I wrote that one of my resolutions would be to be better with my money and I think that is a great segue into today's post about me being broke. It's true, I am broker than my kindergarten self's arm when my little sister fell on it and it snapped in half. I gave it a little bit of thought and here are a few ways I will be better with my money in 2014!
1. Do not buy drinks at bars - that's what sleezy guys are for, right?! I'm just kidding about that. It's time for me to not feel the need to drink so much to have a good time. On New Year's Eve I tried this out and I still had a great time! I wasn't hungover the next day either. Win.
2. DO NOT be tempted by Target - oooooh I said the T word. I love Target. Who doesn't? It is a magical place filled with magical things that would fill my life with magic and wonder. I'll go in and find at least one thing that I don't need that I end up buying. My roommate and I are going to police each other more next semester. I feel like she will be saying something like, "C'mon Caroline! You need to buy food later on! You don't need that ________ (random thing found at Target)" a few times in the near future. I do need to get razors though.
3. Plan out the food I want to eat at home and then what I'll be eating on campus - I do still have a meal plan so some of my meals are taken care of but there are also many meals that are not taken care of. I need to plan out in advance the meals that won't be eaten on campus and make sure I don't go to the grocery store and just go crazy over jalapeño flavored kettle chips. Omg...why did I just write that. *craves commence*
4. Shop my closet - I don't need new clothes. I just need to figure out how to wear my old clothes in new ways! I do need a coat though...bad.
Well there ya have it! The 4 ways I will attempt to save myself money in the spring semester/2014! Soon I will make posts with more pictures. I promise.
Until tomorrow,
Caroline
