Can it be true? Seriously? I checked my gusto page, and someone had commented a congrats for winning, and so when I checked my email, lo and behold, I won!!!

I was stoked, like game show stoked. The first thing I did was email my boyfriend a "holy goodness is this for real" Email. And then I told my dad,who, practial and weary of anything internet, wanted to be sure it's legit.

But what to do with the money? The practical side of me urges me to save for the future, while the "fun" side of me is going over possiblities of taking my family out to a good restaurant......Man, I'd love to travel again.....but Im in school in March. I cant travel again this summer. Being in Cali, living out of a suitcase for almost a month makes one weary of traveling.

But I guess what I really want to do, since this is a summer sweepstakes, is put it away towards a fun  spring or summer trip next year. I mean, the w hole purpose of the sweepstakes is for that, right? I'd really, really hate to see it go to bills and the like....man, I'd hate that.....so I think I'm going to end up putting 800 of it in savings towards a fun graduation trip next spring and 200 of it to have fun now. =) I mean, you only live once, right? I've NEVER won anything, and I wanna take advantage.

But I do want to thank gusto so, so much for this! Iwasnt even going to do it, but I thought "what the hell, if I win, some of the money will pay back the trip, and since I know I wont win, I'll be working anyways." And...I won!!! Makes me want to enter th lottery.

So, more later, I'll type in some more cali blogs asap.!
