money :(


Question Posted Monday March 28 2011, 7:48 pm

18/f

I'm a teenage girl.. obviously I want money so i can spend it on things I like. I haven't gone shopping since last summer.. I can't remember the last time I even bought something for myself just for the hell of it.

Just an FYI, i'm suffering with minor depression (personal issues going on). My friend told me that I should try to splurge and buy stuff for myself to make me feel better about myself. Like buying a new outfit or buying new makeup etc. But the thing is.. I HAVE NO MONEY! :(

I'm looking for jobs but here's the thing.. i play volleyball and its all year round. Plus I play competitively which means I practice 3 times per week and have tournaments every other weekend. When i'm not playing ball, i'm at school or doing homework. If i'm not doing that, i'm doing house work (don't have a mom) so i have to cook and clean and do laundry for me and my dad. (he's no help). If i'm not doing house work or homework or sports, i hang out with my boyfriend. Simply put.. i have no time for myself. Like i said, i have minor depression and I would really like to spend more time for myself. I'd like to get my hair done, or nails done, go shopping etc. but i have no money :(

do you have any advice or tips on how i can get some money? like i said before, i'm a really busy person. I don't have much time for a job. if i did have one, i could work 1 day per week. MAYBE 2 or 3 times every other week. Is there any sort of job that is flexible enough for me? Or any other ways to attain money? I've tried selling useless things on craigslist but its really slow :/ HELP! (no garage sale. i live in a very very small town in the middle of no where and nobody would want my rotten stuff anyways haha)

thank you!!!

Try McDonalds. I know it sounds crapy but I really love my job just wish it paid more. You can work certain days they are pretty flexabile on your scheduling and youll make a little bit of money yu can work 2 days a week. volley ball allll the time might not be for you no matter how much you love it. and your dad is old enough to start taking care of him self you are 18 you wont be living there for ever.

To be honest, no job is going to hire you to work one day a week. At my part-time job (bagger at a grocery store), I'm getting a minimum of 16 hours a week, which usually means working 4 days a week- and some weeks, I'm there 6 days.

Your best bet would be something where you pick your availability, like babysitting.
