Successfully complete the June Dining Out Challenge. I set myself a target to only spend $200 in June for dining out. This may seem like a lot, but it’s not. I want to pay for BF’s birthday/our anniversary dinner, and my sister and I will be contributing to our dad’s 60th birthday dinner.
Get my raise processed at work. Fingers crossed that I’ll see the raise on my June 6th pay cheque.
$100 into Emergency Fund.
$200 into Travel Fund. I feel kind of bad because I’m putting so much into my Travel Fund, when all that could be going to other places … but it’s important to me … so until I can convince myself otherwise, I’m going to keep contributing between $200-300/month.
$400 into Retirement Portfolio. When I hit my Retirement Portfolio goal, I’ll probably stop contributing altogether. By July, I’ll be eligible for my company’s RPP plan. It’s only 4%, but it comes with a 4% match … so that’s not bad. I doubt I’ll max out my RRSPs this year, but who knows? I didn’t plan on maxing them out last year, but I did it anyway.
$200 into Condo Down Payment Fund. At this rate, I’m never going to afford to buy a condo. But, I guess I’m not in a rush. If by some chance, I do end up going traveling after 2010 for 6 months, I wouldn’t want to buy property before then anyway.
Hang out with 3 different people who live in Vancouver. This will be my attempt at “making friends.” I’m such a shy, introverted person until you get to know me, so this is going to be interesting. Sometimes I feel like just by saying I’m introverted, that gives me an excuse to keep being that way.
Make an extra $100.
Weigh less than 130 lbs. I was reminded of this goal by SavingDiva, who is also trying to get below 130 lbs. Ideally, I’d be between 125-127. It won’t really make that much of a difference, I don’t think. I’m a size 4 right now at 133 … perhaps I’d drop down to a size 2, but I doubt it.
