It has been exactly two weeks since I have moved in and begun my college career at Washburn University. And I have already found myself spending too much money. I have bought many useless things, including a video game I play whenever I am plagued by boredom. And I will admit I am not regretful for that purchase. Although my very first purchase was buying a basketball for the Rec Center, but I had recently found out that they already have basketballs for us to use. Hopefully I can get my $30 back for the ball, as thankfully I kept the receipt. I frequently find myself eating at restaurants and fast food places spending my own money. Even though I have been given financial aid for food on campus. So in other words, I'm not even using the money I have to pay back after college. Plus, the food at the Union (cafeteria) is great, so I definitely need to get my act together. I recently checked my bank account and realized, I am getting a little low on money. One would say I need a job, but I have already applied for five jobs, and none of them have contacted me back. So that might have to wait for next semester. A positive right now though is my snack situation in my dorm is looking very good, I will not be needing any for awhile. Unless I start binge eating for some odd reason. Looking towards the future, my money spending problem needs to be taken care of and I am very optimistic for that. In conclusion, after my first two weeks of the college life, I have made some poor spending choices and need to tone it down.
