Money! Money! Money!

I need money :(

It just seems that there are so many things I want to buy but I really don't have the money. My parents pay me £15 a month which I am grateful for...it's just that this amount of money only means that I can save up for one expensive thing a year. With so many things tempting me, I just feel lost.

I started saving up for a steel-string guitar. My parents would pay for at least half the price of the guitar as a reward for passing my GCSEs.

I've really tried to save but there are so many more things that I would like to buy: music, a laptop, a camera, an iPod, and heaps of clothes. Especially the clothes since I've been growing 3 inches every month since September and hardly any of my clothes seem to fit me anymore. I'm also going to college (last two years of high school in america) next year and since we don't have to wear any uniform I need to get loads of clothes.

So after reading this I guess you immediately say, why can't she get a job? Well the sad and unwanted truth is I can't.

I'm nearly 16 now which means that I get a National Insurance card that I use when applying for jobs and guess what...I've lost it.

:(((((((((

Please don't give me that look I'm already beating myself up about it.

Does it really matter anyway? Now that the whole world (or near to it) is in an economic crisis/ credit crunch/ recession, it's not like I would be able to find a job anyway right? I mean a girl in my class was already made redundant. REDUNDANT! At the age of 15. If that happened to her, what chance do I have?

I will try though. I can't win if I don't try and all that jazz.

I just need to find that National Insurance card - pronto. hmmm...didn't check the toilet...
