How I did it
How to graduate with honors
It took me
4 years
It made me
Proud of Myself

How I did it: I studied hard, researched the best professors and classes and did my best to get into them. I went to class, read the material, spoke up in class, and was punctual with my work. I always edited my papers. This can get you a long way. It makes you appear more intelligent and more caring about your work. If you have bad grammar, find someone who can help you edit.

How to study the bible
It took me
5 months
It made me
Hardwork/Rewarding

How I did it: I joined a nationally organized bible study called Bible Study Fellowship. It is very organized and their lessons and supplement material make it very easy to plug into the bible. Each week you get a new lesson to work on and bring it back the next week to discuss and learn more. Read how I did it…

How to live somewhere besides Fresno
It took me
1 day
It made me
adventurous

How I did it: My husband got a job and we moved. Finding an apartment was very scary but has worked out okay. We did a lot of research and love where we live now. There are tons of shops and restaurants in walking distance and plenty of nightlife when we aren't too tired. Read how I did it…

Make a quilt
Untitled 20 months ago

I made a blue quilt with the help of my Mother and Grandmother. It was awesome. I am so proud of myself, and it will be something that will last for a long, long time and that I can one day share with my children.

get rid of clothes i dont need
Untitled 2 years ago

I decided to find forty items from my closet to give away—one for each day of Lent. I put it off until the last week, but I just finished and it feels great! I can close all of my drawers and my closet looks nice and neat! It was easier than I thought it would be. Didn’t get tough until the last 5 items.
