Yuppiiiii, hihihh~Where I live... there is something called 'Special Week' because every year in the first week of July EVERYTHING is on special. This was the time I've been waiting for since the very end of winter season. Yesturday I went shopping with my boyfriend for the things I needed and got mostly everything except for some minor things but I can become creative and manage some how.. which I always do because there are only solutions in life as my father always used to tell me. Then I ended the night with meeting some friends to go see the movie Wanted-starring Angelina Jolie which my boyfriend thought was funny because on the advertisment and posters she's always there and is the primary in the photo but in the movie she is secondary which I didn't care about. It looked like a good movie so I watched it. I liked it but it was pretty predictable.

BTW I've been gone for sometime now because some very bad family matters have occured and then I had summer school which I am proud to say that I ACED IT!!! hahaha, Also my mom which is my boss was in a pinch because her assistant quit last minute and since I always wanted to go help for somehting called the Summer Camp which we organize for poor kids where I work she asked if I could go and I reassured her and went. I had a great time but geeez those kids killed me hahaha. Since I performed well and the kids loved me and I seem to have enjoyed it I am going again for 2 more weeks in August. Not to mention I'll be working alone starting next week because my co-worker is going on vacation next week. When she comes back we will have formed another person to help her out while I go on vacation when she gets back but for 2 weeks.

Tina is gone now in Morrocco and I miss her already. I met her quickly for lunch on monday during my break at work and we spoke on the phone together as she was in the airport. MESSAGE TO TINA: Be safe and don't you dare come back in more than one piece hahaha.. also don't for get to get me a keychain from there! =)

Financially my mom put me down since I went shopping yesturday and my money has gone down a lot and telling me that I have no chance for university. I told her I'll make it through as usual and she rolled her eyes. So I did my spending but now I have to save......... only thing is I am suppose to get a labtop in August before I go to school. The GOOD thing is I can get the financial plan at future shop to pay per month instead of at the counter in one shot. The BAD thing is that once school has started because for my schedual I can only work 2 days 3.5 hours both so I won't be making a lot of money.

That's pretty much everything I had to say in a breif blog entry hahaha even though it ended up being longer than expected. Thank you for reading if you did and if you have time leave me you comments on this blog. It helps!

Alright for my savings. I was able to convince my dad in not having to pay him back so it can be my birthday gift because if you didn't notice I want to buy a labtop. Yes it is a macbook pro and many people are against it but all the other brands I've tried didn't work and didn't have my requirements. My boyfriend has a macbook and he lent it to me a few time and I fell in love with it ever since. Not to mention it has the programs I need for my band job. I can finally work properly on the music videos and what not. Not to mention I don't need any anti-virus programs and damn it NEVER crashes woohoo! Also if I ever need windows I can instal it as well. It isn't as good but it's mostly for work and band so tada. It kinda sucks that I have no solitary though T_T lol. I play minor games which I checked and CAN play on macbook pro ^_^ I also checked that I can pay a certain amount of money per month with my credit card so I won't have to pay in one shot and I can save for university which I will be saving for from now on. I will still buy myself new clothes because I tend to wear my clothes till they use up horribly so I have no choice but to buy new clothes after a while but it is the first time I don't spend on myself like I used to. In my mind now all I think about is SAVEEEEEEEEE! Now I'll stop here and tell you about my 20$ challenge which I decided to start doing for a week now.

I just got back home from school and checked the mail. I FINALLY RECIEVED MY TAX REFUNDS.
I got 729.94$ from the Gov. Can. and 414.68$ from Rev. Que. adding to 8.07$ that I had surviving in my bank account >.> that makes a total of 1,152.69$.
I'm gonna take out a total of 700$ leaving me with 458.69$ DON'T TOUCH money in the bank for simply saving. I'm gonna pay:

-mama back her 300$ for the plane tickets=300$
-papa for this months bus pass and summer school=284$
-Tina Yang for the missing cash for summer school=40$
-Jinxi's birthday gift which I am chipping in with my boyfriend and friends to buy him a big gift=20$
-50$=myself(upcoming birthday at a club)
*I won't be spending 50$ at the club but It's for food in school too and any supplies I may need for my summer school.

The cash in the bank I don't want to take out yet for my savings, for my trip to florida and the memento's because It's for life saving risks and simply because I feel better when I have some left over cash in my bank and not just like 50$ left over cash lol

But once I get back to work on May 20 and I get my first pay check I will start taking out 20$ for my trip per pay... or maybe 40$ because I make a lot. I'm a supervisor where I work and I've been working there for I THINK 5 years now if not more. It's for poor children. It's a great cause and MY PARENTS are the BOSS. So I work for my parents... Only problem is they are harder on me than anyone else so I can show the example to others.

Thats all for today haha. 2 entries in one day, NICE!

Well to start off, When I first started in saving and doing great in school I get kicked in the butt with Mono which is transfered by saliva when you share food drinks or by kissing. I just started saving for fun and then this hit me. It consumed all of my energy and money. I am still out of work but will be going back May 20, 2008. I went back to school but I am having a great deal of difficulty in catching up. luckily I have reliable friends to help me as much as the possibly can. I owe my parents money, and i need to get a lot of late birthday and one Christmas gift for my sister. I'll start by paying back my depth and then move on to saving for my trip to Florida.. I want to by souvenirs for my close friends as they've done for me. In the same time, I will save up for my upcoming semester in college to be able to pay for my classes and buy the supplies/books necessary.
Wish me luck =)

PS I want to thank Tina Yang for showing me this site
