I talk to myself a lot. Not out loud, but my lips move. I’ve been doing this for almost four years. And I always denied it. But I just caught myself doing it again, while looking in the mirror. I talk to imaginary people or just to myself. I imagine situations. Or I just start a conversation with myself. Sometimes I don’t even know I’m doing it, for example: at school, and it gets me into the weirdest situations. I’m not crazy, that’s for sure. I want to stop this, but at the same time I don’t. It helps me figure stuff out in my head (I’m really stressed sometimes, and it helps me to calm down) and sometimes it makes me feel less alone. Okay, it does sound a little crazy like that. But yeah. I hope I can work this out, or something.

How I did it: My parents are very agressive people. They raised me in such way, that I found myself yelling and screaming at people whenever I disagreed with them. I used to be the shy and quiet girl, when I started with high school. In 2 years I was becoming an agressive person. My parents told me it was better to yell at people, than to sit in a corner and say nothing. So, I became really agressive and angry, well.. most of the time I wasn't really t… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I bought a moleskine. It was so pretty, that it got me excited enough to write. At first I wrote in it once a week. I was too busy to write everyday. Atleast, that's what I told myself. But sometimes I forgot about the fun little details that happened on Monday, when I wrote in my diary on Sunday. I told myself to write more often, and in 2 weeks I found time in my dailyroutine to write. I made time. And because I liked it so much, I was … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I just got a new job (two months ago) and from the first minute I started working there, I knew I was going to save up money for an Ipod Touch. You have to know, I suck at saving up money, so it was very difficult. I should have the money within a month, but everytime I saw something that I needed. A new pair of jeans (because the old one was wasted), stuff like that. After I graduated I finally had enough money, for an iPod Touch 8GB. I … Read how I did it…

a few people are doing this goal, and I would love to do it, but I have ‘no clue’ what to write, because I don’t want to “scare” the people who might find the letter. For example, what if I write a letter about how I hate the world (I would never write that, but just for example) – I don’t want people to read the letter and go like ‘Omg, what kind of psycho would write this?’ You know?
So, I wondered if there are people who could tell me what they write to strangers. Just for the inspiration, of course.
