How I did it
How to watch all episodes of "Friends"
It took me
10 years
It made me
happy.

How I did it: I caught most of the episodes as they aired but over the past few years I've collected all 10 Seasons and have since watched each through a time or two.  Read how I did it…

How to come out to my parents
It took me
4 years
It made me
feel FREE!

How I did it: I've always viewed sexuality as fluid. But I was raised in a strict Southern Baptist home for the majority of my life. "Gay" wasn't normal in their eyes and when I realized I'd fallen in love with another girl, coming out to my parents terrified me more than anything on earth. It was around the time I'd started college which is when my step-brother had also came out to my parents. My step-brother who hadn't been home in nearly 7 years, mi… Read how I did it…

live a vegetarian lifestyle
March 13, 2009 - Two Weeks In 6 months ago

I’ve always been what you could call an “animal lover” which was my first and main reason for going Veggie. Currently at 23, I’ve previously tried the Vegetarian lifestyle twice, unsuccessfully, mainly because I didn’t know how to do it. The kitchen has never been my area and I’ve never been much of a cook because the time just never seemed to be there. Wow, I counted “never” three times in that last sentence. No wonder I “never” made it before – such pessimism. Living with a Vegetarian and a Vegan, it’s opened my eyes to the healthier aspect and a lot of techniques in helping me begin and remain Vegetarian again.

It’s been two weeks and I’m doing well so far. In my entire life, I think I’ve only eaten one hamburger. I was what they called a “picky eater” and only ate chicken or turkey up until I decided to call off meat all together a few weeks ago. Of course I have cravings every once in a while. What I miss most is my Turkey Subway sub and then I quickly remember exactly WHAT I’m eating and why I tried doing this for the third time.
