Sabrina’s Money Madness

I finally added my last class for the Spring semester. That also means that I’m on track to graduate. I filled out the papers for that on Monday when I registered for my English Lit class. I was kinda bummed that the class that I really wanted to take was closed. It’s a sports-related class […]

I only worked half the day today. I decided to go to school in the morning and then go to work. I had to go to 2 different offices but it was a bunch of back and forth trips. Add to that the mound of paper work that I had to fill out and it […]

I have off from work on Tuesday because of Veterans’ Day. I was planning on going to school since it’s open and registering for my last class and applying for graduation. I found out yesterday that the last day to apply for graduation is Monday and if I wait, then I have to pay a […]

This is my last payment for the semester. I’m glad that the semester is paid for but I haven’t even had my first exam in the class yet. I’ll pay the bill before the day is over. I hate seeing that chunk of money leaving my checking account. This payment is $606.00 because I paid […]

For this semester I’m $150.00 short. I don’t know what numbers I was looking at but my budget is really wrong. I do have a small “slush” fund that I can use but that will throw off the numbers for the spring. Right now I’m just going to concentrate on paying off the current semester. […]

It’s not only killing my budget, but it’s killing my pseudo-diet as well. I’m trying to figure out how to lose weight and keep it off but on days that I have school that all goes out the window. I eat lunch at work but then I don’t get to eat dinner until I get home […]

Last Monday my prof. gave 10 people (including me) a chapter to analyze for the next class. There are 5 chapters with 2 people each reviewing it. Then in class he calls on those two people first for comments about the chapter. Then the discussion is opened to the rest of the class. That’s just […]

It seems like I just paid it and now it’s already due again. I pay in 3 installments because that’s the longest time we’re allowed to stretch it out. We used to be able to make 4 payments but they stopped that last year. I don’t have enough cash to just be able to pay […]

I can do a budget because my income is fairly stable. But I’m in school and I still have a least 1 semester to go. Even if I budget for savings, the money will go towards school this year and the early part of next year. Then once I’m finally done with school, I’ll have […]

Ok now I am starting to think I’m a spazz. I had a clear and concise budget all written out for school. It had my tuition amounts, how much I had to pay, and where exactly the money for the classes was going to come from. It took me 2 days to make that thing […]

I dropped one of my classes. For whatever reason I thought I had dropped my Monday night class when in actuality I dropped my Tuesday night class. It was almost 7:30pm when I realized that I had missed my class. I need to email my professor today and find out what information I missed and […]

I had said that there was no way that I was dropping that class for my major. But I did wind up dropping it. It wasn’t because I couldn’t pay for it either. I found out that it was a writing course. This will be one of the hardest classes that I’ll take and I […]
