Life Update
I guess it's time I add to this thing, eh?
The reason for lack of updates is that nothing particularly interesting has been going on in my life as of late. It's the usual grind coupled with family and friends gatherings. But all in all it's been relatively quiet for me.
Though the one thing that's been on my mind lately is the cost of living. Being in a nice apartment all on my own takes its toll when it comes to rent. Now, I can still handle it all, but money is getting tighter as time rolls on. Luckily I don't eat much, which cuts down on food costs, but rent coupled with car payment and electricity, amongst my other expenses, is starting to hurt my wallet. My martial arts teaching is putting weekly spending money in my pocket, but the cash-flow from my job can be a bit better. I may need to ask for a raise soon. Or at least travel somewhere again for a bit more extra money, though I don't like being away from my home.
What gets me is my spending habits. I have a nasty habit of buying games and such which I don't need, thinking that I can budget it all. I have to force myself to cut back for a while, at least until I feel comfortable with my income again.
But you guys probably don't want to read my money worries. I'm sure the vast majority of you have similar issues.
Other than than, there's not much else to say. Same old routine week after week. I don't mind it much, but something could happen to break up the monotony every once in a while.
