I'm not so sure about eating Ramen all the time. I've heard of people getting terribly sick off that because thats all they ate. Not sure if thats true, but either alota that stuff ain't exactly good for me. My plan is to just not eat out alot, and learn to cook better. You can have pretty good meals that are still cheap.

I gotta be honest. I'm a little nervous about my first year pay too. I start training in 3 weeks. I'm doing farely well at my current job so this us going to be a small blow.
