Stolen ipod, fast money


Question Posted Thursday July 10 2008, 12:14 pm

Hi there! Ok, so a few months ago, when I was still in school, I got a brand new black 8g 3rd generation ipod for my birthday. My parents wouldn't buy it for me for my birthday unless I saved up half the money for it. So I payed for only half of it. Well, stupid me decided to take it to school on a field trip day, and stupid me left it in my backpack, in the locker room. Of course, it got stolen. I was, and still am upset because I had only saved up 100 dollars exactly, so I didn't have any money left. Obviously, my parents weren't so hapy about me getting it stolen and taking it to school in the first place. They still say "I told you so". Plus it wasn't my birthday anymore, so they wouldn't pay for half of the cost again. Basically, I need to make the money REALLY quick. I only have 52 dollars now, and I'm getting payed on saturday for babysitting my sisters. I'm going on a 20 hour road trip to florida in august sometime and I NEED my music O.o I will die without it. So yeah, the basics;

-I'm 14
-I HATE to baby sit ok? I really hate it so PLEASE don't suggest it.
-I can do yard work, but i'm not very good at it he he...Im not very "thorough" I guess?

and that's pretty much it. Also,I have volleyball camp coming up soon and I don't know about a job. I am really stuck, PLEASE help!

Ask your parents if you can do some work around the house, or see if you can walk dogs in the morning, when people don't feel like doing it.

I managed to make a lot of money by walking dogs at 6.30 am because other people couldn't be bothered to.

If you really want this ipod back.. you should do anything for it.. it shows how much you want it.. If you aren't willing to baby sit even if you hate it..just to get money for the ipod.. it shows that you really don't want it as bad as you think you do.

That's just me.
I've done things I hated just for the reward..because I knew it's something that I really wanted.
If this isn't the answer your looking for I'm unsure what to say. It's just my honest opinion. I say babysit to matter how much you hate it..if you really want the ipod that is.
