Coming up with something

My finances are still shaky, obviously (these things never ease in a day or two, it's always months and years), bu today I depositied $70 worth of coins into my account, pushing me to my closest level of having $1000 of my own money in my account in almost two and a half years. I've been over $1000 off and on over the last six months, but that was because I dropped a class at UCCS and got back a bunch of money.

In a way, it feels really good to be getting somewhere. I mean, if I were to pay for my own tuition this coming year, I would be over a quarter of the way there (by two weeks from yesterday, over one third of the way and almost on half). On the other hand, $870 is not a lot of money to have.

My parents said they'll be able to cover my insurance for the eight months I'm trying to save money for the rest of my life, mainly because I really don't use much in the way of medical, dental isn't expensive, etc. I do think that I need to start paying my car insurance though.

Besides the money issue, I have a TON of French to do tonight and tomorrow. We're talking like pages and pages worth. I had thought that this chapter would be a little longer than it was, but apparently it was only one week long...

So yeah, I have a composition to write, like 10 pages of workbook stuff, and another 5 pages of reading in my book.

But I'm not doing that, I'm working on finishing my book, Eleanor of Aquitaine, which really is more about the entirety of the Angevin empire during her life than something just about her. It's still a VERY good book. I only have like 25 pages to go, so I will be finishing it this evening.

Tomorrow=beaucoup de francais (damn computer won't let my put in a cedille).
