Spending?

[bakaxtenshi]

Ok so I just paid off my insane credit card bill, and I'm ready to start with a clean slate.

I decided that I will be spending about a 1/4 of what I usually spend in a month, because:

1. Need to save money for Christmas
2. Need money for my trip to Japan
3. Want to start going out to dinner and other fun things that are expensive

Is it worth it, or

I've been trying to save for my trip to Japan this Dec and it's really hard D: But if you really want to go again, I would suggest to cut out the small stuff like eating out. It's hard but you'll see the difference lol.

I could go to Japan again if I didnt spend any money for 2 months. I'm planing on going NEXT winter. Thats over a year of saving, lol.

Ummm... idk how much I've spent this month, but none of it really counts because I had another massive sales post to get rid of my sweet stuff. See how I rationalize? haha

I like the coordinate, especially the rose at the neck! Would you wear this to the Christmas tea party?

[bakaxtenshi]

I was thinking of saving it for some special occasion, but if your referring to the party Amber is throwing, I never claimed a spot. ;x

[marthaness]

Yep, that's the one I meant ;o;
The coord looks very Christmas-y!

[bakaxtenshi]

Heh! Maybe we can have a Christmas party mini meet at my house or something. Or maybe a small 7 person and under dinner party somewhere. I would love to have a mini meet rather than big meet. IT COULD EVEN BE IN JERSEY! I mean, winter break is coming up so I'll have time.

I'm trying to budget myself as well. Its hard, because I'm used to spending more than I ought to. It becomes a matter of priorities though. Everytime I want to buy something, I have to weigh it in my mind; which will be more enjoyable in the long run, this dress or moving out of the house. Its a tough choice sometimes, cause I'm very indulgent XD so... I feel your pain!

And I love the coord!!! <3

I've barely bought anything at all lately. I bought a skirt in September that I still haven't had Celga ship to me. I'm getting kind of strapped for money, so I took the comm_sales off my flist.

That coordinate is awesome! You could maybe incorporate a black belt to break up the red on the vest, but I'm sure that's not necessary.

I have two jobs, so one job is bills/savings job and the other is play money job.

Save your money to go to Japan and shop. SO much more there.
