Wonder

Do you ever wonder what it all really means?  What is the purpose to work like we so for money. Then we spend this money sushi easily so quickly. It just makes me wonder sometimes if we have it all wrong.

With the technology...FINALLY

So I've finally got a new phone! I intend to be more active on my blog now that I can do it I n the go! I'm so excited :-)

Vacation Dreaming

Since early 2012 one of my close friends kept talking about she couldn't wait to go back to Hawaii and I kept telling her let me know I want to go.  Well she started planning things for March 2013 and I was excited! 

However I also moved out on my own in early 2012 so there were a lot of changes to my budget.  Now getting into December she nicely let me know that she needed me to confirm since the condo needed to be paid by the end of the year.  Rather than being childish and thinking about what I wanted to do, which was of course go to Hawaii.  I put some real thought into the cost. 

Well I would need to come up with $300 by the end of the year for the condo.  Then I would soon need to work on getting a plane ticket which would run about $1000.  Then of course comes the expenses of the actual trip and maintaining a budget for 7 days of vacation plus the preplanning which always involves buying a few special vacation clothes.  I was having a panic attack thinking about all of the expenses, which is when in my adult responsible mind I thought to myself, this trip isn't possible. 

If I were still at home and didn't max out my credit card I would probably be ok, but I'm not at home and owe a lot of money out.  I decided to skip this trip and refocus my attention on my ever climbing debt and get it under control.  I owe a few people some money along with a student loan that is almost done and my credit cards.  The next few months are going to be hard but going to be worth it when it's all paid off.

Being a responsible adult really sucks sometimes!

Small Walgreens Beauty Haul

So I went in for concealer (which I didn't get) but found these other deals impossible to pass up. Wet n wild were buy 1 get one half off! The Revlon palettes were half off and buy one get another an additional half off. I was in need some serious nail and cuticle cream because cashiering is jacking my hands and nails up! So got this hard as hoof nail strengthening cream for half off. Its really thick and smells great! Then I got a black polish with a skinny brush because I'm going to the Bulls game tomorrow!!! :) So I'm going to do my nails black and red. So for all of that it was like $23...not bad!
