Sometimes...

I wish I could just fly away...

I wish I would've enrolled in a foreign exchange program when I was in college... my college Spanish teacher told us how he lived in Mexico for like 3 or 4 years & just immersed himself in the culture, & that's how he learned the language... I love stories like that!

Insanity

I get tired of hearing the definition of insanity... so many people have used it as their FB statuses... I think it annoys me b/c it's so simple, it's almost too simple... but, it is sooooooooooooooooo true... & I've discovered that I've driven myself insane w/ the same silly mistakes... I almost want to believe that I just have dumb luck... that maybe it isn't my fault... maybe, it's b/c of some unknown being or universe that has chosen me to torture... but, it's not... it's just me being dumb & unbelievably careless... my carelessness NEVER ceases to amaze me... it's amazing how many different areas of my life it affects... one of the most important areas is finances...

With that said, I've decided that I need to go on a spending freeze... SO, I'm pledging to not spend money on any items other than necessities, i.e., bills, food, & gas... & food is limited to cooked meals... I really need to understand where my money is going & how I can stop it from leaving my hands/bank accounts so quickly... SO, wish me luck... I'm sure it will be hard, but it MUST be done...

Hmmm... to make it even more interested, I think I may try a fast as well... going to have to find a good & reasonable one... fasting is so hard for me... not that I really enjoy eating, but fasting just makes it 20 times more difficult to make food choices...

The spend freeze will begin tomorrow... I may wait til Monday to begin the fast.
