Hi Pearl! <3

How are you? What's new? ^-^ *huggles*

Hi all -I've been so quiet here lately - looks like you've all be busy.

Chris and I keep talking about sitting down together and putting together a budget - figuring out where we would be best putting our money - right now everything is separate - he has his bills and I have mine. In all likelihood things will stay that way- but right now we're both spening way more than we should be and that needs to be fixed. Especially since I'm finished school and will have to start repaying my student loans - I had some left over from my undergrad and now with grad school on top I probably have close to 30,000 in student loans to try and repay.


I got a call the other day from the librarian I worked for over the spring and she was shocked I hadn't heard from the city yet for an interview and so she called HR and they had me fax them my application and hr is not contacting the city to find my application and find out why they never got it. It's great she's doing this for me - I just hope I'm able to get a job soon because I really don't want to stay where I am at my current salary any longer.

@Pearl
I hope the year stays easy! Like you said, it's bound to get harder, but hopefully it won't be as bad as they make it out to be.

@Sia
Sounds like Cole and me. We have our stuff separate as well. We split the main bills and everything else is our own to do whatever. I'm pretty sure our system will stay this way even after marriage. If a system works, 'tis best not to tamper with it.

I know what you mean on the "spending more than we should be", but right now we've got a handle on it. It seems like we did this last week and you and Chris are doing it this week. Haha. Cole called to get all of his credit cards consolidated, and I looked into the student loan options until I graduate so I can get a lower interest rate for all my debt.

I am hoping, though... not to end up with $30k. It'll probably happen though. The thought does scare the pants offa me though. :( I hate debt. I don't know why it scares me so badly.

I hope you get this job. Best of luck to you!! *hug*

Byebye Juru. Sleep well! <3

Oooh. Lots of good stories on breastfeeding then. Hopefully I won't have troubles when it's time. n_n Maybe another year, hopefully. I figure the more we stress about getting pregnant, the less likely it's to happen.

The dance lessons still going well? :3

*tacklehugs* Aliena for my bow!

How is everyone doing? I do hope all the 'adult" talk is over, I'm currently pretending I'm not one.

Aliena, I'm glad it's a good experience for you.

I've made a promise to myself that once we move, I'm setting up my exercise equipment. We are so close to storage in the new apartment that there's no excuse for me not to bring it up and take it back down every other day or something.

That and if I have to pick my nephew up at my mother's house four days a week, there's no excuse I can't leave a bit early on Mondays and Wednesdays (Tues-Thurs I have work) to hop on her treadmill.

So yes. Financial stuff = taken care of to my best ability. Exercise stuff = coming no later than October 1st.

I told myself I'd go religiously, but eh... I failed the first time. Not this time though. D:<

If you're going before I reply again, good night and take care Pearl. <3

I do too. I hope I get more tonight than last night's 2 hours. I was up throwing up constantly. XDD;; It's apparent pork and I do not like each other, so I've cut ties with it. It can fend for itself thanks.

I have something called "The Bean". I bought it a long time ago. I used to do it religiously. x.x I also have the add-on equipment for arm and leg exercises, and I intend on using those this time. My fat belly doesn't like too many sit-ups at once anyway. XD *pats it* There there dear. We won't put you through TOO much.
