i am officially broke until midnight tonight, or tomorrow early morning, which it is, i don't know.
i bought my plane ticket yesterday... $225. eepers. the tickets kept getting higher and higher. and Priceline.com was UBER expensive! so i went through Expedia and got a better deal, without having to name my own price. good deal.
so tomorrow i'm going to be paying bills, i need to call the Saturn dealership to get an oil change in my car tomorrow, and then i need to SAVE SAVE SAVE!
i figured out that if i set aside $500 every month, i'll have my $2500 by July, so if i put away maybe $700 and i'll be better.
and i'm sure i've made a post about that laptop that i'm wanting real bad... there are a few things i want to get before i leave. that being one of them. thing is... the laptop is $1600. much more than the Toshiba i wanted, but its a laptop that converts into a TABLET. something i've wanted for like, FOREVER. and plus, i can do more digital art! i could save $$$ on art supplies... it would be easier to do my brothers art for his team, if he still wanted me to do as such.
i've got my car payment in, it finally went through, i gotta write my dad a $189 check for insurance and my phone, i owe my mother $56, then i'm going to do $50 on my Penny's card, so thats like... $300 rounded up there, and i'm hoping to get atleast $800 this check, so... after all that, i can put away some in my car account, slap some into savings and maybe have about $100 to spend. i might go this afternoon out shopping with Domi before the birthday celebration for my mother and sister... i really want to get some new stockings and some WWII-esque patches for my military green suit. i think it would be pretty spiffy.
another thing that i want before i move: a new stereo. the one i have is seriously on the fritz and i've already spotted one that i want. its vintage looking, like, 1940's styled radio, with a CD player, tape deck, AND, a WORKING 3-speed TURNTABLE. so, i should keep an eye out for some old Bobby Darin records, chyah.
i also want some furniture. the other day i handed my dad the bed design, with measurements, told him i want a sturdy wood that can use a dark stain and the like (which i'm sure won't be hard) and then to give me a price quote for the materials. i also want drawers underneath the bed. yay for storage. and something i have ALWAYS wanted... i hate standing infront of a bathroom mirror to do my makeup... and i hate having my hair product all over the place, stored in boxes in plain sight, and the same with my makeup! so, what do i want? i want a vanity. i would adore having one. with drawers to seperate my hair and makeup stuff, keep it all hidden away, a place to keep all my jewelry and the like so its not scattered from here to Timbuktu (did i spell that right...?). i've always wanted a vanity... with a nice little chair i can drape my robe over... yep. i'm weird, i think of the small details... which reminds me, i need to find the sash to my housecoat... my teal one. the one that was my Gran's... hmmm. needs to be found. i love having hand me downs from generations past... like my Gran's housecoat, and my mom's sweater from the 1970's... i wish i had more!
and i want these shoes...
