The penniless student

I finally did the dreaded deed. I emailed my old bosses about working again. It's not dreaded on the fact of working there because I loved it. It's just a job. Sigh. Oh well. Life is what it is right. And I REALLY need money..... even dad said "Ruth....um....well....you...ahem....'sigh', need to be careful with your money now, you know, now that you are in school and all......... Student loans. Yeah."

"Um. Yes. thanks dad? I realize that........................................................ahem. Okay. Good chat. See ya." And then I went to the mall.

HA. I can't help it. I LOVE giving gifts. I love shopping. I want more clothes and shoes and a new bag, or a few..... I feel addicted. Luckily this trip, I bought two gifts, and then a cardigan for myself. but I needed that cardigan. Honest. Would I lie about such a sacred thing? I've asked my mother almost 9 times now to borrow her black cardigan and she always "leaves it at work". So. I figured. Well, since I couldn't find one on my 'back to school' shopping event, I could look again. And luckily found one! Woot woot! So now my new dresses have a cute little sweater to put over them. Oh the joys in my life!!

So. I figure even if I make $150.00 a month, it's $150.00 a month that I DON'T have right now!! Plus, you never know. It someone would get engaged already by I may need that money to go on a trip to and we all know that money isn't growing on trees right now. I blame Bush.

Sigh. I just don't want to work somewhere lame. No offense to all you fast food/retail workers, we appreciate your hard dedicated work, but how can I go from my old job, to that? It would be a killer!

Well, off to psychology....

Yours truly,

The penniless student,
