Oh please god, just finish me off!
I needed some dough, but didn't particularily want to borrow more from my folks. So for the first time ever I went to the pawn shop down the street for a payday loan. Everything seemed alright, then she announced she couldn't help me because they don't accept out town cheques.

Christ's sake!

I hate money, I want it, but I hate it.

5. Haha thanks!
Considering much of the milage put on my car is because I drive around all day for THEM yup they should. The paltry 60 a month I get doesn't really cover auto expenses if you know what I mean!

But seriously L this is it for me...... I feel I have a full fledged excuse to leave here now. I can't afford life.

It was fine at first and I couldn't figure out why, then I realized it's because when I began here, I had Vacation pay from my previous job and a $2000 tax return (most of it going to bills) to rest atop of.

7. Just keep my story in mind
Next time someone tries to go on about "free" post secondary in Canada. Most of this financial havok is due to education loans.
