I'm doing 20 things
I have finally learned how to save more money. The answer is complex and took quite some time to figure out. Ready for this? The answer is: SPEND LESS. Yes, that is it. I have actually started doing this and am finding it fairly easy to do – you see, I have this goal to buy a sailboat (a small, safe one) and go cruising any which way the wind may be blowing. Every time I want to spend money on something, I just think about how much closer my goal will be if I don’t. Simple, eh?

I have bought a laptop. Finally. I bought an HP Pavilion DVsomethingorother and it rocks! I actually didn’t buy it because it has a DVD burner (I’ll never use), or 100 GB hard drive (way too much for me). I bought it because it was relatively small compared to most of the other ones out there. I’m happy with it.
