Pain

Some things aren't meant to be said publicly. For everything else, there is the internet.

I don't know what that means. And even if I did, I probably wouldn't tell you. I did just make it up myself though! Really, I am just writing this so that everyone doesn't have to still stare at the DPGet thing, which Most of you didn't understand anyway. So I won't explan it.

There are somethings in life money can't buy. For everything else, there's Mastercard.

That's a kind of a funny attitude. Hey, I can't afford it, but I can buy it with a credit card, and pay it back, with a whole lot of interest, later! I dunno, whatever works for people.

I guess what I am trying to say is, we don't always know what we're doing. As people, we act on whatever we can see at the moment, and don't always think too far into the future about what consequences our actions might have. And what feelings they will generate in others.

Unfortunately, sometimes we don't and can't ever realise that on our own. And so if no one ever tells you, you won't ever know there is a problem. And that's not cool.

I'm trying to write something meaningful here, but (as you can probably tell) I am really struggling.

I probably should have thought about it before I started....

Blah

Wow, there IS a new one! And if no no one else jumps in, I will be first. Ha ha, I can hear Y&R on in the background, but I'm never too bored to watch that rubbish.

Well, i thought you did ok with the whole 'meaningful' thing, so for that I give you 5 points. I don't know is that is allowed, but I just did it!

I don't like credit cards. I have never had one, but I know I wouldn't like them. I like my little savings card..thats the stuff.

Well I tend to think a lot more about the future consequences these days. It's the smart thing to do. I still enjoy life though, I am just carefull about what I do to actually enjoy it.

I hope I make sense...

Anyways, I have 7 minutes left. yaaaay.

I hope you feel special, 2 comments in one day!

Yes. No. Maybe.

I disagree. Just because I can. No really, you can say more on the internet. You can also say exactly what you think about everything, in a public place and the people you're saying it about will Most likely never read it... but then theres always that chance that they might, and thats why you put it there... Ummm... I've heard.

If you think that when you die everything is over then a credit card would seem like a great idea! Spending money without having to work for it first... Most people would love that! Besides, you can always do it later, later is good! it means I don't have to think about it for a while! Errr... I mean... uhh... I don't have a credit card... or debt... =D

Sorry! Remember 3am. Anything can be deep and meaningful if you don't explain what it means and just let people guess... if they're a deep person... or something... =D I'm a puddle!

and anywho, why think about something first? you can do it later!

FYI, I use my mastercard to buy everything - and i have never paid any interest, or fees of any kind.

So yeah, it does work for some people ;)

No need to hide behind anonymity there!

But I agree, there isn't anything wrong with using a credit card if you have the money for it. That wasn't my point. I guess the state of mind I was in when I was writing "There are somethings money can't buy. For everything else...." Was just meaning really expensive things that weren't needed and couldn't be afforded. Credit Card systems are certainly very convenient for legitimate purchaces.

And Sophie: I think i finally figured out what you're saying. And, In some senses I agree. I think my point though, was that blogging is an outlet for thoughts which can be made public. Other things shouldn't be shared. Not even in relief society ;)

Dave: That's ok, Programming isn't that important, and neither was my DPGet post - i just needed some sort of homepage with ads on it which was easy to put there (although no one clicks on ads....)

Caro: Thanks for the points, and the comments.

I couldn't afford to have a credit card. I would like one of those ones that WORKS like a credit card though. :)

So cold!

I don't have a credit card cause I don't need one. Did you happen to know that I have almost $4000 in my bank? That's pretty good if you ask me. I love saving. It's so much fun to watch your money grow and stuff. I've been really bad at the moment though cause I have a weakness for shopping =$

I wish I could save more =( I'm so bad..

Locky is bugging me.. You can tell if I wake up in a bad mood cause that's when I usually get really mad at Locky for being alive and annoying..

I wish I could fly =(

I can fly! but only when I sleep, see you in my dreams, got me spinning round and round turning upside down!

Hey... where's Erin? Do you not get comments from Erin? hey... me neither... I'm gonna get her.

Hahaha... you will never figure out what I'm saying... not without the magic code book. unless of course you ask me a direct question... which is very clever of me because nobody ever wants to. =D

Locky bugs me too!
