So now that we've made it about a month into the summer, most of us have experienced the magical feeling of opening our first summer paycheck. In many cases, the opening of that highly anticipated envelope was closely followed by these 10 thoughts:
1) WOW THIS IS SO MUCH MONEY
When you're used to getting minimum wage paychecks from a part time job, getting one with decent pay and full time hours is a drastic change. (Like an extra digit drastic.)
2) I think this might be the best day of my life...
I honestly don't think I've ever seen a check with my name on it for more than $200. This is pivotal moment.
3) Now to do the responsible thing and pay everyone back
If you know me, you know that I am perpetually in debt to all of my friends because I have the spending habits of the Kardashians, but not the blessing of their bank account. VENMO get ready because here I come!
4) And my parents thought I couldn't take care of myself.
Look at me now Mom and Dad! I can practically afford my own Park Ave penthouse.
5) Ugh, but now it's all just sitting in my bank account begging for me to spend it
I wonder how many iced coffees I could buy with this bad boy?
6) I'm just going to stare at it
La de daaaa.... not being broke is a cool feeling. I hope it lasts.
7) Wait..... what is that number there.... THEY TOOK OUT $278 OF TAXES!!!!!
Do they know what I could do with $278?!?!? That's 27 meals at Cava!
8) I AM SO UPSET WITH THE GOVERNMENT
WTF. Who made up these rules? I would like a word!
9) *Sigh* I should probably just put this towards my tuition...... #ThanksKerwin
The Board of Trustiees raised tuition again, so I must kiss goodbye my beloved earnings.
