20 Things I've Accomplished Since Turning 20: #4

By now it is pretty common knowledge that most of the world is being affected by economic changes and difficulties. With that in mind, it is extremely important to focus on spending habits as well as saving for our futures. In the spirit of saving for my own future, I recently opened a ROTH IRA. As this decade's younger generation, we might not be able to rely on social security when we reach the age of retirement, which may be later than our parents are looking at for retirement right now. So don't let the economy get you down; join me and start saving for your future with an IRA!

Yesterday I successfully completed RA training! Yay! It was an interesting two weeks, that's for sure! I learned all of the rules and regulations of our lovely campus and participated in all sorts of skits and activities. I stepped out of my comfort zone and attempted all sorts of new things all while meeting some pretty great people.

So this definitely isn't anything award-worthy. But as it was a first for me, I found it pretty exciting. Just a week ago I got an e-mail from Amazon. That's pretty normal... I get them on a regular basis, advertisements for new items that I might like to buy. This particular e-mail, though, was different. This e-mail was an announcement telling me that I a textbook that I had posted had just sold!

Yes, I can hear you rolling your eyes at me. But I've never sold anything online before! So I went through all of the steps of packaging, shipping, tracking and confirming the book and today I received the payment. SO cool.

Tonight I met with E1 and E2 (for the safety of minors I'm not disclosing their names), two little girls who are starting on the oboe! Not only was this their first lesson, but also my first time teaching anyone the oboe!
