For the last few weeks I have been really broke. It scares me. I hate feeling like I have nothing to fall back on money wise because I actually have nothing to fall back on. Since before Christmas, I was buying presents for family and things for myself, like TV Series Box Sets, several Manga series, and other things I wanted, and all this time my savings were getting lower and lower as I wasn't topping it up. I finished the Lifeline counselling course I did but had to pay money for not getting on the phones and using the skills they taught us so that has been a big dent in my money, or lack of it. I'm fine with paying rent but since I've been buying myself things I haven't been saving any and now I'm down to nothing. For Yorick's birthday we are going skydiving with a group of his friends. It's $350 all up and after that I'll be back down to nothing. Yorick and I also have a power bill to pay, which is about $170 or something, and once again after that I will still be broke. I'll be lucky to pay that bill. I am promising myself I will never leave myself with nothing again. I like being able to buy things I like, but I'll have to make sure that's not every week. I hope I can start to save again and the next time we go on a holiday I hope that there will be money for when we get back too. I hate that. I can still buy pretty things but not so much that I spend all my weeks money and don't put any away. I have to be more disciplined with money. I know I can do it as I know how it feels having none. Golly gosh.
