I want an affordable car
9 months ago
I need to save up a down payment and figure out which cars to search for. It needs to be a used car with low miles, so that it will last awhile but not cost as much as a new car.

How I did it
It made me
Happy 
How I did it: One class at a time. Granted it is only an associates degree, but it is so much better than "a bunch of credits", plus it got me headed in the right direction careerwise. Now I am starting a BA at the local university. Read how I did it…

How I did it: Ok ok, I draw well enough for the goals I want to pursue. Granted I will almost certainly take more art classes in the future and continue to improve, but I don't need this to be an additional goal right now. Read how I did it…

How I did it: I took classes, did much soul searching, and eventually stumbled upon what I want to do: animation. I had to wander around quite a bit, but I did find it eventually.
