I'll be honest and say the next thing I am going for is a suit no matter what that is the next thing.

Everything I took with me was borrowed or cheap the camera was given to me a few months ago and I had a borrowed laptop and the camcorder with sd card came to $35 total. So I guess I shouldn't have expected much.

But I kept thinking over this past week... In Dec. I borrowed $500 from work in advances to help pay for a car which I continued to spend $700+ or so more while I paid back the borrow. Then since March to May I was able to save up almost $1200 but ended up spending over $300. Now I don't have that kind of money anymore but I figure I can save maybe 2 to3 hundred a month.

I may live on nearly nothing and not buy anything I want for several months but a suit... I figure I could pay for easy by the end of the year. Problem is most ones I see so far focus on canine and feline or are commissioned until like next year almost.

Most suits and people really are canines and felines. Kinda gets bland in my opinion. I have someone who lives within a hundred miles who is getting into making suits. And for an entire head, would be about 85 bucks. Pretty cheap considering most others would net over 200 for the head.

Saving up is tough. But I suppose you also don't have to get it all at once. Just kinda the cost of materials. Makes sense since you wouldn't want to buy it all and then need to recoup your losses when they back out.

Thats a pretty cheap rental for sure.

A camera I am looking at is about 400 bucks. And I would get the biggest card I can get for it. Since I may as well. A summer thing I suppose. Can play with it over the summer and next semester.

An advance one isn't too bad. Problem is that its only 150 bucks. Could use a couple more of those. But also selling a couple things that may fill in the gap. If not a 200 dollar loan isn't going to be busting any balls either to get rid of. Just not doing full time school next semester. Couple classes and thats it.I blame the math and english forced to take. Those messed it all up.

I would suggest buying parts at a time from the person. As opposed to all at once, and figure 50-100 bucks a month of saving would be able to get you one.
