Sigh.

Disneyland is no longer happening.

Myself and one of the girls going can't afford the trip costs.

I'm just so frustrated with my finances right now.

And I just really wanted to do something awesome for my birthday.

I think I'll just try and do Dicken's Faire this year again.

I just really wanna cry.

I feel like I'm drowning in my bills and it doesn't help that I'm working less because of school.

I've been looking for side jobs to help but it's not easy when you don't know what you're schedule is going to be in a couple of weeks.

:(

Sigh.

Try talking to your bill companies about deferment plans. If you're in school, they may be lenient and let you have some time to not pay. Switch to a pre-paid cell phone instead of a contract one, those cost a lot of money too.

The first year is really tough. You have to be a budgeting guru.

Could you maybe pick up a part-time / flex-time petsitting job, in addition to your current one (er, once you've got the car back, I mean...) I'm just thinking that pet-sitting gigs could be squoze in between class and work hours every now and then - or would it not pay enough for the gas/lost homework time?

I've actually looked into those and they don't really work with my schedule just because I transition from class to work and from work to class with little to no time in between. So I pretty much go 9-9 almost every day. :( But I have been looking for weekend work.

I know its hard now but you are investing for the future, when you graduate with that shiny BAS, your might even get a job AT Disney. so its disappointing now but the future is going to be so bright your going to need shades.

How about we plan a Disney trip to celebrate your graduation?
