An expensive day

Today was a pretty expensive day. I ended up spending around $340 and $100 of it could have been avoided.

For starters I bought an ipod fm transmitter for $80, a bottle of "dolce and gabbanna - the one for men" for $120 and a very satisfying lunch at hog's for $30.

Today was also annie's party at the gold club (happy 19th annie btw) and I decided to save some money and drive so I wouldn't be able to drink. That didn't work out so well because in the end I spent around $60 shouting jen, melinda, angeline and angeline's friend monica on drinks - so much for saving money from drinks.

We (me, budd and alvin) then headed off to the casino (again) after they got kicked out of the gold bar at 9 for wearing sneakers (still don't get why though but the bouncers were a bitch) and I ended up losing $40. I've decided now to never ever go to the casino again, which is a promise that I will keep. I have to admit though, the roulette dealer on my table was rather pretty - half chinese, quarter portugese and british LOL.

So the moral of the story I guess is to stay away from the casino and don't go shouting people drinks when you want to save money. Sigh. There's a lot of saving up to do in the next few weeks.

P.S. Paypal I wish you would hurry up and process my money so I can place my order on topman.

Burswood

I just got back from my first trip to the casino and as one of my friends put it, I am no longer a casino virgin.

So how did I go? I played only on the big and small table and ended up winning $7.50 and adding the $5 I got from joining club burswood, I'm up $12.50! Not bad for a first time I guess though I probably won't be going back anytime soon - there are much better ways to spend your money than at the cas.
