Started at Coles this week – best job ever! I’m still tutoring, and that’s where my cash is really coming from…but I needed a workplace with coworkers and new skills, and fun, and cheap books – and here it is!

How I did it: .I realized I already had, without knowing it. My friends see things and they say, that's so Sam! And that's when I knew. I'm already awesomely stylish...so much so that it's effortless ;) and I didn't even notice. Read how I did it…
I just found out from ICBC (the DMV here in BC) that because I’ve had my Learner’s before, I don’t have to wait a year before moving on to the novice stage! Which means as soon as I feel ready I can get a real license, and then I can get a vespa! Huzzah!
Cause it’s a great one! Really, it seems so simple, but it can sometimes be so difficult, especially when the people around you aren’t into the same things as you, whether it’s what you watch or what you read, or what you think about the big Questions – morality, religion, lifestyle… This is a great goal, one I try to work on every day, because in the final analysis I’m living MY LIFE, and it’s the only one I’ve got, and I may as well stride through it confident in what I believe and what I enjoy, squeezing the most contentment out of every moment – or what’s the point! Good luck to all!
