Live a little, have some fun

Ohh tax season. I FINALLY sat my butt down and attempted to do my taxes last night. I'm eligible to complete my taxes for free, woohoo? Now with my big girl job, I was expecting a large amount back from the glorious government.. but I was sadly mistaken.

I've paid off a lot of my student loans (still have a long way to go), but since interest didn't start building until January 2011, I don't get to write any of it off.

Okay, okay, I'm done whining. The good (or bad?) thing about taxes.. I've allotted almost every penny already. The mature decision would be to put all of that money towards my loans, or into savings. I feel as though I've been mature, and have a budget that I am saving what I consider to be a decent amount. So where is that money going you might wonder? Well, if I don't win tickets to WMZQ fest in the next few weeks.. I will be purchasing a $119 ticket. Then I'm going to attempt to win a pair of Kenny Chesney tickets. Don't ask how much I will be spending to see him in concert.

Long story short, I'm keeping my fingers crossed to win quite a few concert tickets, but it not.. I'm living by Mr.Chesney's words:

Been going like nothing can wait
I gotta get my priorities straight

I need to live a little, have some fun

Take some time, waste it on number one

You only live once, and as responsible as I am trying to be, I don't want to look back and have no debt, and no fun. There needs to be a healthy balance, and if it takes me 3 years instead of 2 to pay off all of my student loans, no one is going to die. Fact.
