How I did it
How to get out of debt
It took me
1 year
It made me
whatever...

How I did it: Paid off what I needed to, and contested what wasn't right on my report. I saved and paid, saved and paid. And, eventually it was over with. I recommend doing it because it's pretty nice not to owe anyone anything. Read how I did it…

Moved to LA for my boyfriend. 5 months ago

He’s great, but the people here are awful. Outside of our group of friends, everyone here is really self-absorbed, things are retardedly expensive, and everyone drives like an asshole.
Perhaps, because I am from the south, I don’t quite mesh here, but I could swear up and down there is nothing but rudeness and hubris. AND, everybody’s extremely politically correct- and aggressive about it. If you move( to LA, at least), expect a good number of people to have their heads up their own asses… just a warning.

get a job
I need to get a fooookin job. 13 months ago

My city is really hard to find employment in, but I need to do it in order to get my finances straight so I can take a trip to Sydney to see my friend.
Just as well, I have aspirations of studying abroad, so I need to make saving (another goal of mine) a priority.
Unfortunately…money does not grown on trees- so I clearly need a job, stat!
