So during my spring break, I started printing out my digital pictures, and organizing them in some type of chronological order. It’s so nice to put that out and look through it at the best pictures I took. Now it’ll be maintenance work…but the hard part is done.

How I did it: I wanted a tattoo for about 8 years before I decided it was time to take the leap. I thought about what I wanted it to represent and where I was at that point in my life, and decided to take the leap and get Barrie's Peter Pan - a reminder to try new things and to "never grow up." After that, my second tattoo was a breeze - as a YA librarian I wanted a line I liked and a book that marked my new profession. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I took a new job as a librarian, and it was my responsibility to not only be a member but RUN the book club - which means, selecting titles, ordering books, and all PR that goes along with it. Read how I did it…
How I did it: When I took a new job, at first I spent less time online since I had less free time at work, and then when I did, I had gotten out of the habit of constant surfing. I haven't let myself look back and fall into old and bad habits. Read how I did it…

I began volunteering after I spent some time for a class field placement, and they told me they would offer more programming if they had the volunteers. After we made up a schedule, not only did they ask that I put it on my resume, but the head staffer asked that I use her as a Reference…unexpected things happen when you want to do something nice-just because.
