I'm doing 15 things
Sometimes you find you have absolutely no feelings left over the people you thought you’d love forever, and you fall in love with people you thought weren’t for you, and the person you couldn’t have changes their mind, and someone you didn’t see coming changes your life.

How I did it
It made me
ecstatic, free 
How I did it: I started slow, and with lots of procrastinating, practicing, lessons with pros, lessons with parents, a few tests and a car later, I had a license and I could use it. Read how I did it…
It made me
zen
How I did it: Well, I didn't want to fork out the $140 to go to a two-night festival, so I volunteered for eight hours and got my ticket free. Then I hopped on a bus all by myself and trekked it to Fairbridge (about twenty minutes from Mandurah), set up a tent and immersed myself for the next few days. Read how I did it…
It made me
zen
How I did it: It's simple, really - you just have to believe that someone up there is looking after you. That everything has a purpose, and it's all leading you somewhere that it's meant to be.The friend I was fighting with? We didn't speak for three months. Now we're back on track, and the relationship is so much better - she really appreciates me, and I am much more concious of how my actions affect her.It's all going to be okay. Read how I did it…

I gave my guitar to my now-ex boyfriend, who gave it to his brother, my now-close friend, after we broke up. I now hear my strange, untuneable, rough little guitar covering Tiger Jaw and Mountain Goats and Andrew Jackson Jihad every week, and I think it suits me better.
So I’ve finally started this. I’m actually going for two weeks or more though; and I think that’s come down to maturity. I’m a lot more settled in my life than I was when I created this account, and it’s shown in a few ways include my eating habits. I’ve begun to appreciate the taste of meatless meals and have been eating them with increasing frequency over the past few months. Now I’ve gone purist, just to try it, and I’ve found that I don’t miss it too much. We’ll see.
