I was talking to one of my extroverted friends. She mentioned that although she knows she’s extroverted and loves people that she also has found that during this busy season of her life she needs more time by herself because she has spent more energy at work. She mentioned that although she loves people she sees the value in taking time for herself. Some might call it being an ambivert, I think I’d tend to call it human. Everyone has moments when they need others around them, and when they need to be by themselves. Don’t let the extroversion or introversion label block you in to certain actions.

I have had an Amazon account since high school, and there are saved items from back then sitting in my account. Either I didn’t purchase the item because I forgot, or because I didn’t need it, after all, saving me money. When online there’s hardly any reason not to fill up your cart, you can track items you like, see the total while you shop, wait for price changes. This applies to other websites, and sometimes real life carts, since, at most stores, the cashier has a “put back” bin, just please don’t abuse this opportunity. See by filling up your cart you can save items and there’s no obligation…

I’ve talked about having a credit card, and how that’s helped me. I recently read a question: “How much credit card debt is too much for a young adult?” The answer?

Does that mean everyone will always be able to avoid it? Perhaps not, but it should never be seen as something that is a good idea, or something that is a way out or a viable option. Be careful with your money, be even more careful with money that…

I live in Minnesota. A wet, snowy, windy, dry, sunny, cloudy place, sometimes all in the same day. It’s hard to buy and put together a good wardrobe for this weather, sometimes it’s even hard to find the right products, but In the last two years I have found some stellar options. Here’s my list for my best water proof gear (with one water resistent option as well. Vessi Footwear Trainers (worn in photo) : Honestly these are amazing, and worth the price in my opinion, they are the most expensive shoes I own, but I’m okay with that. They really are waterproof, for starters. I’ve even stuck my foot…

Liking the cheaper version of something is hardly wrong, this can relate to food, beverage or software, or other products in general, even education. I like getting a good deal, on anything from food to furniture. I don’t need the best of everything or the “highest quality” choice for everything. It’s not wrong to like those things, but there are some things that I genuinely like the cheaper version of more, at least for now. There are many cases of getting what you pay for in terms of quality, so don’t avoid higher prices in all cases. That and be careful of going too cheap. Don’t feel bad that you…
