Spreadsheets and Calendars Galore!

During my first year in college, I ate out a lot. A LOT.

I gained some weight, but nothing that was too big of a deal.

My main concern, heading into my second year, is the money.

Orange County isn't exactly a low cost of living place, so eating out nearly every night cost me a good chunk of change...an amount that could have saved me a lot of stress during the summer, as I should have had much more money remaining for the summer.

So this summer, I've created a plan to cut down on my spending...and simultaneously lead a healthier life.

There will be spreadsheet budgets and calendars of when I can go out to eat.

There will be a rough schedule of when to go home to save money on gas.

There will be grocery lists so I can't claim I don't have anything else to eat.

There will be calendars incorporating times to go the gym, times to study, and times to relax so maybe I can finally get a grip on all of my stress-induced ailments.

I've had all summer to think about this, and oh my golly, I'm excited!

All of the lists, calendars, and spreadsheets are exactly what I need.

My roommates thought I was crazy with all of my lists last year.

Oh, they have no idea of the possibilities!
