well minimum wage is $7.25 an hour, possibly more depending on the area, and she can only working part time so she can go to school and hang out with her friends so she's possibly making, at least, somewhere around $145.00 a week, $725.00 a month, and $8700.00 a year, maybe even more depending on how long she works, how much minimum wage is in the town, and how much the restaurant gives her in wages and tips so would that be enough for her room and all the stuff she owns? wonder what she would do about college, scholarships maybe or taking out a loan. she's very smart, almost as much as twilight i assume. sorry its just really interesting to me how she's getting by in the human world.
