The end of an era
Okaaaaaaaaaay! Hello there!
I'm going to throw some figures at you and if you are displeased at such throwing, it is all good, just look away and pretend it never happened. Kind of like what I've done with my month of no spending (hue hue hue).
So. I have once again shaken too much garlic granules into my mushroom soup and FUCK ME is it garlicky. Sorry for anyone who has the misfortune of being near me for the next day or so.
Aaaan moving on.

[the HORRENDOUS prices I am seeing. That yoghurt above, just there? THREE DOLLARS TWENTY NINE? That was the smallest tub of yummiest goodness, but I can get a large tub about four times that size for the same price! Stop shopping at service stations Cerri!]

ESSENTIAL EXPENSES PAID: 120.00
BILLS PAID: 191.00
OTHER NON-FOOD NON-EXPENSE ITEMS: 7.00
TOTAL MONEY SPENT: 533.25
Now that's pretty alarming considering that my food budget in total was only 12.90 and that equals to 12.90 x 4 weeks in this month = 51.60. I know I was confused for some reason and did my normal 'oh I have no idea what I'm doing in life, ahahaha ahahhhhh haaahhhhhhaaaaaaaa, watch me twirl!' spiel, but nonetheless!! 198.86 is a lot of money.
AMOUNT SPENT ON CHIPS: 30.55
AMOUNT SPENT ON CHOCOLATE: 42.59
AMOUNT SPENT ON ALL NON-NUTRITIONAL FOODS: 127.88
Which means out of that entire food total above 198.86 - 127.88 of crap = 70.98 and that would be mostly yoghurts, breads, and fruits.

I am also pretty certain that I consumed hardly ANY vegetables on this challenge. My poor gut. My poor tummy. I'M SORRY GUYS, I'M JUST A SUCKER FOR THE GOOD STUFF... =;C
Anywho! I really like seeing my life set out on the page like this. It feels so ordered and clean, and even though the results are TERRIFYINGLY ATROCIOUS, I can see what I'm doing wrong and there is a chance to fix it, even if I won't, because I know what to do and all of that adds up to make me surprisingly satisfied. ^_^
I really wanted to analyze these figures and make some super long post about all the intricate things, but I spent a literal ONE SOLID HOUR writing out those figures and then adding them up- the adding! the adding! why so much addingggggg!?- and I really want to watch more Supernatural so I'll leave it at that!
What a time it has been. I hope everyone has appreciated my honesty and hard work (ha! jk) and good luck with those who want to try it too! It's certainly something! What that something is, is yet to be revealed, but it is there and it is tangible. No it's not. Ok, bye!
