This Saturday is roomie day and my pick. I decided that the three of us should go to the Phoenix Oktoberfest! I am quite excited. There are THREE festivals going on this weekend! I want to hit them all….but I am thinking realistically maybe two: the Greekfest and Oktoberfest. Let the “festivities” begin! : ~ )

How I did it: I think my writing has improved already! When I write about what I am thinking and feeling humor comes out and so does reality. I realize things when I am writing that I wouldn't have normally recognized.Everyone should write a blog! I was able to express feelings in writing that I can't in person. When I write I am able to think more clearly and ponder more about what I am trying to express. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I am not the one to jump on ANY bandwagon by any means. But I had a couple of girlfriends express to me how wonderful the Twilight books are. I made the decision to go to the library and check the book out. I didn't want to buy a book if I wasn't going to love it. AND I was too impatient to wait to borrow it from a friend.I ventured to the library and couldn't find the book! I looked everywhere! I finally asked someone and they said … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I told myself when I moved to AZ I would enjoy and and not hold two jobs. Well, I have lived here three years and money is getting tight! Plus, it is VERY expensive to live here and I want to live by myself. I have always had two jobs. Ever since graduating High School! Of course I searched the internet, asked around and applied, applied, applied! The one thing that I do, and I don't think many people do, is once I fill out an application… Read how I did it…
See all "How I Did It" stories...
I didn’t not realize the amount of money it took to get your passport! It might cost around 100 bucks if my estimate is correct. Plus, my Aunt and Cousin just went and got their photo’s taken for their passports and now you cannot smile for them! I want my picture to look cute. : (
I have now filled out the application..now time for the photo.
I talked with my co-workers and informed them of my new goal. (This may also be my New Year’s resolution.) They agreed that the gossiping at work has gotten out of control and we all need to stop. Hopefully, with their help, we can all get this out of control.
