Dance dance

April 26th, 2014 at 09:28 am

I got my first call for the Polynesian dance job. It's a training show a couple of hours away. 50 bucks and I can carpool so little to no gas. Considering I thought it was 10 an hour and shows last less than 2, I was pleasantly surprised.

I'm a little nervous since I only know one dance and my technique is not at all refined, but I'm guessing the untrained eye really only cares that your hips are moving and doesn't really notice whether it's the exact shape Smile

I've been trying to decide whether to snowball the money from this job or use it to start building a slush fund. I have a linked savings account that I put 25 a month into, and I could use that as the slush fund and (since I've stopped touching it) put the job money into debt repayment. Any thoughts?

    The Polynesian dance group sounds like fun and likely pays off more in weight loss on all the right places. How are you doing with that long list of tasks on earlier posts? I'd put $ 20. in the slush fund and $ 30. to the principal of the smallest SL. Over time it could reduce the SL significantly.

    Snafu has a right idea...put it in both for awhile.

    Definitely made some progress this weekend Snafu. Will update it tomorrow in a post. I like the idea of throwing some at the student loan. I've been so focused on the car, but I do put an extra 25 to the lowest student loan each month.
