It is the new year, and I'm worried about money. Two days ago, I decided to open up a new bank account with my $26 check I forgot to cash in a long time ago when I had a temporary job. During the set up with the bank teller, she suggested I sign up for a credit card. After going through the process with her, I was immediately denied. I don't have a stable job, and writing for the newspaper is not enough to pay for a credit card and my expenses.
I applied for over 10 places now, and have gotten four rejection letters. The rest of the places have not gotten back to me. I just applied for two places, and my friend who works at a restaurant is going to see what she can do for me in getting a job there. I hope to find a job by February. The new semester is coming up, I still need to pay for tuition and textbooks on top of my utility bill and rent. I made the decision that until I find a job, I'm going to try to use the $80 in cash my parents gave me for groceries, and nothing else. Instead of $25, I'll be spending $20 a week. If I can't find a job after February, I don't know what I'll do.
