Here’s an easy resolution: This stuff is all free as long as you have access to a computer, and the skills you learn will be invaluable in your career, and/or life in general.
1. Become awesome at Excel.
Chandoo is one of many gracious Excel experts who wants to share their knowledge with the world. Excel excellence is one of those skills that will improve your chances of getting a good job instantly, and it will continue to prove invaluable over the course of your career. What are you waiting for?
2. Learn how to code.
Perhaps no other skill you can learn for free online has as much potential to lead to a lucrative career. Want to build a site for your startup? Want to build the next big app? Want to get hired at a place like BuzzFeed? You should learn to code. There are a lot of places that offer free or cheap online coding tutorials, but I recommend Code Academy for their breadth and innovative program. If you want to try a more traditional route, Harvard offers its excellent Introduction to Computer Science course online for free.
3. Make a dynamic website.
You could use a pre-existing template or blogging service, or you could learn Ruby on Rails and probably change your life forever. Here’s an extremely helpful long list of free Ruby learning tools that includes everything from Rails for Zombies to Learn Ruby The Hard Way. Go! Ruby! Some basic programming experience, like one of the courses above, might be helpful (but not necessarily required if you’re patient with yourself).
4. Learn to make a mobile game.
If you’re not interested in coding anything other than fun game apps, you could trythis course from the University of Reading. It promises to teach you how to build a game in Java, even if you don’t have programming experience! If you want to make a truly great game, you might want to read/listen up on Game Theory first.
5. Start reading faster.
Spreeder is a free online program that will improve your reading skill and comprehension no matter how old you are. With enough practice, you could learn to double, triple, or even quadruple the speed at which you read passages currently, which is basically like adding years to your life.
6. Learn a language!
With Duolingo, you can learn Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, or English (from any of the above or more). There’s a mobile app and a website, and the extensive courses are completely free.
Full disclosure: BuzzFeed and other websites are in a partnership with DuoLingo, but they did not pay or ask for this placement.
7. Pickle your own vegetables.
Tired of your farmer’s market haul going bad before you use it all? Or do you just love tangy pickled veggies? You too can pickle like a pro thanks to SkillShare and Travis Grillo.
8. Improve your public speaking skills.
You can take the University of Washington’s Intro to Public Speaking for free online. Once you learn a few tricks of the trade, you’ll be able to go into situations like being asked to present at a company meeting or giving a presentation in class without nearly as much fear and loathing.
9. Get a basic handle of statistics.
UC Berkeley put a stats intro class on iTunes. Once you know how to understand the numbers yourself, you’ll never read a biased “news” article the same way again — 100% of authors of this post agree!
10. Understand basic psychology.
Knowing the basics of psych will bring context to your understanding of yourself, the dynamics of your family and friendships, what’s really going on with your coworkers, and the woes and wonders of society in general. Yale University has its Intro to Psychology lectures online for free.
11. Make your own music.
Step one: Learn how to play guitar: Justin Guitar is a fine and free place to start learning chords and the basic skills you’ll need to be able to play guitar — from there, it’s up to you, but once you know the basics, just looking up tabs for your favorite songs and learning them on your own is how many young guitar players get their start (plus it’s an excellent party trick).
Step two: A delightful free voice lesson from Berklee College Of Music.
Step three: Have you always thought you had an inner TSwift? Berklee College of Music offers an Introduction to Songwriting course completely for free online. The course is six weeks long, and by the end of the lesson you’ll have at least one completed song.
Step four: Lifehacker’s basics of music production will help you put it all together once you have the skills down! You’ll be recording your own music, ready to share with your valentine or the entire world, in no time!
12. Learn to negotiate.
Let Stanford’s Stan Christensen explain how to negotiate in business and your personal life, managing relationships for your personal gain and not letting yourself be steamrolled. There are a lot of football metaphors and it’s great.
13. Stop hating math.
If you struggled with math throughout school and now have trouble applying it in real-world situations when it crops up, try Saylor.org’s Real World Math course. It will reteach you basic math skills as they apply IRL. Very helpful!
14. Start drawing!
All kids draw — so why do we become so afraid of it as adults? Everyone should feel comfortable with a sketchbook and pencil, and sketching is a wonderful way to express your creativity. DrawSpace is a great place to start. (I also highly recommend the book Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain if you can drop a few dollars for a used copy.)
15. Make your own animated GIF.
BuzzFeed’s own Katie Notopoulos has a great, simple guide to making an animated GIF without Photoshop. This is all you need to be the king or queen of Tumblr or your favorite email chains.
16. Appreciate jazz.
Have you never really “gotten” jazz? If you want to be able to participate in conversations at fancy parties and/or just add some context to your appreciation of all music, try this free online course from UT Austin.
17. Write well.
Macalester College’s lecture series is excellent. If you’re more interested in journalism, try Wikiversity’s course selection.
18. Get better at using Photoshop.
Another invaluable skill that will get you places in your career, learning Photoshop can be as fun as watching the hilarious videos on You Suck At Photoshop or as serious as this extensive Udemy training course (focused on photo retouching).
19. Take decent pictures.
Lifehacker’s basics of photography might be a good place to start. Learn how your camera works, the basic of composition, and editing images in post-production. If you finish that and you’re not sure what to do next, here’s a short course on displaying and sharing your digital photographs.
20. Learn to knit.
Instructables has a great course by a woman who is herself an online-taught knitter. You’ll be making baby hats and cute scarves before this winter’s over!
21. Get started with investing in stocks.
If you are lucky enough to have a regular income, you should start learning about savings and investment now. Investopedia has a ton of online resources, including this free stocks basics course. Invest away!
22. Clean your house in a short amount of time.
Unf$#k Your Habitat has a great emergency cleaning guide for when your mother-in-law springs a surprise visit on you. While you’re over there, the entire blog is good for getting organized and clean in the long term, not just in “emergencies.” You’ll be happier for it.
23. Start practicing yoga.
Most cities have free community classes (try just searching Google or inquiring at your local yoga studio), or if you’re more comfortable trying yoga at home, YogaGlohas a great 15-day trial and Yome is a compendium of 100% free yoga videos. If you’re already familiar with basic yoga positions but you need an easy way to practice at home, I recommend YogaTailor’s free trial as well.
24. Tie your shoelaces more efficiently.
It’s simple and just imagine the minutes of your life you’ll save!

hey guys, hope your skin is clear and you get a text from someone you like real soon.
also that your lunch tastes good, you find twenty dollars on the ground, and that thing coming up that you were dreading turns out not so bad
Passing this good karma
I reblogged this 3 days ago and my skin got clear and I got a message from a guy who refers to me as queen yesterday. Good karma vibes all around.
ARE U FUCKING KIDDING ME I REBLOGGED THIS YESTERDAY AND MY SKIN IS CLEAR AS F NOW
(via asthmathot)
It’s so sad that this is something that needs to be spread around.
It’s so fucking sad that I have to reblog this shit. Y'all please be safe.
(via loveupeople)
me: *deletes fucking everything off my phone*
phone: your storage is almost full
When you delete things off of a mobile device (like a phone or digital camera), the file goes to your phone’s recycle bin (just like on a desktop computer or laptop), typically an invisible folder named .trashes or .trash. There, it continues to take up the same amount of memory storage as it did before you ‘deleted’ it. To empty your mobile device’s recycling bin, plug your phone into your desktop or laptop via USB as a memory device, right click on your desktop/laptop’s recycling bin/trash, and tell it to empty your recycling bin/empty trash. Your computer will empty all .trash/.trashes folders, including the one on your phone, actually deleting the files permanently this time, freeing up your phone/camera’s memory space. Reblog to save a life.
(I know this works on MAC with my Andriod, it’s not too far a stretch to do the same on Windows and/or with other phones as well. In fact, it should be easier to do on Windows since Windows Explorer is more conducive to finding hidden folders.)
FINDING THIS RANDOM POST ON MY DASHBOARD GAVE ME THE BEST ANSWER TO SHIT I’VE BEEN GOOGLING ABOUT FOR MONTHS!!!
HOLY
(via studentbby-blog)

A cinematic representation of #AllLivesMatter
(As explained by some guy on Facebook)[group laughter]
Black teen: “Hey, I wanna thank you lovely Caucasians for forcing me into your lovely Caucasian home for a nice lovely Caucasian dinner. [laughs]”
White woman: “Well of course! John’s nigger friends are always “welcomed” here.” [timer dings] “Oooh! It sounds like the food! [handing out bowls] “Here you go, honey. Here you go, son.”
White man: “Honey, absolutely delicious!”
White teen: “This food is lovely!”
White woman: “Quan, is everything alright?”
Black teen: “Oh, yeah, I’m fine! You just forgot to give me a plate of food, and I’m kind of hungry.”
White woman: “Now J’Quan, I know in the hood it’s a dog-eat-dog world but we’re all hungry, okay, hun.”
Black teen: “Right, we’re all hungry, but you guys all got food, and I didn’t.”
White woman: “Sweetheart, you’re being selfish. All our hunger matters, ok? We’re all hungry.”
Black teen: “Right…all of our hunger matters but you guys- “
White woman: [shouting angrily] “Listen you coon-fuck, we forced you into this fucking house, and your nigger ass will appreciate everything we have not fucking given you! You piece of porch-monkey shit!”
Black teen: “I just wanted food like everyone else.”
White woman: “Save it, you nigger fuck.’

reblog if ur mom is smart and beautiful
I scrolled passed then I felt guilty
same
those comments gave me hope to this generation
(via studyy)
Yesterday this country celebrated freedom and today a black man was shot in the chest 6 times by cops when all he was doing was trying to make a living. This is why black lives matter because this man wasn’t even resisting the cops yet they used such aggression with him and killed him. My heart and prayers go out to his family I’m so sorry that someone they love was taken from them in such a violent way. His name was Alton Sterling remember his name.

Please help: $1290 needed by Tuesday AEST / Monday evening EST
I’m a 21 year old disabled woman, currently receiving a $336/week social security payment. It’s impossible for me to do anything that requires leaving my bed or being upright, so maintaining basic standards wrt my living conditions has been a struggle. The extent of my disability also means that losing my accommodation would put my life in danger.
I need some help with $1290 in upcoming home care, transport and rent payments, outlined on this linked post. It includes $490 in rent due tomorrow (Monday 4th July AEST or Sunday evening EST). I’m anticipating that I will soon need to start raising money for bond, as part of urgent applications for an apartment closer to my neurologist’s practice. Regardless of the set due dates, I need to raise the $1290 by Tuesday AEST (or Monday evening EST) to leave enough time to fundraise for bond.
My condition has worsened considerably in the past weeks, so I have limited ability to maintain and promote this fundraiser. I would really appreciate it if this post can be reblogged, and it would go a long way in preventing further physical deterioration. Please also consider making a donation through one of the following options, if you are able to. Even a dollar or five dollars would be very helpful. Thank you.
- PayPal donations page (PayPal account not required)
- PayPal.me (PayPal account required; no fee for PayPal balance transfers)
- PayPal transfer to romana2252 at gmail dot com if PayPal.me is unavailable.update: there are $88 left to raise for the rent due at the end of today and there are $888 left to raise by tomorrow 5th July AEST (4th July in North America). There’s proof of my situation and condition on this linked side blog. Please help me spread this post
If there are any extra donations, they will also be used for essentials only.
