so i paid of another debt yesterday. $300 overdraft owing on my chequing account. i have had it in full overdraft for almost 10 years, paying at least 25 bucks a month in service charges, sometimes as high as 50 bucks if there was no money in it. well i paid it off yesterday and cancelled the overdraft portion of my account. yippee. boy does that feel good. now my debt is as follows:

mom (from laptop purchase for work): $1000
credit card: $1000
student loan: $60,000

hope to have my mom paid by christmas and my visa paid by march or april. yay...

who says i need spending money for the month? going without has given me an awesome feeling... better than shopping i think!
