Sophia, thank you, I NEEDED to hear all the stuff you're saying in this post.
I'm usually the same way, in that I have the same phone I've had since I was 18, no camera, just about never go shopping (although I have been buying rollerball perfumes at Sephora more than I should have been, lately...).
When I first started dancing, my old 2001 civic finally broke down and I had to get a new truck (which I just got in a fender bender with today and am castigating myself over as we speak. Ugh.). I also am having to move out of a terrible but very cheap living situation into a new and better but much more expensive apartment soon. I feel like these expenses should have only made me pinch pennies harder than I normally do, but for some reason it now seems like money is just flowly freely through my hands. Part of it is that I no longer feel comfortable cooking in my current living situation, so I eat out all the time. Nothing expensive, just deli sandwiches etc., but still, it adds up.
So, basically, I NEEDED this money pep talk to get my priorities back on track.
