How I did it: Tag the absolute hell out of everything you post. Networking is important to a reasonable extent, but on tumblr, there are other, less explicit ways to get your blog out there. Tagging your posts makes all the difference, or at least it did for me. I personally find it a little obnoxious to ask for promos from, shall we say, the big-name guys. That said, I haven't ever asked for a promo, but my blog is about two and a half months old and … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I just... did it. Crazy course load of up to twice the expected number of credit hours per semester. Stopped sleeping. Dropped a good forty pounds.I planned to go right into grad school after the fact, but then I didn't have the funding... so, I couldn't go, and school had been my whole life up until that point.

I fell off the wagon, but I’m still committed to quitting and staying quit. So saying, I’m now on the patch. It’s not easy, but a lady I met at work today told me, well, you just have to look at it like, it’s just a cigarette. I don’t need that crap in my life.

I’m not even Jewish, though whether I’m related to anyone who is Jewish is a complete mystery to me. I’m not sure if it matters. I want to learn Hebrew for the same reason I wanted to learn German: I like it. Seems like a cool challenge. I also want to learn Swedish, French, Sanskrit and maybe Chinese. I speak a bit of Spanish and I’m trying to polish my German, but hopefully I can work my way up to being multilingual.
