I’m doing very, very well with this now. I write nearly every day. It really helps me figure myself out.

How I did it: I told my best friend of two years that the only time I'd lied to him was when I told him I didn't like him. He took it well but said he didn't like me that way. A week later he told me that he'd liked me a bit two weeks past; later that night he said a part of him still liked me. We spent a long time on the phone that night, trying to convince each other that it was a bad idea. The next day we met up and ended up … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I tried to remember to take a picture every day, but I missed a lot of days and finally stopped, because it was too annoying. I wish I could have been one of those people who, after seven years, can put all their pictures together into a montage, but I don't have the patience, or whatever it is. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I buy a 1.5 liter bottle of water once a week and refill it at the cooler in my school. I drink whenever I'm bored and refill as necessary. I make sure that I always have the bottle with me, and if my pee is not completely clear I make sure to drink more water immediately. Read how I did it…

I’ve been writing nearly every day; at least once a week, I believe. Now that I have a laptop it should be easier, but of course it isn’t. It’s still annoying to sit down and get it all out. It’s worth it, though.
I buy one liter-and-a-half every week and fill it up at the cooler in school. I try to empty the whole bottle within a day; when it’s hot out I aim for finishing it at least twice. I don’t necessarily drink all that but I always drink!
