How I did it
How to get my Daith pierced
It took me
1 year
It made me
BEAM :D

How I did it: The first time I saw this piercing, I just knew I had to get it. And this was a big deal for me! Partly because more than 89% of the times I say these things, it never actually happens. So when I quit swimming a year later, I knew NOTHING stood in my way (pool with 3078419 swimmers + piercing = hella unsanitary). I did some research and found a credible place downtown. Since I was only 17, I needed someone of legal age to accompany me. Th… Read how I did it…

How to stay out all night
It took me
3 years
It made me
TIRED!

How I did it: It was Ladies Night and the MTR closed at midnight and opened up at 6AM. This left us six glorious hours to club hop, eat "breakfast" with pretty much everyone else from the clubs and chill on curbs till the bus came. Well, the point is, time flew by really fast when I was in the club. Free alcohol, loud music, dim lights - it was just an experience that I wanted to last. I could've danced the whole night away. I didn't realize it was 4AM… Read how I did it…

How to ride a train
It took me
19 years
It made me
giddy

How I did it: Eurostar from London to Paris. Classy, clean and oh-so comfortable. I took it with my sister during my second week in London this summer. She takes this to work at least three times a month! At first, I was in economy class but she was able to sneak me in to business! It also helped that the attendants didn't mind. In fact, one actually guided me there! The ride was approximately two hours long? It was hard to tell as I was stuffing my fa… Read how I did it…

wake up when my alarm clock goes off
so far so good... 4 months ago

I have 8:30 classes this semester and I’ve been adjusting quite well. Although, a LARGE cup of yorkshire tea in the morning has become my saviour.

Let’s hope I can do this for the rest of the year! ~knocks on wood

Update my 43Things
I'm back! 4 months ago

Okay, it’s safe to say that it has been quite a while since I’ve updated this. Sorry! But I think my return is mostly attributed to procrastination and the new interface. I am a sucker for pretty things.

WELL, I plan to document most of my summer happenings. SO until that happens, this will be an ongoing project. OR maybe it’ll be a perma-goal like the select few on here that are …very special.
