Short Financial Update before I go

Before I board the plane to sunny, beautiful Vancouver…

I do have to mention that I will be getting my paycheque this week, but I won’t have internet or a laptop until July-ish, so technically I can’t pay my debt off in full until July, but I also had the money in June to do so – just no internet connection.

I only owe $1,419.42 left on my loan, and June 30th, I’ll be making an automatic payment of $594.22 from my automatic debit, and after that’s done, I’ll see what’s left to be paid + interest and I am DONE MY GORILLA DEBT

*happy happy joy joy*

This is going to be the best coming-home-from-vacation present ever. 😀
