1) Think of every shirt as a missed outting (maybe even 2) with your friends. When you think of your money spent as money that you could have spent doing something else, it will become easier.

2) Dont plan a huge trip to another country. Let your school do it for you. I went on two study abroads through my college by myself (as in, I didnt know anyone before I left...and Im a fairly shy person)...one to China and one to Argentina. I had a blast and spent considerably less and saw more than If I had done it alone. PLUS my scholarship covered the tuition AND I got college credit for both. What an experience! My only regret was that I didnt do more.

Good luck!
