Learn how to spell better
Probably Pretty Important... 14 months ago

My mom has always gotten on my at how bad my spelling is. She has been a secretary/office manager for like 20 years now, so she can spot an error a million miles away. I have slight dyslexia, and spelling is sort of a problem for me. I don’t think it helped reading almost nothing but British authors when I was a kid (I’m American) so when I do spell a lot of things, my first instinct is to spell them the British way.
I think Japanese kana makes a lot more sense- I never misspelled anything in Japanese class because it actually uses a logical syllable system!!



Open a savings account
Financial Responcibility 14 months ago

As a college student, I have been in debt and living paycheck to paycheck for three years. I finally paid off my credit card, and I have gotten a grant to cover this year’s tuition (less debt for graduation! yay) I finally have a little saved up, and after paying expensive San Francisco rent, I want to start saving up so I can move into a nicer place, and have a cushion in case I become unemployed… that kind of stuff.



get arrested at a protest (read all 2 entries…)
It would make a good story... 14 months ago

In high school, I was “most likely to get arrested in a protest” although that category never made it into the yearbook lol. More importantly, I want to be able to make a stand for something I believe in so much, that the fear of being arrested wouldn’t be a factor.
