And Away We Go!

Hello there,
So lets see... I have so much to tell you about. :)I'm sure that your dieing to hear too. So Friday night Me and Caleb did a little laundry and we watched a movie while we did that. ( It was Rio Bravo, If you were wondering! ) After that it was about 10ish and Caleb didn't really want to go back to his dorms to go to sleep, so he suggested that we go bowling. I then remembered that it was half price bowling! So we had to wait about an hour but while we waited we played some pool! It was super fun. They even had some free food there which I made sure to grab some sandwiches for lunches later. haha! Then by the time we were done with that it was late so we said our goodbyes.

Saturday-
Well... first we went and looked at an apartment that Caleb wanted to check out at about 10:30 in the morning... which is pretty early for me to get up on a Saturday. lol Once we were done looking at that ( which he pretty much took me along just to take pics!) we went back to our own places. I took a little nap and then got the brilliant idea to go to the capitol. So we decided to be a little spontaneous and go to capitol.Lucky for us it was only an hour away! When we got to the capitol we were afraid it was closed... but it wasn't..! yay! We ,however, were the only people looking around in it. It was pretty awesome. haha! Once we were done playing around in there we went and got tickets to go see Couples Retreat at this $2 theater! While we waited for our movie we did a little looking around in the mall.. which wasnt Caleb's favoties thing to do. Finally, we watched the movie (which was pretty good.. however, not as funny as i thought it would be) Then we drove home having a very good chat!

So I think that all in all we had a pretty cheap weekend...! And if you are ever bored and tired of just being in your town.. try maybe going to the next town over.. it may not be crazy exciting but its at least some different scenry! Just make it an Adventure!
Well this is Joee signing off! :)

A small splurge! :)

Ok guys...
So I have a confession. Lets see.. how do i say this. haha. Well, you see I heard from some ladies at my work that Sarah Palin was going to be in Salina, and so I called to see if they had any tickets left and they did! :) So I went ahead and bought them. So they weren't that cheap. I mean they were $25 a pieace. Which isn't horrible.. but i thought that i better confess that. Its SOO going to be worth it though. What I was thinking about doing is kind of having this be Caleb's Valentines present. I mean that makes sense right? I am just SOO excited. But it does stink now that it was $50. So now our dates will have to be even cheaper. haha! Welp.. I hope you guys aren't too mad and disappointed at me.. haha :)

oooh.. on a random note. I have been doing the free 2 week trail of Netflicks. I've been loving it. Because check this out.. you can watch movies INSTANTLY onto your computer. haha so ya. So it is really nice because we don't have to like go rent a movie we can watch one free INSTANTLY onto my computer.. ITS GREAT!! haha but ya i will be sad when it is over. :( All well. That's all i have for now!
well Later Gators. !

Being Cheap = Creative Dates

OK!!!
So... where to start with my SUPER fun weekend! lol Well. I guess i should start at the beginning. Well Friday night Me and Caleb ate in my dorm dinning hall with some friends. I used a guest pass so Caleb could eat with me. Which worked out great. After that we hung out with some of my SUPER fun friends... we played some imagine if.. and then we watched.... wait for it..... EXTREME DAYS!! the best movie ever.. or so i thought way back in the ol church camp days. haha. It was too fun.. So lets see... we spent.. $0 dollars that night... :) yay!!!

Saturday..
So this was a pretty fun day.. Me and Caleb didn't hang out until around 4ish. We went ice skating! And it only cost $2 for shoes and $2 to get in.. so it was only $8 dollars for the both of us.. which isn't too bad. It was fun. However, i had to wear some men shoes cause they ran out of my size in women's so my shoes were VERY uncomfortable... But it was still fun.. Caleb seem to really enjoy it. He's brother and his wife joined us too. so it was a very cute double date.
After we were done ice skating. Me and Caleb went on the hunt for some cheap food.. and we did find quite the deal.. ready to hear it??? ok.. We went to Wendy's and both got this chicken deluxe meal which was only 2.99 per person. not bad huh?? It was SOOO tasty! :) mmm
Then we went and bowled with a friend which was pretty cheap too because we had a coupon for buy one game get the other game FREE!! :) :) .. Then after that... (yes we did some many things i know) we went to Caleb's brother's and watched post grad..
(which i had seen but wasn't paying much attention..).

Finally after that we said our sad but sweet goodbyes.....:'( .. However.. once i got to my room. i went to tell my roommate all about my EXCITING evening.. I went to get my camera... and what do you know i realized that i forgot my camera at the bowling ally. talk about trying not to freak out. haha. However, no worries i quickly called Caleb and told him and then called the bowling ally and luckily they had just closed and would wait for Caleb to get there. So I called Caleb to ask him if he would go get it.. and he was already on his way there.. Isn't that sweet??? i know!! I love him! hehe lucky me.. So yes.... lets just say.. yesterday was a very exciting and eventful day..
Sorry for such a long post... well.. until the next cheap date!!!:)

yours truly ,

I have been dating this handsome, charming boy named Caleb for about 2 years and exactly 4 months today!! I am a girl that likes to spend her money. Even though i happen to be dating a guy that likes to be cheap and responsible with his money... which is a good quality! hehe sometimes! ;) I am writing this blog about how 2 college students find creative ways to go on fun but cheap dates. It will also include me discussing the difficulties of keeping a low budget in college and the stresses it can have on relationships!!
