Broke...again
Man I SO need to learn money saving tactics. The deb ball is in exactly a week and oh MAN have I spent the big bucks on it. Running tally: dress, shoes, bra, dress alterations, double sided sticky tape, inserts for shoes, jewelry, deb present AND birthday presents for three people. That's not including the amount we have to pay for us to actually DO the deb ($250) plus guest payments ($193.50), a dress for my mum and a suit for my brother.
And so, I watch my hard earned cash disappear into the black hole that is somebody else's pocket.
That just means I'm going to have to work really hard this holiday *sigh*. I'll be working my arse off tomorrow so if anybody wants to leave me a large tip (any donation more than $2 is tax deductible), feel free to stop by and fill my pockets.
Exams are also really soon so I have to start slogging my way through countless exam papers and reading bio notes that are unspeakably boring. Oh joy. Chris wrote a post about studying and keeping your goals in sight so don't tell me I didn't warn you.
In other news, I'm running for School Prefect so please vote for me. I'm quite sure I stuffed up the interview, but I'm trying not to think about it. Instead, I will think about how I am failing chemistry. Hmf.
I watched High School Musical II and Crash today. The former was a waste of time seeing as I'm not 12 and I don't have a crush on Zac Efron OR Vanessa Anne Hudgens. I'll admit that IF I had seen it when I was 12, I would probably have enjoyed it. In fact, maybe I'll go so far as to say; some of the songs were a little bit...catchy *cough*. Crash was really good though. I pretty much sobbed my way through the movie, full of racial prejudice and political correctness. It's pretty easy to see why it beat Brokeback Mountain. Gay cowboys don't really do it for me.
Heh. Speaking of gay, I was watching Stargate yesterday night. I don't have a life. But the guys are pretty hot so that justifies everything. I also watched Sailor Moon yesterday night. My first love was Tuxedo Mask. Oh yes, the cartoon character. Watching Sailor Moon helped me get in touch with my inner-child. So if someone toilet-papers your house tonight, it's because I'm a psycho and not because I have a grudge.
The Fungus Rally is on this Saturday. I feel bad because I can't go (for reasons I shall not delve into). Anyhoo, here is a shameless plug. GO, or I will break your legs. Sounds more like a shameless threat, if you get what I mean.
Now I'm tired. Subtle sarcasm really takes it out of a person.
With love,
Mel
