tryna plan my birthday dinner and just realized i can't afford it ๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ˜”
#ik i'm inviting everyone over but what if i made them pay for their food absjsks#i could make empanadas instead and that'd be way cheaper and i'd have enough for everyone#but that also means i'd have to spend my birthday making empanadas and the whole point of ordering food was not having to do work#also i really wanted thai food :/#maybe i can afford it if i get the job i interviewed for this week#but def not at the moment#also mini rant since i'm on the topic of finances but man is it depressing to be here working two jobs to pay for groceries#meanwhile my roommate is on a full scholarship w/ free meal plan and rich parents and she eats the food i make or uses my ingredients#like she v def is not in the wrong bc i told her she could but it is depressing to know that i'm struggling to pay for college and survival#while she gets to be blissfully unaware of how much she has in her savings and bills are paid for her#she literally said that the other day she was like#''i don't know how much i have in my college savings. i just ask my mom to withdraw from it whenever a bill comes''#(she has a full ride but she's out of state so there's like a fee or smth she has to pay but it's still essentially a full ride)#and i just sat there flabbergasted bc i know exactly how much i have in my college savings. $417.37.#and every penny will be gone by next sem to pay for those classes. and my 529 is v low bc of the stock market being bad rn#so i'm trying to avoid going into it until the stock market's up again but i had to dip into it anyway bc of my required arts class#aaaaaanyway the thought of her not even knowing what she has bc she doesn't have to worry abt it cause she's rich is so..... yeah ๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ˜”#and then i turn around and like three of my friends get a monthly allowance from their parents meanwhile i treat them to boba#i can't ask my parents for financial help cause they're in a really bad spot right now#my brother called me the other day and said he was having waffles for dinner cause they didn't have any food#so like....... i think my friends should pay for my laundry#tea talks#tea vents
