Even after giving Myriam $700 for my "shiny thing" (as she calls it) I still have $1159.46 spending money - not bad! I put £576 on my travel money card which gave me $850 at the current (rubbish) exchange rate! I plan to get some more from my pay at the end of the month (as much as I can) - the 23rd will be two weeks before I go away, so I should have plenty of time to get some more spending money! Its better to have too much money than too little, right? Money is not one of the things I normally worry about - but I seem to when I'm in America, weird!
I don't really see any 'big' purchases (other than the $700 one I've got Myriam buying for me and a graduation present for Myriam which should be about $250), plus I have nothing to 'get' - I won't be buying DVDs or anything like that this time, so I think $1300 will be more than enough for two weeks! Who knows, I might win something at the casino (doubtful, but you never know!) Imagine that, coming back with more money than I started with, hahaha!
I've also bought some more storage for my Picasa account - it's $5 a year for an extra 20GB of storage, which is a fantastic deal as I'm always using Picasa!
Knowing that I'm going to be there in 4 weeks time is incredibly exciting, I really can't wait at all and hopefully Myriam will be able to stay over on the first weekend as that's usually the loneliest time for me.
I'm going to have to start packing soon!
