TRANSPORTATION ...YIKES

I do not live in New York but all the castings are in New York right?So i usually take AMTRAK and no I do not know anyone who works for AMTRAK.Its March 19th so taxes are due soon.As I sit here putting all my paperwork together, I was putting together all my transportation costs related to MODELING.Do you know in the year of 2011, I spent more than 700 DOLLARS on AMTRAK!!! THATS CRAZY!! NO wonder I was dirt broke last year.And I only booked one job last year.700+ photo shoots I had to pay for, plus other model related fees--- OH MY GOSH!!! Im nearing the $2,000 mark in terms of money I have spent.THAT IS CRAZY!!!! The cost is WAY WAY WAY TOO HIGH!! Boys and girls, modeling is so so so expensive.Ay, a poor African girl like me, wasting money like that?!?!? Um, no, NO more AMTRAK for now on.ONLY BUS. That will save me at least 600 dollars. I cant believe I spent that much money-- no wonder I didn't have any money last year. RIDICULOUS!!!
