So far so good 2 years ago

Well I’ve been doing good lately. The only non-essential thing I have spent money on recently has been my violin lesson which I think was really worth it. As for all the extra cash I’ve been getting like GST cheque, random money owed by roommates, ect… has all been going to my debt. I’m quite surprised with myself actually. I’ve not been allowing myself to spend on things here and there like movies or ordering out. The groceries I do now are VERY minimal and I try to just live off of what I already had. I know this sounds silly but today I decided to spoil myself by getting some fresh veggies for a stir-fry… How many people spoil themselves by buying brussel sprouts and broccoli?! Oh and silken tofu for a ‘tofu shake’ (like a milk shake, but no milk or icecream).

Anyway, I just thought I’d make an entry to note my progress. I just hope I can keep it up.

Definately looks like this isn’t gonna happen for quite a while. I want to go back to school and that’s just gonna add to my debt instead of take away from it. I know I messed up my first year of school and last semester, but I think a second shot at it might make a difference. I know I have bad spending habbits and I am trying to break them. I beleive I’m doing better than I used to. My biggest weakness was books and now I’m starting to get used to getting books at the library instead of buying. It’s just really hard when you love books as much as I do.
