live in the moment
Untitled

This is something I really need to learn how to do. My life is awesome but I am constantly stressed, either worrying about the future or beating myself up over the past. When I’m in class I’m worried about work. At work, I’m freaking out about schoolwork. And in general, I can just relax and enjoy where I am – I always start to stress out about how I can change or “fix” every little problem. when there aren’t problems, I create them. Man, I just want to freaking relax.



learn how to drive stick-shift
Untitled

I would like to learn but no one I know with a manual car will help me, saying “Sure I’ll teach you, but not on my car!” Now I have heard that it damages the engine a tiny bit, but how is anyone supposed to learn like that?! Will a few hours a teaching REALLY damage the car to the point where it’s unusable or even needs repair?



get dreadlocks
Untitled

So, I got locks. See the pic! I cheated, though.

They’re actually dredlock EXTENSIONS – additional hair added onto my own, and then rolled into dreds (without using any oil, wax, or any other gross substance) together.

So I can use them to either start real ones myself without having to deal with the 1-year “messy” stage, or I can just take them out and have my regular hair back without a trace.
