Well, my furst tutorial went well, and it confirmed that i had basically started off on the right track with tma01. This convinced me to go back to tma02 and start wiritng again. I had forgotten that my rough draft for the third, musical section was not finished. I am up to 260 words, so i have 40 left. I should be able to finish it soon. Then i need to do some finishing touches to the one of the painting, and then really do some hard thinking about the sonnet one. But i may leave that until we have discussed it at the tutorial. The tutor also suggest that we should start reading "wide sargasso sea", which i felt pleased with, since ihave already read it thorugh once.

Now, if i can just stop spending money....life would be grand(ish)

So, i need to decide what i can do to stop spending. Well, i do have some things that i need to pay for this month that i cannot get out of; moting/servicing and taxing my car. No getting out of that i'm afraid, and that's what will push my over my 1k comfort zone. But that'll be it. I also need to get some spending money for my holiday. Then Feb i need to stop spending.

Saturdays instead of painting, i'm going to strip wallpaper. I already have the materials to do that, and don't need to buy anything else. I have plenty of CD's and DVD's and some games to play...i don't NEED to buy any more. And since it is my birthday, i should be able to get my mum and sister to buy me a couple of new books to read that i haven't been able to borrow from the library.

I need to stop going to the Fort and buying crap, basically. I seem to have so little self-control at the moment...

I also need to save again. but i think that i need to pay off my credit cards first...
