New Year's Resolution

Bank in the Form of a Pig by Harry Allen

Amongst a muddied head of self-improvement vows for the new year, I think that saving money rises to the top of the pile. As of yet, I'm not quite sure how I could magically spend less money than I already do, being that we've committed to a decidedly near-ascetic student lifestyle, but I have promised myself to be a committed penny-pincher this year, motivated by the onslaught of big post-Christmas and car insurance bills due this January and five upcoming summer weddings. Being that I have the mathematical know-how of a third grade student, I'm not so sure how to creatively recalculate and budget for the new year.. but I do know that this blog will serve as a primary venting source for those materialistic yearnings that will come to fruition all too often throughout the year. Expect some seriously cathartic blogging to ensue!
