The good, the bad, the ugly...

November 6th, 2006 at 04:14 pm

Well, my day started out rather groggy (me and BF were up just a little too late last night), but on the way to class I found $0.40 on the ground! woo! That went in my coin jar for the $20 challenge. Class went well. Now the ugly...

Library Fines

grr. I love using the library, because borrowing is free... when you return the movies back on time. grumble. At any rate, that was an $11 fee. The good news is that I saw the whole sheet of people who paid fees today, and someone owed them $66! I'm glad I didn't wait THAT long...

Made my monday bank run. I deposited $50 into my checking and the remaining $74 into my savings. I was also happy to see that my savings has accumulated another $.69 in interest. woo! Every little bit helps, of course.

At any rate, I've taken a look over my records, and I honestly have to give myself a pat on the back. I think it's amazing how this community has helped me take control of my finances! I'm just a kid, and I haven't done enough over the past couple years. I'm glad I found you guys before I ventured out on my own. Thanks! Smile This is my favorite spot to blog, and will remain so for years to come, I'm sure!

    Great job on the savings!! You'll get that library thing under control.

    Money on the ground and interest accruing - you're doing IT!! Lovin' it!!

    library late fees = your little contribution to their ability to stay open!

    OT: we play a poker game called 'the good, the bad, and the ugly', it's way fun *g*

    Good for you! Some of my college roommates didn't even know how to open a bank account, much less how to manage one. They still believed "bank" = daddy's credit card/pocket. You sound much more prepared. Oh, BTW have you tried borrowing books from your school's library? Yes, they have fiction buried in those stacks, plus the due dates were three weeks for current books, but 1 entire yr for all other books!

    hehe. That's the fine I payed. I very often check out movies because they have a great selection. I'm not sure about the year long check out allowance, but I know it's at least a month... hmm.
