I sold back an old textbook I used this summer for $23.50 (didn't think I'd get anything for it, tbh! I didn't even buy it from the uni bookstore)
I picked up a paycheck for $9.
I got a reimbursement check for $60, my PTS dues
Put in my new housing requisition, $3000 worth.
E-mailled a prof for a letter of recommendation for a summer research proggie
Went by my place of employment and made my case to be paid more than $9. Should be closer to 80, tbh. It's a strong case, seeing how I worked the hours. Did I ever tell you guys that I never got paid for my first day at Whatta-burger? No one showed me how to clock in, so I never did it. Jerks.
Sold that iPod I mysteriously won in a random drawing for $120. It's worth $200 from apple, I asked $170, and got jewed down, but I don't mind too much. That's $120 I wouldn't've had before, and some little hispanic girl apparently gets a merry christmas. Whatev. If the mom wasn't paying out the yazoo for her iphone data plan, I probably could've gotten all $170, but that's just being greedy for something that fell into my lap.
and a handful of survey checks.
And now you all know the secret to my internet generosity. Money falls into my lap and I give it away. Does that make me a good person or a dumbass? My mom would probably say it's a God thing, but I think you all know I don't think that's true. But it always seems to me that the appropriate results befall the appropriate people. I guess that's a privileged white girl outlook.
Now, back to kicking ass. If I kick enough ass, asses will start to kick themselves for me, saving me a lot of time and effort. Hi'yah!
