Death to Debt
I DID IT! I PAID OFF MY CREDIT CARD!!

After 3 years of credit card debt, I finally paid it off! The funny thing is, it wasn't even planned. I was just saving my money lately, not really for any reason...it's just that I was working a lot so I didn't really have time to shop or go out.

Then one day, I looked at my bank account and thought "Why don't I just pay off my credit card?" And then, boom... all my credit card debt erased in one fell swoop.

I tell ya, I've never felt both relieved and awful at the same time in my life. Right before I clicked the little button that confirmed my payment to the credit card company (I used online banking), I looked away as I did it and asked my brother, who was sitting right there, if it happened.

"I don't wanna look....did I just do what I thought I did?"

(Silence)

"Well, if you would open your eyes then you'd see that I was nodding my head yes."

I know! I miss chatting with you :( I've just been working a lot and then I went on vacation to the States a couple of weeks ago. Eversince I got back, I've been working non-stop! And school will start again for me at the end of the month so this summer is going by quickly for me! :S
