busy to complete this now. I go to school full time, and apparently for the next month and a bit I am required to work 40-50 hours instead of my usual 30 hours. Once things go back to normal I will re-open it.

How I did it
It made me
good 
How I did it: Well I began watering it daily last week. Then it caught on and the cleaner started doing it before I even got a chance. Yesterday I got asked about the rain report and I mentioned it hasn't rained for awhile. I guess my Uncle finally realised its up to us not nature to nourish these plants now. So I am glad to see everyone is up to working on the garden. Though we did lose the peppermint. I guess I was too late :( Read how I did it…
It made me
smart
How I did it: Well, I read somewhere that the free rice website was helpful. I also signed up to recieve the word of the day. Its pretty fun learning new words! Read how I did it…
It made me
feel better
How I did it: Every since I have left home for the city my spending habbits kind of got out of hand. But when I had no income I came to realize what I was doing when I couldn't pay the credit card bill. I don't even know how I have blown so much money over the years. Anyway, I learned not to blow your entire paycheck at once. don't buy things you don't need and can't really afford. It is ok to splurge once in awhile, not all … Read how I did it…

as I have full time school, and full time work apparently…. but once things go back to normal and I am only working 30 hours a week again (not 40-50) I will put this goal back.
This is becoming very challenging

and I wish I just had more time. This week has been super crazy, next week we have guests and I have been warned I will be working a lot. Then in November they are going to Paris, leaving me with full time care of their kids about about 10-14 days (they haven’t confirmed the total days yet to me). Also, I still don’t have my own computer. I think I am going to need to make the splurge at the end of this paycheck though I can’t quite afford to do so yet. The limited access has also damaged my computer time. The only computer I have full access too (which I am currently on) won’t open any of the files for my school work and I cannot download the programs to do so because the kids have messed up there comuter.
Anyway, that is my frustrated Rant. But seriously. I am really behind and I can’t afford to be. It just angers and frustrates me.
