Things I plan to buy with my first paycheck

So I get my first paycheck from work (I got a job a week ago, BTW) for $500. It's only half a paycheck 'cause I started midway through the pay period, but I've never even had $500 to my name before.

I have a plan all laid out for savings, school funds, car funds, etc. for when the proper paychecks come in, but I've decided to just recklessly blow this one on as much random stuff as possible.

So basically, here's what I hope to have in 4 days:

LEGO:
-Sith Infiltrator (newest version)
-Classic TIE Fighter (also newest version)
-Saesee Tiin's Jedi Starfighter
-Skopio (with a few bonus bits courtesy of Iro)

MUSIC:
-Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd (Vinyl)
-So Far, So Good... So What! by Megadeth (Vinyl)
-The Final Frontier by Iron Maiden (Double LP picture disc vinyl)
-No World For Tomorrow by Coheed & Cambria (Double LP Vinyl)
-The Afterman by Coheed & Cambria (vinyl)
-Dead Silence by Billy Talent

Also depending on how much I have left over, I may try to snag a vinyl copy of Rush's "2112".

funfunfun!

Niiiice. Where do you work?

At a company that builds small computer chips for indoor lights in Ford cars.

It's sort of like an assembly line, but not really. It just has the repetitiveness in common.

Man, your wage is good. I have never even made that much in week when I worked full time (Over 40 hours) during the summer. So yeah, I am totally jelly right now.

But anyway, I hope you are enjoying your job and you make good use of your money, dude.

EDITED: Hm...Sounds like an interesting company. What do you do for them exactly?

I'm not involved with building the circuitboards (yet) but after they're built, I inspect them, program them, test them, coat them with protective chemicals, and box them to be sent away to Ford. Not bad for $13/hour.
