How I did it
How to have a photo published
It took me
6 months
It made me
proud

How I did it: All I did was take a picture, one of many in fact, and later I was contacted by a person searching for pictures for an upcoming book about architecture. My picture was one of the many hamlets at Blaise Hamlet, and it is credited with my name in the back. My one regret is, despite stating it very plainly, many times, my name is spelt 'Rachel' in the book, and not Rachael, sadly. Read how I did it…

How to make a cake all by myself
It took me
12 years
It made me
feel independent

How I did it: The hard part was trying. I'd started making a cake on my own a couple of times before. But, I always fell at the mixing stage, I mixed as fast as I could, but I was always afraid of the mixture curdling. Eventually I decided I would try anyway, keep adding a little flour, and a tablespoon with each additional egg, and it worked. Sometimes you're just unlucky, and a cake may curdle a little, but most won't notice anyway. Practice, and a b… Read how I did it…

How to give over 1500 free rice on freerice.com
It took me
1 day
It made me
Happy

How I did it: I saw the site because of somone's goal here, and started playing (you donate 20 grains of rice for each vocabulary question you get right). It's a cool way to help, and it's a good way to expand your vocabulary :) Read how I did it…

I love our local library! 2 days ago

I have rediscovered my love of the library, being that I am once again unemployed. Buying everything I want to read is not only expensive, but also a bit pointless, as I probably won’t read most books twice, and will then just end up giving them away. Our local library makes it very easy to see what they have (they have a website), taking out books is a simple matter of putting your library card in a machine, swiping the book, and that is that! Our library has also now starting lending out video games, so once the hype has died down from that, it’ll be very cool.

Get a job in Sweden (read all 5 entries…)
Hmm 5 days ago

This is looking ever more unlikely to happen before at least January, because, although I have written my CV, I am awaiting my school grades (from England) to have been equivalenced to Swedish grades. Crap bag.
