So since i last updated my dad had his surgery. Everything went good. He's still really soar and he has to wear his neck brace for about 2 months which sucks.
I've been working a bunch. It's getting towards xmas time so i'm thinkin that i'll get more hours which isnt bad. I've been doing better w/ balancing homework and work. Although this weekend i thought my balancing act was failing me. Yeah this weekend i needed to do a math review, an econ review, read about 200 pages in my history book, write a 4-6 page paper on the book and read about 75-100 in my english book. That's on top of working about 20 hours this weekend. But I got the econ done thursday. History and Math i got done tonight. I didnt get my english reading done on time but i dont think that'll hurt me. And my history paper isnt due till wednesday so i'll be doing that all tomorrow night.
So today i registered for class and payed and what not and then realized that i only have about $200 avaliable in my account. So i started bawling thinkin that i'm not gonna have enough money to pay for my bills coming in the next couple of months. So i called the bank about 3 times and the service center once cause ppl are retarded. Well after that whole ordeal dad gives me $650 in savings bonds. For some odd reason i felt bad cashing them in. I mean they'll develop more interest in my account but for some odd reason i felt like it was mom and dad giving me money. I dunno i mean it is MY money, all of them were made out to me. It was weird. Well needless to say i am changing my ways when it comes to spending. No more implusive buys EVER. Or until i get to the point where i feel i have my savings where i want it to be and i feel i have the extra money to spend. I have cut down on my impulse fast food buys. The only time i get fast food now is when i work and get a lunch. Which is like once maybe twice a week. So i think i'm set there. I NEED to change or i'm gonna go broke.
