It’s crazy to think that in 5 months I’m turning 25 years old. I already predict that my birthday is going to be whack or the best birthday of my life especially in light of the mixed events leading up to it.
My life has taken some unsuspected turns. And for once I’m not fighting them. I’m rolling with the punches and smiling more. I have a condition called hyperparathyroidism…. I know! Say that three times fast. It’s not as scary as it may sound, but still something I need to pay attention to.
I’m counting down until my consultation date for surgery, May 9th, 2013. That’s just next week, but an operation date so I can move on with life would be so great.
I’m back in school AGAIN! I’ve been in and out for the longest while it seems, but I’m still happy about it. I only have to pay about $400 out of pocket per semester (not including books and transportation). However, that’s still only about 10% of what my actual tuition is.
I am working two jobs, one of which ends in June, just to be able to pay bills and save significant money to get some things for the not-so-distant future and I’m doing quite well in those regards.
I have always had the skills to manage my finances, but never really put them to use until I had to pay real bills, which isn’t until relatively recently. However, I can honestly say I’m able to budget myself in a way that I can pay my bills on time, save money and give myself an allowance.
Happy, happy 20th birthday to my girl @pinkhoneyy. (This pic is wild old) You grew up way too fast! I was content with the 15/16 year old Aziza I meet all those years ago. You’re legit about to be grown on me, but I still love you the same. β€
