Five Things ......
1. I am broke… but today I spent three hours making a fake "wish list" of the things I would buy if I had a little extra money. I found everything on my list online and minimized the pages they were on. I proceeded to make an excel spread sheet of the things I wanted, their cost and the web page where I found the item at the cheapest price. Then I broke the 18 item list down into 5 categories being... shoes, clothes, jackets, outdoors, and extra. I added up how much the items cost all together: 725 dollars. Then figured the average costs of the items which were about 40 bucks a piece and how much it would cost me if a month if I got all of these items and paid for them over a year, about 65 a month. Why did I tell you this... because I am retarded. I can't afford to get any of that stuff... yet I spent three hours today dreaming about it. I do stupid random stuff like that all the time... I could have been playing in the snow.2. Rather than proving I exist, I am proving that I know how to procrastinate. I still haven't started on my paper.
3. I am going to fill out my 1040 EZ today. The government owes me around 200 bucks! ... I owe ETSU about 300 and Visa about 500...... Yea... : ( who can guess where my refund is going???
4. I am learning to Kayak in the CPA pool! The first class was really fun but I am finding it hard to justify taking this class because my parents think I should be working on Thursday nights not playing in the pool. I think they maybe be right.
5. I apologize that this post was mainly concerning money, I know its a sucky, depressing subject.

"When I think of America, I think of a sea of people from extremely different back grounds bowing down to one thing. That one thing is money. People worship the image that “money” creates. Money sells a lifestyle and conditions everyday people to think they need “things/stuff” to satisfy and gratify them. Materialism has surpassed any religious or political belief that has ever conditioned the American mind. " - Me... in the philosophy paper I just turned in two days ago... lol, i am such a hypocrite... : )

I hate to be tagged...i guess this counts as the second time. I am wondering if the pics are things you are wanting. And kayaking is not really a waste of time...actually it probably is...get into something extreme that you can do anywhere...like streaking...hahahaha
TIM!!!!!!!!!
Oh, and I meant to say that Kayaking isn't a waste of time. You will never have enough money (it's just the nature of the beast) no matter how much you work. I think learning something new is far more important. "Seize the Day"!
While Tim does have a point that streaking is extreme, fun, and you can do it anywhere, I'm not sure if it's for you, Amber... And Kayaking sounds fun, extreme, and you can do it almost anywhere. hehe

OK Amber...are you ever going to post again???
Boring.....Boring.....Boring....
OK--I'm impressed and with the last post too. Descartes and Amber in the same sentence--very cool.
