I've taken a big step in my personal growth by making a conscientious effort in keeping a tight budget on my spending. For those of you who have hung out with me on a daily basis, you know what a big shift this is for me. Starting Monday, I will keep track of all my spending habits on paper (down to the penny!) and will try to cut back on unnecesary expenditures (e.g. late night Wendy's before i go to sleep every night). Living at home while working has afforded me the wonderful benefit of not having to pay rent - I should really make the most of this situation by saving up as much as I can.

Since last year, I've also begun to enjoy reading books a lot more. I went through a long phase through high school and most of college where I absolutely detested reading books ... but now I'm starting to enjoy it once again (as I did in middle school).

It's been real quiet now that a lot of people have left Chapel Hill. But this has given me more time to work on Tabulas, so I guess I can't complain :)
