This last month was a close call with my expenses. I have been having too much fun and not working enough, and my bank accounts are suffering. But I have a few things that will hopefully be helping my out in this department, despite the many things I still have to spend a good chunk of change on.
#1. Possible second job.
Last week I went on yet another interview with a company a few town over from me that went very well. I will go back for a "second" interview either this or next week. I am hoping that this comes through. It's only a part time position to start out, but the way they were talking to me about it, it will hopefully become full time sooner than later.
in the meantime
#2. It's summertime.
which means my day job is slammin. The restaurant I serve and bartend at EXPLODES in the summer. It doubles in size because we open both our patios, and if the sun is out, everyone and their mother travel to this nice little coastal town to spend the day. And now that I'm mostly done taking time off to do silly fun things that make me happy, I will be back to my 35-40hr/wk schedule.
#3. Budgeting
It's about time I seriously buckled down and made a budget. This way I won't be so prone to impulse buy things like videogames, pretty dresses, and sushi. Wish me luck with this one, because I love spending my money on videogames, pretty dresses, and sushi.
Mostly sushi.
