Money.

This is kind of a response to Vittoria's thing, how her mom wondered why we go out to eat so much when we haven't that much money. Really, we don't go out to eat that much... I mean for all last week, I never even ate at home and my mom just had those microwave dinners. The main reason we eat out a lot (once ever two weeks?) is because my mom isn't that great at cooking, and she never makes things from scratch, it's always things you heat up in the oven or something. So that means I usually use my money to buy myself food to eat, so maybe that's why it sounds like we go out to eat so much? Because I go out to eat a lot, or to pick it up and bring it back.

I just don't feel like money is something that you can waste. Yeah, you can blow it on things, but it's really just an opinion. Some things might seem worth it to other people, where it would seem like a waste to you. Like, I honestly don't care much about my money. I'll have just enough to get what I need, but if I want something I'll get it. I guess that's how my parents are, sure we don't always have the money to go out to dinner, but we do anyway, just because it feels better going out to a restaurant and having fun. And since both of my parents are employed, we get the money back anyways, and we're back where we started. I know my parents have some way of managing it, but I don't see it, but I don't really care either.

I just always hate the viewpoint that you need money to make you happy, and I guess that's where my opinions on it come from. Yeah, you need it to do things, but if you know you're going to do something then it's easy to save up for it. I dunno where I was going anymore, but mostly I'm just one of those people that trusts everything to just work out. It's probably a really ignorant view, but it always seems to happen anyway.

ANd yeah, dunno why I was posting this, but yeah. I understand your mom said it, I was just putting out my views on what she said XD Not directed at you, Vittoria.
