Oh yeah, I found something to blog about.
So I think yesterday, on Monday, a teacher announced a LYNEHAM'S GOT TALENT DAYO. I was much surprised when many people started graoning about it. It's wasn't often we got these kinds of events going on in the school. I was a bit excited, I mean, come ON! LYNEHAM'S GOT TALENT! YEAH?! YEAH??!!!?! no...? Well whatever. I also grumbled a bit because I think this goes for many othe rpeople as well, THIS was where our budget was going, not into other things. I mean, if they were nice, couldn;t they have cut a bit of pay from the Year 10 Band tour cost? I mean. Jeezus christ, 810 $ Expensive money for cheap asian kids.
Aaaaaaannnnddd. My mum has a back problem, and she needs to go to korea to fix it, at least for a week or more. Unfortunately, we can't afford for my mum to go to Korea for a week or more, due to retardedly expensive tour costs. Now, if you want to say I'm a jerk and could have not gone onto band tour so my mum could go to korea, (not that 810$ would have done much, it would have still had a little bit of an impact on the cost) we made the initial payment (500~ $) back when we had money to spend. we didn't have much, but it was enough for me to be able to go to something that I really wanted eg. Band Tour. Now, due to changes in the law for the PTS (Professional Tiling Services) and other builders, my dad's income had taken a massive hit. Now we're quite heavily in debt, we have an absurd amount of taxes to pay off, and on top of that, I really want to go to LEAP camp. I just don't think we can afford it all. So I decided, I'm not going to go to LEAP camp this year. It sucks, but I have to try something to keep us afloat.
I mean, I love LEAP and all... but Family comes first.
Money, Life, and Love are jerks.
Peace Out Girl Scouts
