Stopping.. now. I think.
Posted by: curiousillusion on: January 12, 2010
Sigh. Online shopping is just too easy. Really easy. And I keep falling into that easy trap and buying stuff I don’t need. I blame project 365.
Seriously though, I was doing really well spending-wise at the beginning of the year. I knew that if I did a good job of managing my money, by the [...]
Merlin and the last of Halloween…
Posted by: curiousillusion on: October 31, 2009
So I was going to blog about a money situation that arose, but I just got lectured by my parents AND a friend so I don’t feel l like going there.
Then I was gonna blog about my Thanksgiving stuff but I figure I’ll wait til tomorrow (aka actually November) for that.
So instead I share with [...]
That dslr issue
Posted by: curiousillusion on: September 15, 2009
So on the heels of my previous post on my financial woes, the whole dslr thing has been bothering me. I have been wanting one for a while, for ages (since February?), but a lot has made me put that on the back burner. Primarily because I’m broke and have had to clean out most [...]
Confession
Posted by: curiousillusion on: September 14, 2009
Sigh. I feel guilty. Really guilty.
Let’s start from the beginning: January 1st. I made a resolution, if you will, regarding my finances. My resolution consisted of saving money from each paycheck, not using any money from my savings account, and to stop using my credit cards – I really want to pay them down/off.
I was [...]
Randomness, randomness, everywhere
Posted by: curiousillusion on: July 29, 2009
Today makes 3 months that I’ve been blogging. This is post #101. I’ve had a blast blogging, I love it and I love getting to know so many other bloggers… y’all are so much fun. However, I’ve been blogging daily for the past 3 months and I think that in order to not completely wear [...]
Confessions of this shopaholic
Posted by: curiousillusion on: July 9, 2009
Sigh. I woke up this morning and realized it was payday (for some reason, my bank gets the funds a day before most banks). I paid bills and put money into savings just like a good little girl… and then when I realized I actually had quite a bit of money to last me the [...]
Camera excitement and gym pain
Posted by: curiousillusion on: July 6, 2009
So today I got the most exciting email from my mom… asking me: “do you want to start looking for the camera… the long awaited graduation present from me to you?” Eeek, really?? She’s not paying for all of it, maybe half of it… and the rest of the money will come from my savings/the [...]
I’m a sucker.
Posted by: curiousillusion on: July 1, 2009
Sigh. I mean, I guess I always knew I was a sucker but now it’s official. Why? Well, let me back up..
I signed up for the gym on Monday but today was my first day actually going. Having never been to a gym before, I didn’t know how to operate *anything* and since my membership [...]
On working out and getting up close
Posted by: curiousillusion on: June 28, 2009
So I’ve been slacking off on the exercise, lately. The last time I went to do my walk/jog thing was Monday, only because Wednesday I went to see Wicked and Thursday I went out with some friends for the last time. Friday and Saturday were spent moving, and I was completely exhausted for all that.
But [...]
