My parents went out to refund the monitor... we lost the $10 that paid for shipping.  My dad found an iPhone and gave it to my brother.  We used the refunded money to get a $25 charger.  It was puny and can't even be considered a charger because all you do is attach it to the computer.  I searched up some chargers online...  There are Home/Car charger packs that cost $25...  I hate you Best Buy.  How can you lie to people like this?

I plan to refund one of my Pond's Cold Cream to get some money to pay for my brother's fine.  The thing is, I got the receipt in which my mom used her credit card.  I'm thinking of exchanging it for the Dry Skin Cream and going back another day to refund it for cash (since I got a separate receipt where the latter was bought with cash.)

I sorta regret going to Molly's birthday dinner yesterday.  The thing is, I wasted my $20 of life savings on spaghetti.  It's not worth it.  I wouldn't have mind if I got more variety and dishes if we had gone to a classic Chinese restaurant instead.  I mean, we didn't even know what to order.  I pity Jeffrey who got some sort of sausage and bitter greens dish.  The total bill came up to about $330.  Each dish was at least $15...  I don't think I'll ever go to an Italian restaurant again. 

I want to go to the school play on Wednesday.  I need $10...  I'm probably gonna have to use half of what's left of my money now.

Sorry if no one really cares about what I spend money on but these financial issues are really bringing me down :(  How will I be able to spend for Christmas, I wonder.

Alright, so I'm a person who has dry skin.  It gets worse in the winter :(  So yesterday in Soph Tech, I applied some moisturizing creme to the tip of my nose 'cause I noticed the skin there was exceptionally dry and didn't want to go around with a flaky nose Dx  We had a substitute and were supposed to work on the mini-project that was due yesterday.   So the guy who sits across from me saw me applying the lotion and thought I was sniffing something.  I had to explain that I had a really dry nose and he wanted some creme too which I much obliged.  For some reason, he put it on his nose too and kinda got the attention of the guys in front and in back of me.  I gave them some of the creme too and they all put it on their noses.  I thought they were mocking me or something until I realized that they thought the moisturizer was just used for the nose (=_=")  The 1st guy exclaims about how soft his nose is and got some more for his weenis (the skin on the the elbow) and James (back) put some on his earlobe and started going on about how its "turning him on" LOL.  He also said he like the scent of it...  the moisturizer is fragrance-free.  Julian (front) put some more on his face too and it seems that although he thought the other two were weird, he just went along.  That was a really awkward experience.

When I went home, my brother found that the balloon Meagan gave me for my birthday had lost a lot of helium.  The other three balloons I got from Nana, Alyssa and Molly (bought from school) were still doing pretty well considering they were cheaper than the Blue Bear one Meagan bought at a gift shop.  I don't think those Asians knew how to fill a balloon well :X  All these balloons are not the rubber ones btw.  They're all made from some shiny material.  Anyway, my brother cut of the ribbon from Meagan's balloon and it started floating in mid-air.  I left it on the other end of my house as my brother and I watched Fade to Black, the latest Bleach movie.  When we were done watching, I turned around and found the balloon in my face O_O  I thought it was pretty cool how it was floating in mid-air and wanted to take a picture but when I went to get my camera ready, it had already floated back through the hall; back to where it came from (like it was running away!)  I found it floating over my brother's bed...  It keeps turning slowly and I had the crazy suspicion that it might turn to the blank side and I'll see a face that wasn't supposed to be there...  When it turned and came closer to me, I thought it was going to stop right in front of me and explode...  Maybe I'm just making exaggerated contemplations but I'm sorta freaked out as to how I'll be able to handle the other three when they end up like their brethren.
