I've been doing calligraphy for the past three years, and I can speak honestly when I say it's changed my life for the better.

Top 5 Tips to Prepare Your Garden for Winter
Many things can be done to get gardens ready for winter, especially as the following. 1. Raking-up leaves from lawns is a good start. This will make footpaths less slippery, it will air the lawn, and it will make everything look neater. If enough space is available it is better to separate raked leaves from standard compost, in order to produce leaf mould, which is a golden material to add to the soil for the next growing season.

How to Earn Money Watching YouTube Videos
So before I go on listing these useful websites, be sure to head on over to Vocal's lifehack community, where I've explained how to earn on the side. I go in depth into sites I've used to generate $2000 per year for the last two years. I also have a part-time job, that really helps out with expenses. You will not be able to survive alone on these extra websites, but it will put some money in the bank. When you consider how easy it is to earn this, it will feel like it is free money. Put that extra amount in the bank to earn interest, and you will be well on your way to getting rid of the traditional nine to five, and living off soft drink dividend payments, free coffee or maybe even your rent payment if you start early enough.

Ways to Save Money
Yes, we all have those times where we find something nice and want it, especially when it comes to holiday shopping such as Back Friday and Cyber Monday. I have some easy solutions to help you save money on your favorite activities and even products and services you purchase. First, when it comes to dates, I like to try to go out on Tuesdays, which are known as Taco Tuesdays, but there are more offers than just tacos. For example, when I went out on dates, most of them would be on Tuesdays which was a great advantage. At Studio Movie Grill in my town, they have reserved seating and serve food, but on Tuesdays tickets cost $5 each. Check out your local theaters for special deals during the week when it comes to doing movie dates and to save extra money… eat and drink during happy hour before heading to the movies.

Steps to Tranquility in a 24 Hour World
1. The first thing we all need to do is get in some “me time” on a regular basis! Go ahead, be totally selfish on occasion and love yourself enough to award YOU anywhere from ten minutes to an hour a day. Do something productive that takes your mind off work or any other life stressors that may be present in your life. Your sanity and probably your family will thank you... profusely!

Life Hack: Easy Money for Broke College Students
College is difficult, that is a fact. Whether it's trying to get essays done before the 11:59 PM deadline, finding the motivation to wake up and look decent for our 8 AM class, or even trying to budget your eating habits (because YES, "Freshman 15" IS a thing). Most college students rely on quick, cheap and easy meals, such as Taco Bell, Chick-fil-a, McDonalds, Wendys, Dunkin' Donuts, Steak n' Shake... I could go on for hours. This is especially convenient because a lot of these places are open late, and for those late night procrastinators, food helps the frustration. But, even these cheap meals add up, and they don't look so 'cheap' after a while.
