I had to be VERY careful with my money so that I'd have enough to last the whole semester.
Yeah I was surprised too and I think she started to understand after spending the week with us and I'm sure after going to some of the other chapters she came to understand too.

I think it's interesting the variety of jobs and reasons why people had them.
