It is finally Tuesday and after forgoing a trip to a local small amusement park that would have cost 50 dollars we decided to go visit my boyfriend's friend at his apartment complex that has a wonderful outside pool. I am less than 5 hours away from making my 65 dollar challenge a success. I currently have four dollars in my little coin purse I bought in Peru a few years ago where I have been keeping my allowance for the week. And that's after I just splurged on an Iced Latte from Dunkin Donuts that I have been putting off getting all week in order to stick within budget. I am very proud of my accomplishment I know it might not seem like much to a lot of people who are so amazing with money on this site but it is a big step for me. I relocated to NYC less than a year ago and with a boyfriend who works most days that I am off and very few friends (as most of my coworkers do not live near my job as I do) I tend to end up at the mall shopping and buying things I don't need to pass the time so I do not end up bored and feeling homesick. I spent my days cleaning the house, prepping dinners, working, walking to work which is 1.9 miles away 2 out of the 3 days I worked this week, and lounging quite a bit. I am thinking next week I might try to get my budget down to 60 dollars and seem if I am able. Well just wanted to update everyone.
Tee.
