Money Money Money

I have been wanting a job since I started school in August, but my mom thought that it would be best if I focused on school. I agreed with her and stopped looking. Being that school was almost over I got a job at a daycare working part time. It's great. I love working with kids. When I got the job I was like "Yes now I can buy anything I want". I was so sick of asking my mom for money every minute, but she didn't mind as long as I was doing good in school. However, now that I have my own money it seems to go very quick and I had a plan for managing my money. That plan went quickly out the window. You never really realize how quick your money goes when its been given to you cause you can always ask for more. Well I can't ask for more I have to wait to the next pay period. It sucks having a job sometimes because now I have to buy whatever I want, I can't ask my mom for it anymore.

Car For Sale

My friend Akeem had told me he was saving up to buy him a car and this was a month ago. So, he calls me the other and said "guess what? I bought my car". I was happy for him until he told me he bought it from this guy off craigslist. Now from what I've heard craigslist is not the place to buy anything. I asked him why would he do something stupid like that. He could have just bought it from a used car lot. Being that he has no one to guide him, he did something that wasn't very smart. He went to the guy house and picked it up. He did met the person he bought it from. He drove away with the car. He was like a block from his house when the car broke down. Now he has been calling and calling this guy, but the guy is not returning any of his calls. He is now stuck with a car that doesn't work. I would advise everyone not to , I repeat NOT to buy anything off craigslist.

Another Year !

So my birthday is in June and I still have not decided what I wanted to do. Yes, I know I'm only turning 19, but since I didn't do anything for my 18th birthday I want to do something this year. Now that I have a job it's making it difficult to celebrate with my friends in New York. That's where I want to be. I wanted to have a bonfire at the beach, but since that's illegal I have to plan something else. Hopefully everything will turn out okay.

SCARYYYYY

Since my brother and sisters were out of school for a week, my mom took us to Busch Gardens. Its been a while since i had went so i didn't remember the rides they had there. My brother, sister and I went on this ride called the Lochness Monster and OMGGG that ride was crazy. Afterwards I felt a little sick. The first time was fun cause you didn't know what to expect, but the second time we got on I had to close my eyes. However, nothing beats the Griffion. On that ride you take a big drop and its long, i was scared before I got on it. My eyes and mouth was closed I couldn't bare to open them and then I had the nerve to get on it again. Overall I had a blast. My mother wanted to go back this weekend, thankful my cousin had a birthday party. I think I need to give those rides a rest.

Going CRAZYYYY

Let me start off by saying I have only had one job and I'm 18. My first job was working at a daycare. Tanya my cousin was the director there so I got the job easy, no problem. I worked there for 3 years, until it was time for me to start college. That was the only job I had. I never knew how hard it was getting a job until now. I mean the searching process was hard, after that the rest is a piece of cake. However, I had been looking since the beginning of school and I just got a job. I only had experience in daycare/childcare, that's what I was looking into. My moms friend had got me an interview with her job. I go in for the interview and nailed, but I hadn't heard from the job. I believe almost 3weeks had passed. I knew the needed help immediately, so I was wondering what was taking so long for them to call me back. My family and I had went to my aunt's house for the weekend and I'm laying in the with my cousins and my phone rings as I'm praying that I would get the job. I couldn't believe it, the job was calling to hire I was so excited. I started jumping up and down on the bed. I was so stressed out about finding a job because I wanted to do something when I wasn't in school. Also because I was so use to having my own money, I didn't have to ask my parents for money. Without a job that's what I was doing, although my mother didn't mind. I just wanted to have my own.
