Meet Travel Piggy, formerly known as Power Piggy.

Travel Piggy has been doing an excellent job housing the money I earn for my trip.

Since I decided on going, I've been really focusing on saving money. I pay my bills, my rent, buy food, and put money aside.

Between the money I've saved in Travel P and donating plasma (mmm, giant needles in my arm), I've come to the grand total of $865. I opened up a savings account the other day and shook out my piggy and deposited the $700+ I had in cash.

I'm well on my way to making this trip a reality.

Let's  be honest, seeing this face in a bank would be pretty intimidating...
