money woes and bad ideas
Sunday, March 26th, 2006So, Easter break (that’s spring break for those of you on the top of the planet) is coming up, right round easter, oddly enough, and I have to decide what to do.
So far my choices seem to be
a) stay in palmy, and do stuff here (like study for my o-chem mid term)
b) Spend one week in palmy, studying, and one week travelling around NZ
c) spend both weeks “studying” *while* travelling around NZ.
A. is no fun, C is a really bad idea- no one studies o-chem while they have anything better to do, at all.
So it looks like choice b is it- only…
Ok, I’m going to be here for 5 years, right? And I am living on student loans, and pretty much maxed out my credit cards to pay for the first semester of classes, and get over here, so that’s not good either. So… do I travel, and spend more money, which would be fun, and cool, and all that, or do I go to plan d-
change visa to allow working, find job, and cheaper off campus housing, close to job, and work/ study my easter break away.
Unfortunately, option D is the best for me. C is the worst, and b, I guess, is ok…
Or I could just blow my loan money (which they still haven’t given me- almost 5 full weeks into the school year) on beer and boys.
Nah.
So most likely, I’ll end up blowing 2 or 3 hundred dollars wandering around NZ for a week. Now I just have to figure out where I want to go. Or check my student visa, see if it’s already changed. That would kick butt. Ah, sweet money, that would allow me to pay my credit cards off, even if it will take me at least 2 years.
