The Saver

I consider myself a frugal kind of person. I keep an eye out for 2 for 1 sells, I sign up for printable coupons and discount codes, And I can even make 20$ last me two weeks. I've been raised this way, not that it's a bad thing at all, I think it's a fantastic quality. I love being able to save money, sometimes I have to but I feel sort of achieved afterwards. Like I've just ran a marathon and even though I was not first, I was in the top ten. But when o do come across things I want, don't need, it's always a hard decision and can take me days at a time to choose. To buy, or not to buy, that is the question. Usually, I put the item out of mind and refuse to let myself throw the money away, because I know I'll feel horrible after the purchase for wasting money. But I've come to the conclusion that I want an ipad2. At first I thought, why would I waste at minimum 500$ on this, but then I thought about how much easier it would be to do all my online work. Which I have quite a bit of nowadays. Three sites, advertising sites, keeping an eye on Adsense, payouts, paypal, keeping up with posts and sometimes research, tons and tons. And I relish in the thought of not having to lug around a big heavy shoulder breaking laptop. It was only after those thoughts that I felt the ipad2 would be a nice investment. So I've decided to save for it. Most likely a 16G, though I'd like a 32G so I don't worry about memory or space. I gave this a lot of thought because 500$ is quite a chunk of cash, though I already have the software, know how to use it and can get a student discount helps. I think I'm pretty set on the saving and purchase, but the saver in me is screaming " get a kindle fire, it's cheaper". I compared the two and I think Apple is the better choice. bigger screen too.

Migraines, karmas punishment

So I tend to have these very painful and very long lasting migraines. No, not headaches. Those are normal every day things that i'm able to "play through the pain" with. Migraines are horribly painful. If you get them, you know what I am referring to. Every noise big and small is like a blow to the head, I can feel and hear my heart pounding which only makes it worse because my heart beat gets louder only because i notice it. All light hurts your head and your eyes, so you turn everything in your room off, close your curtains and hide under the two layers of covers on your bed in an attempt to ease the throbbing pain in your head. For me, migraines can last a few days. The longest was a week, after which i saw a doctor and was given prescription migraine pills. Help a lot, but make you extremely drowsy. Actually he wanted me to get brain scan done to make sure I didn't have a brain tumor or anything but even with my insurance it'd be about 500$ so i skipped it. I don't think i have anything that shouldn't be in there though, i figure i'd have nose bleeds or something. Looking on the bright side right? So i rate my headaches/migraines on a scale of 1-10, one being bearable and 10 being on the floor in agonizing pain crying and about to head off to the doctor. This past one was about an 8. After i took the last of my prescription meds it slowly went down to a 6( better but refusing to get out from under the covers), then it lingered into a 4-5 until about 4am when i finally passed out. Next day(yesterday) it was a steady 3 which is not too bad at all. Today has been a 1-2, and i can feel it finally disappearing. Finally. I had to do a bit of complaining on here, since well my new years resolution was to write a lot more so here i am, giving you my words and rambles. 
I've been doing a lot of online work today. Organizing my blog work, sponsor things, messing with adsense of course, playing around with the new site and looking at writing/blog jobs. I like to stay super organized with all the sites and ads I have, I can't stand not to do so, thinking about it even stresses me a bit haha. I have a whole notebook just for this site, it has a zombie on it, and i'm constantly updating it, looking at it to make sure i haven't missed anything. Keeping track of payouts and paypal. Sponsor names. Admin names. If any of you have a website/blog and actually have earning and what not for it, I suggest you do the same. Trust me, it is very worth it. Earning with a blog dose take time, but I feel like you have to want to write to have a blog and the earnings are just a great plus. I think my websites are the one thing i have ever really had patience for. I love it!
