Got my first paycheck today!

Well, I started working at McDonald's around the end of July, and today, I got my first paycheck. I knew about the tax deduction, so I wasn't disappointed when I found out I got $188 for working 36 or so hours.

I bought Guitar Hero: On Tour (NDS), and I still have $135 left. I might buy a Wii game, or a Wiiclip, but I don't want to risk screwing up my Wii. I'll probably get Mario Superstar Sluggers when it comes out, since I loved the GCN baseball game.

About the Pokemon game (see the subtitle)...I might continue my Gold hack (It's called Pokemon Olive, and you play as a girl), or just create a Pokemon game with Game Maker 7 (I'd use GM6, but of course, GM6 doesn't work with Vista) once I buy the registered version soon. The GM7 version won't be called Pokemon Olive, so I'd still need a name. Also, if anyone wants to help with my Gold hack, PM me with what you can help with. BTW, I'm not creating any Fakemon, since AGIxp (Sprite inserter) keeps screwing up the backsprites of Pokemon. I could use a storyline writer and possibly a mapper (I will handle most of the mapping, though).

Get the WiiClip, I was worried at first but it is a great investment and pretty easy.
 
I got my first paycheck yesterday working as a counselor in a camp. Good luck on the job, I hope I get a new job soon.
 
ahhh I remember my first pay check, it went straight to my bank account...lol. But it will be the first of many cause now you are a working class citizen. I think I bought some video games with my check too...
 
Get a clip, its EASY to open up and close your Wii. A 13 year old kid can do it (me). You should be able too.
 
Glad you took your first step into a self-sustaining world. Congrads...celebrate with lots of video games ... I certainly did with my first pay cheque.
 
From what my friend says (He installs all my modchips for me) clips are easy to install

Game Maker is pretty good if you learn how to use it, I got bored of it.
Good luck on your game.
 
Good job, man.

I got my first paycheck last summer and boy was I happy.
My first real job and loads of cash (to me, at least!) to spend on whatever I want.

School rolls around, however, and now I find my paycheck is being cut in half. :(

Enjoy your cash, mate, and don't spend it all in one place! :D
 
Enjoy your cash now because as you progress through life, that cash won't be all your's anymore.
 
I wish I had a job. I wrote a resume, handed them in, etc, and never got a call from any places.

I feel so cheated, knowing that every single friend of mine who has a job got one from the help from their parents, or family. I had to do everything myself, and my parent's didn't do anything about it.

Enjoy it!

I'm probably going to get the WiiClip, but what kind of DVDs should I buy? I'm not really in the know of that kind of stuff, so a suggestion would be appreciated.
 
DVD+R and DVD+R DL in some cases, I would choose sony brand for the DVD5(DVD+R) and Verbatim for the DVD9(DVD+R DL[Dual Layer= 8,5GB]).
At least I've been using those for my xbox360 and I haven't had any dead burn.
