$10.75





Well, as i was putting the finishing touches on my assignment i then decided to have a shower....i thought, i have time...as it approached 12 o'clock...as i got out and dressed at 12 exaclty....it suddenly dawned on me that my lecture actually started at 12:30pm instead of a later time which i was thinking of....don't ask me why i was thinking of a different time...maybe cause my thursday lecture starts at 1pm...

Anyway, i had to get dressed quickly and chuck the things i needed into my bag (making sure i had my big assignment with me!) and walked out the door, hailed the first cab i found and got in...

He started for the cross city tunnel...i said for him to go along william street (no toll) but he said that there had been a big crash on william street and he told me all the details...( i believed him...he said he had come from there not long ago...) so we went and got there well...only 8 dollars something...then he pushed for the toll...$10.75 ( if i remember rightly) i paid and went out and got there on time to hand my assignment in...

so out of my $20 dollar budget i have spent

$10.75

and i haven't even got my crisp note out of the bank. The rest of the week may be hard...especially with mothers day coming up but i don't think i will count that..i will have to eat at home...and watch what i spend...my aim is to when i get paid after thursday...to have money which to add the new pay too...

I was wondering whether to include this little slip in my count of $20 but i thought if i don't...then i wont with anything else..
I think this will be a learning experience...i mnight go over this week..but then i can try and do better next week...

Anyway...blogging out... :p

I guess I'm not getting any special presents for a while :P

BTW, do you count bus money? and you'll have to catch the train tomorrow....what about gym?

you MUST get your Mum and Mother's Day present....it is compulsory!!

i will get you presents every so often...may not include them all :p

no i don't count bus money or anything that comes directly out of my bank account...

of course i'm going to get mum a present...i have an idea lined up...but when i thought of it..you could put effort into a present and not use that much money if you needed to...and besides...i said i wasn't counting that...

there are a lot of rules and exceptions to this i'm finding..
