I tried but my sewing machine crapped out on me in the middle of a project I was really excited about :( it does this every time I’m on the way to getting something finished.. so I’m sort of put off.
Somehow the thread always tangles down by the bobbin, and I’ve read the instructions to make sure I’m threading it right, which I am, and it still does it. It’s so frustrating and it makes me not want to sew, when I do want to sew, but it’s not worth the stress.

How I did it: I had a friend from a place I worked, and we were very close but a relationship had never worked out for us then because of bad timingn. After I quit we kept in touch and hung out every once in a while. He was engaged, but after they broke up he found out she'd been cheating for a good portion of their relationship. He went on a big trip around europe and places, drinking a lot and such.. for a few months. when he got back we started hang… Read how I did it…
How I did it: used Jerome Russel bleach kits and Punky Color. Bleach as much as you can without totally killing your hair, and leave the color in while you sleep (with a towel on your pillow) So the color stays in well. When I did "normal" types of hair color I usually did a bright red. Read how I did it…
How I did it: One night, in a fit of self loathing and depression about the state of non-change in my life, I was surfing the interweb and started looking at vegetarianism things again. And I simply told myself I would no longer think about it and wish I were a vegetarian and that I would take action. So the next day I announced this to my mother and she didn't really believe me. But I've stuck with it and I feel a lot better about it. I quit making si… Read how I did it…

oh.. and the main reason i haven’t yet is because i’m allergic to so many things.. raw apples, pears, peaches, plums, cherries, carrots( they aren’t as bad though) and walnuts. if they’re cooked it’s not so bad, and i can eat walnuts with ice cream..
oh, what i’d give to eat a nice crunchy raw apple..
this will be much easier when I move out. I can prepare my own meals and not mind what other people think of the meatlessness, and just not buy meat. I try going days eating vegetarian to practice, and I usually feel better on those days..
