Letter Writing

So I am sitting with my stationary/card collection, writing snail mail. I was asked, by a friend, who I was writing to. I am writing to friends! Granted, I could just text them, email them, facebook them, or call them, but there is just a beauty in snail mail. It's beautiful. I feel that with snail mail, I write notes to friends to show them that I love and care for them.

Blogging. . .

and making money :) I'm blogging for my brother, Daniel Del Real and his business. Its exciting! :) yay baby paychecks!

Paycheck

I need a paycheck! I just looked at my bank accounts. . .my checking has less than the balances on my credit cars. (BofA Credit Card and a Victoria's Secret Credit Card).

Silly school fees and semi-annual sale.

I thankfully have one small paycheck to deposit (yay staffing open houses for money last weekend!) that will cover my credit card bills. But how am I going to survive during my visit to Texas in 25 days?!

I also just realized how much I spent last year. I thought I had saved quiet a bit from the money I earned at Heinz, but I didn't! (thank you w-2s for informing me on how much I made) I also thought I had saved some of my Southwestern tuition refund. . .only to find out that I didn't save much (Being a senior was expensive!)

I am seriously super frugal. . .how did I spend soo much money in 2010?! I wish I had continued logging my expenses last year on my excel spread sheet; I do know that over a span of three months (July to October) I spent nearly $500 on gas, $600 on school fees and textbooks, and $3,000 overall. wow.

Givesmehope

I really really really appreciate the givesmehope website! It is such an encouraging page that helps me smile even when I don't feel like smiling.

Space

A facebook "friend" (aka an acquaintance from high school) posted this on her profile a couple of minutes ago.

"If someone wants to be apart of your life, they'll make an effort to be in it. . .don't bother reserving a space in your heart for someone who dosen't make an effort to stay"

Unfortunately, I think I have "reserved a space" for friends who don't care about me. :/ I wish I could fill that space with someone else, but I can't :(

SOTU

"I might not come from a family of college graduates, but I will be the [one of the] first to get my degree. I might not know those people in trouble, but I think I can help them, and INEED to TRY!"

Fake

I am finding fake people really annoying.

I am also finding acquaintances really frustrating.

oh, oh, and I am also really hurt by people who I considered to be some of my best friends who now don't respond to my snail mail, emails or Facebook messages. I think what bothers me the most is that I care that they aren't responding-when they obviously don't care about me.
