I know! I saw those bars too and I zoomed to the FAQ's to check it out. I was afraid I was going to have to resort to some sneaky-style posting to get them in time!

I would quick buy stuff with my gold. I'm doing that when I run out of time.

Hello...how is everyone, if you don't mind me joining in...

Other: Graduating college in December!! Getting my BA in Anthropology then I'm moving somewhere new and getting some work. I don't know what I want to do still and I'm too stressed out at the moment to plan anything so I'm going to get over the hurdles then worry about it. Just need one Spanish class and it's all over! Whew!

When I say sneaky, I meant popping into threads I'd never been to before and just inserting myself into the conversation.

Welcome, Madoka!

Claudia - It may come to that! lol. It's always nice to get the items before they go full price.

Exactly. If I wasn't so engaged with this forum and the event forum, that's exactly what I'd be doing.

I keep forgetting the Olympics are on.
To be honest...I can't seem to make myself care.

Had another minor family fight.
I am wanting to drive to the family camping area and my mom doesn't want me to.
It's been easy to just tag along because of my driving phobia....
BUT I want to move this area, on the way so I figured I better make the drive there and if it's too difficult, then maybe I can't move there. I definately want to check out the town I may be trying to move to more!.

Then the fight turned to my planned move.
I said, what wonderful life am I leaving behind?.
A lower middle class neighborhood with more crime then where I grew up?.
My $25 a week job?. There's nothing here for me now but bad memories and a person who committed crimes against me down the street without even a slap on the wrist.

Lets face it, I'm leaving to start a new life and I know it's gonna be an uphill battle. I know it's gonna be an intense fight to get enough money to leave and get my own place.
It's gotta be done sometime, may as well be now as I finish my massage training.
Right now, I just want to try out the driving. I guess the driving is now a symbol of the fact that I'm trying to move away and so it's being opposed.
I hope they can come to terms with my leaving because it's pretty much the focus of my life to get out of here and never come back.

I sure hope not!....There's no way I can start over YET again and change job fields.
I'm hoping I bet on the "right horse" this time...because I need a steady reliable income if I want to be in control of my life. I'm depending on massage to be able to bring in enough money to pay bills.

The driving will be the easy part compared to THAT.
Once I get off unemployment, I'll need 1K a month just to be living my limited current lifestyle, where my "luxuries" are having internet and cable connection. I dunno, it feels impossible. I just know I have to try and yes at that point I'll give up having cable. Hoping to keep the internet.

Anyone who flames me for being on unemployment, I did fight for a better job for a long time and I gave up the fight so I could change job fields. I've been discrimated against and let go at the drop of a hat. It's a rat race around here:(.
