    pay my parents bribe money to let me live in their house for another 2 years.
    This just cracked me up. :chuckle

    First paycheck as a RN...I have the bmw I want - specs, color, and all - chosen and saved at bmwusa.com. I can't wait to hit the *purchase* button after graduation!

    After that, money will be spent on "Conceiving for Dummies" books and equipment, a crib, stroller...the complete baby package. It will finally be the time for my husband and me to have our first child.

    *edit*

    This is a great thread. It's nice to see what everyone is looking forward to!

    I will first check the name and make sure it is really mine!

    Then I will start at it for awhile...

    I have never had a "real" paycheck before so I have no idea what I am going to do!
    with my kind of luck...my name will be spelled wrong! lol

    Buy nicotine patches to stop smoking!!!! All the stress of school is over, boy that will be a great day.

    Buy food for the house that is NOT microwavable.

    Buy scrubs… all colors of the rainbow, NO WHITE ones. (buy fire wood to burn the white scrubs- although all the bleach used on them may cause a fire hazard)
