How I did it
It made me
not white! 
How I did it: i get tired of people calling me white, pasty, ghost girl, etc. i tried tanning in the sun, but all i get is a sunburn, and if i do tan, it lasts for about a day. so one day, my mom brought home a tanning lotion. i tried it out, and at first i was orange =/ but i waited until it went away, and then tried again gradually building up the product. i eventually turned a wonderfully tan colour, that wasn't too dark, but wasn't super light. it … Read how I did it…
It made me
loved
How I did it: I had gone off the path of God for a while, and I missed having a source of guidance there. So lately I started reading the bible, and if things go wrong, I pray :) I say a prayer every morning and thank God at the end of the day for all of the wonderful things he gave me.

How I did it: I missed photo a lot...so I looked at old pictures I took, and got re-inspired :) Now I carry my camera everywhere and I print pictures I take and put them into a scrapbook. Read how I did it…

i just got my driver’s license in the mail, and a sheet to become an organ donor was attached. i think it’s a cool idea, and it’s not like i’ll need those organs after i die. :) so tomorrow i will drop off the form in the mail and hopefully it’s all good!
first off, by saying “i’ve done this” is a big step. this is a life-long thing, or it is for me at least. being able to forgive someone after they’ve caused you an extreme mount of pain is really hard. some days, i don’t feel completely over the past, and other days, i couldn’t care less. take it day by day.
the bottom line is, the past will always sting. it will always sting a part of you, but you can choose to stay in those moments of sheer pain, or you can choose to accept that the past is the past. that nothing about the past will change. the words will always be said, the actions will always have been done, but you don’t need to always be angry about it. being angry about something in the past is useless.
how would you feel, if you found out that someone was mad at you for something that happened when you were 15? it was ages ago, and anger still be held onto is useless and stupid. it’s the same thing that’s going on inside you. anger, pain, whatever. it’s really the best idea to let it all go :) <3
