Here I am!

Well, what can I say? I'm 24, I've worked in night life for the past 6 years and when spring semester was over I quit my job that supported my lavish lifestyle and started work in a church!! Most people that know through my previous occupation still can't believe that its true. But now I am closer to god (mind you, I was born and raised Muslim). My life before consisted of traveling, going to parties and organizing them. I was a hospitality consultant for a membership club and PR agency. Now it consists of balance sheets and bank consolidations. Fun! I do like my job though and it gave me a lot more structure in life. Partially why I took this job to begin with. But thankfully enough my new boss is still cool enough so he doesn't mind me traveling. Over the break I went to Sundance Film Festival and ended up getting stuck out in Utah during the snow storm, my boss said to take the rest of the week off so I flew out to LA till Sunday. It's all fun and games till you start realizing that your financial resources are about be drained. I'm especially excited about this class in hopes of figuring out a better managing strategy when it comes to my money. My income has shrunk but my spending didn't :o/
