Just came home from hanging out with a friend as I finished her taxes.
She made $22,000 more than I did (not hard to do at all at this point) and she looked at me like I was crazy and was like, "how?" I was joking around telling her if she kept track of how much she actually spent going out and getting mani/pedis, she'd know what I was talking about. Then later, I was joking around, right when I was getting ready to hit the "file" button and she was pissed. Apparently, for 35 minutes, she had been mad and she said, "this is the second year in a row that the person doing my taxes talk shit to me."
She was severely stoned at the time, so she may not really have meant it, or the weed was telling her I was talking shit, but I wasn't. In fact, I'm amused and a little jealous. I wish I made as much as her, but at the same time, she's always broke and over-draws her account. I was thinking about it on the way home... people certainly all seem to have some sort of story involving money, and how they allow it to control them. Most people I know have no control over their money, either because they don't know how or if they can, or they don't care enough until it's time that they are out and they have no idea where it went, like money has a mind and will of its own.
My dad's been talking to me for YEARS about Dave Ramsey. I think it's about time I actually take a course and read all the books he bought me since one of my best friends is in the middle of her second week of Financial Peace University and going to a Dave Ramsey seminar in The Springs in March. I may make crap for money, but it's time I take matters into my own hands and stop acting like I have no control over it.
Anywho, that's all for that. Have a rough draft of a paper due tomorrow and my first Anatomy lab practical tomorrow. I'm really not prepared for either. Maybe it's about time I take control of my study habits too, and stop pretending I'm at the mercy of my procrastination.
Tomorrow... Just kidding.
besos!

I submitted an application to volunteer for Dave Ramsey's seminar in the Springs. I hope I'll get to do it!
