Studda much?

The weather is just too annoying for words. We get a blizzard on Sunday and then by Tuesday its halfway melted because it was a 50° day. Sure, it cuts down on shovel time but damn, this summer is going to be HORRIBLE, I can tell already.

The month of March is fast approaching. I’ve been slowly getting the theme together. I went with shamrocks because I’m Irish and I have to show off that pride. I’ve been bothering Heather for the past couple of weeks with the dynamic navigation cause it?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s been screwing with me. I wrote it so that when its on the focus page the nav voids that particular link. It’s working pretty well on most of the pages but I’m having issues with the exit pages. I’m sure I’ll figure it out eventually. There?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s no sidebar on this theme though, it’s very, very simple looking.

I’ll be getting another tattoo once all of the tax shit is taken care of. I figured I’d treat myself and drop $60 on something that was important to me. I found one on tattoojohnny.com that was close to what I wanted. I played around with it and came up with this one but I just don’t like its overall appearance. (Yes, I mask them over my own skin so I can get a general idea of how they’re going to look.) As you can tell, this one doesn’t look so great so I’ve asked Jay to design one for me. He designed his own and it looks AMAZING so I asked him to do it for me. I’m sure he’ll come up with something excellent considering he’s such an awesome artist.

My math module is completed. Considering I was always suckered into doing my sisters English homework (being as it seems to be her second language) I had her do the math. She did ok on the first test she took for me and got a 95. But then she managed to get a 75 then another 95. My average is still 92 but damn a 75 SUCKS, sucks the fatty. The next one I’m going to have to do is Science (again) but I don’t really mind because its an easier module then the previous one. It’s more about energy and sound this time. The previous one was Biology and Chemistry – two subjects I absolutely hate.

So I’ve got my priorities straight and have been working my ass off for the last couple of weeks getting things together. I’m almost done with the Stein account, I picked up a huge wordpress template creation from the freelancer site, and I’m slowly getting referrals together for the notebook offer.

They’ve changed their site around and they have new requirements for better prizes. Sure, I could wait on 7 people and get the $1050, but why not shoot for the $1800? So, instead of 7 referrals, I need 13. Sign up and complete an offer, I’ll give you $10 or a free domain/hosting for one year. Go with the AOL offer, because you’re credited in three days and since AOL’s first month is always free you can cancel after like, five minutes of being a completed referral. Call ’em, say you don’t want AOL and your account with AOL is cancelled. No charges are made to your card, its like you didn’t even use it at all; nifty right?

I know how the break down of the money is going to work for the upcoming weeks. Any money I make from the stein account goes to my dad so I can finish paying off school. I’m keeping about $200 for myself so I can get my tattoo and do some shopping. I went through my closet and have like 800 pants and 6 shirts. I think it’s time to do some shirt shopping, don’t you? Then the $1800 from the notebook offer will also help out. I refuse to get a laptop through them because I can build one with the same stats as their ‘top available model’ for like $400 less then they think it is.

  • Shirts
  • Tattoo
  • Laptop
  • Pay for school
  • Enroll in a new course, probably medical transcription or something of the like.
  • Put the rest into savings, 7% interest can’t go wrong with that.

So yea, that’s my break down of money. If I could get all offers completed (minus the deductions of having to pay the $10 out), I can reach a total of $4700. That’s more then enough for me to do everything I need to do with work and school and then still have some money saved up to put towards a car, because it’s about damn time I went a head and did something like that. I figure in total I’d lose about $500 from paying off referrals but that’s really not so bad considering the amount of money I’d be getting anyway.

In any event, I’m tired and my boss just signed off so that means work is over for the day; time to go lay down.

    I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone actually wanting to build a laptop. But if you do plan on going that route, good luck with it. 🙂

    I do have some links on barebone systems and what have you.

    Okay so what is this now I gotta type in a number to leave a comment? And not just any number it has to be the number in the box BAH. If I get my desktop running tomorrow you’ll get my referral I promise.

    i wanna help you paint!

    I’m the total opposite. I have like 3 jeans and 150 shirts but I hate all my shirts too so what the heck? I find a really good pair of pants and I just wear them down. Like the dude in the Levi’s commercial. I’m tall so when I find some that are actually long enough and stay that way while drying I’m a happy camper. That’s one reason I love capri season.

    I love shoes don’t get me started on shoes. Let’s go shopping now.

    Dynamic navigation is awesome!

    o0 I like the tattoo! I like how you have the clover in it 🙂 A very Irish symbol. hehe.
    But yeah, good idea to try out different ones against your skin!

    The weather is nuts here too.. it rained two days out of last week, yet now it’s hot and sunny! Must’ve been a build up.
    Your weather just sounds scary! haha

    Looking forward to the Irish themed theme! 😀

    i like the shamrock, but not so much the flowers and bright colors. i think it’s great that you mask them over your skin. i’ve seen too many people who see a tattoo design that they think looks great, then they get it on their skin and it’s not at all what they thought.

    good luck with the notebook offers. i’ll probably sign up for it and be a referral even though i’m not going to put forth effort to collect my own referrals. it’s just tempting when you offer money or domain/hosting 🙂
