PAYDAY!!!

First paycheck! What to do, what to do...Well first I'm going to put it into a bank account instead of cashing it. But that doesn't mean it's safe. Hopefully I'm getting a debit card. Once I get that I'm going shopping. I need school clothes and clothes for senior pictures. I have a feeling that none of my checks will last long.

If I were a billionaire...

Honestly, if I were to suddenly become a billionaire I would be very boring with my money. I would spend it on things I need first, then maybe spend some on myself if I really wanted something. See, first I would make sure I had enough money set aside for my college then put some money in a college fund for my future children. Then I would set aside some money for a house and a nice car, that way my future is set. I wouldn't buy a mansion or anything like that. Just nicer versions of the basic necessities. I would put a good deal of money in an account for my little brother, because having the issues that he does, my parents can't always afford to get him what he needs and I want to make sure he's taken care of. Finally I would put some in my retirement fund. With whatever is left I will buy myself things that I want (but nothing really big) and save the rest for my kids and emergencies. I mean, I don't want my future family to grow up spoiled but there's no reason for us to struggle if we have the money. If I'm still rich after everything I might even donate some of it. :)

Saint Clair County Community College (SC4)

The SC4 tour was interesting. It got off to a slow start so we spent a lot of time sitting in the lecture hall, but I learned some valuable information about financial aid and after the tour did get on its way I got to see most of the campus. There were only two things I didn't like: our tour guide lost his voice so I couldn't hear him, and it was really hot out so I didn't want to be out walking around.

My First Full Week at WIA

Well last week was my first full week in this program. It wasn't too bad...I got to work on my invitations which were selected to be the actual invitations to the summer luncheon. So that was nice. I'm really starting to get the hang of Photoshop, which makes me feel accomplished. But sadly the one thing that stands out about my week is that I am so TIRED. I'm not used to getting up at 6:00 and to be honest I'm not too happy about that. My lack of energy makes the week go by very slow so even though this was only my first full week, it feels like I've been here and will be here for months. Hopefully I will get used to this schedule soon so I can be more enthusiastic about what I'm doing.
