Worry

Image by s e l v i n via FlickrI am worried about this 3,000 word paper due in two weeks. I'm glad I have an outline and a direction to go in but the paper is about two books that didn't seem terribly interesting, so I'm sludging through the important parts. I have to keep reminding myself that the best way to get it done is just to do it...instead of blogging. hah!

Also, in trying to get current with my credit cards, I scheduled a $271 automatic withdrawal for the 13th. I know I'll have enough by then, I just gotta be careful...

I think the anxiety is because I just got paid for last month and already all of it got sucked up in paying down credit card debt. But I guess that's the whole point, because then I'll have that extra cash lying around every month once I get my debts lowered. Including my car loan, which is under my mom's name, and not including my student debt, which doesn't need to be paid until I graduate, I have under $16,000 in debt. Here goes!

However, I am glad, that unlike last year, my life is coming together again - I am employed, I'm back in school, and I'm beginning to pay my own bills again. By next month, I won't be getting calls all day from credit card companies. Whoohoo!

Also, my boyfriend and I are planning a camping trip to Joshua Tree, which will be beautiful since it's spring and the wildflowers will be out. I can't wait! There was an option to go to a rave also over Spring Break, but I'm glad we'll just be camping. I'm still recuperating from the last rave...
