How I did it: I've been wanting to take yoga for the longest time. But I never had the money, time, or motivation to get on with it. I researched only online for classes near where I lived. I finally found a class on a meetup site and joined the group. I RSVP'd for one class but ended up cancelling so this time I was determined to go through with it. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I wanted to do something artistic today and chose this from my list. I had written down quotations on a pad of post-it notes. So I was all ready to put them in the books. I went to the city library and just started browsing the stacks. I didn't look at the quotes before I placed them, I just pulled them from my pack and stuck them in the books I picked up.

For some reason I keep getting jobs in production side of design. And production sucks. It involves long hours, repetitive, and people treating you like you are some sort of a mindless drone. And no matter how big the project is and no matter big your client is you are paid just above minimum wage to do the work.
I have a good imagination, I know I am creative and my production skills will probably help in finding a design job. I just have to get my portfolio and my confidence together and get on with it.
Chelsea is crazy. Her voice comes out so well in the writing it sounds like one of her monologues. Good comedy read. Warning: can be a little gross at times.
