is my regular use card that has the lower rate, and I pay more than the minimum due every month. Read how I did it…
It made me
apologetic 
How I did it: I know in the past I've caused you pain, and I'm sorry. And I'll always be sorry 'till the day I die. And I hate this pen I'm holding because I should be holding you. I hate this paper under my hand because it isn't you. I even hate this letter because it's not the whole truth. Because the whole truth is so much more than a letter can even say. If you want to hate me, go ahead. If you want to burn this letter, do it. You could burn the wh… Read how I did it…

How I did it: I got me some pillows, took an advanced placement structural engineering class, created a rough schematic of my envisioned fortress - then had at it.I haven't done this in many moons - but my brother is visiting me in a few weeks and when we were talking about sleeping arrangements he said he was going to build a pillow fort on the couch.

What am I here for
I left my home to disappear is all
I’m here for myself
Not to know you
I don’t need no one else
Fit in so good the hope is that you cannot see me later
You don’t know me

My mom just got laid off. Twelve years at the same company and now she has to sign up for unemployment for the first time in her life.
She’s more upset about that then being laid off. But being the upbeat person that she is she says “Now I’ll have more time to blow bubbles which is all I really care about.”
I heart that lady.
