How I did it
It made me
excited 
How I did it: My friend's friend Jonathan is an aspiring photographer looking to expand his portfolio. Since he had photographed my friend Brittany, I felt very comfortable and safe with him. Read how I did it…
It made me
excite!
How I did it: My black father was born in a time when it was legal to discriminate again blacks in public places. Now, the very first time I am eligible to vote for the president, I get to vote for a man who is mixed black and white like I am. My home state of Virginia, the cradle of the Confederacy, voted for a black man. Truly inspiring. Read how I did it…
It made me
really happy
How I did it: I applied for my current job (substitute teacher) six months ago. After the longest EVER hiring process (it took them 2 months to check my 2 references - what's the deal?) I finally was approved this week to substitute teach.The pay is good, the schedule is flexible, and frankly, I'm just so happy to finally have a job. My self-esteem without one had gone way down hill, as had my finances. Read how I did it…
