give me yo money

ARG.

I hate how the holidays steal your money. I want to buy really cool stuff for my friends coming home from college, but all I've managed to scrape up is like, sixty bucks.

Poop. If only I had a job.

Why is it that we are not necessarily forced, but obligated to spend so much during the holidays? I mean, your pockets are empty, yet somehow you've managed to gain 20 pounds. It's quite a conundrum.

I've tried applying to a few places, but all the jobs I've looked at need part-timers after school and put you at the bottom of the priority list if you're not an adult. poop.

  1. I have no idea how I am even going to afford getting gifts for half the people I would like to. You're a creative person though, so maybe you could make gifts for some people?

    And yeah, haha, all of that medieval English history is pretty much blurred together for me except Agincourt because my history teacher just made us watch a movie on it. It was Henry V, btw.

  2. it is going to take a miracle for me to afford gifts for all of my family and friends. bottom line. making a gift is a wonderful idea, if only i were crafty enough. we'll get through, though!

  3. Hmmm... well, if all else fails, I guess you could always just go to the Dollar Store, right? :P You can actually find some pretty neat stuff there sometimes, though! Take Silly Putty for example... that's a pretty good gift, I'd say ;D

  4. This problem is as old as Christmas, which is for the kids, in my opinion. As far as adults go Christmas is for the giver (not speaking from experience here, or rather relatively limited experience). Ya, it's the thought that counts. You can quote me.

  5. Oh, cheer up!
    It would be nice to have presents for friends, that's true, but you're still in school, they'll understand.
    I've never given gifts to my friends when I was in highschool. We just didn't do that.

    But yeah, Kaitlin was right. Maybe you can make something for them.

    Oh well, let us know how it all turns out!

  6. LOL "poop". I remember being just like you when all my friends had jobs and I didn't. Well, now I have a job and it ain't all sex and candy. Trust me keep applying. Especially to "never heard of" stores, or stores where old folk shop. That's where I got mine, baby.
