you are my childhood superman!
i think im the most horrible finance manager of personal wealth- ever.
prior to shopping, i draw up a list that i make myself swear to follow religiously by, but when i reach home and dump all the big big small small shopping bags on my bed and whip out a piece of paper to record down what nonsense i bought, what i wrote down just scares me off, more often than not.
and this week, yours truly just blew $238.50 on shopping. ALONE. both online and offline. SHIAT. someone throw my bank book into my face and holler and me pls. and the worse part, i STILL complain to mum that I dont have enough clothes before I leave the house. poor mummy, she has to end up telling me how poor she was when living in broken down atap houses eons ago, and end up saying my allowance's actually more than enough.
which is true.
NOT.
I should learn to save up and not keep depending on my allowance.
allowance = food + transport + okay, occasional 1, 2 pieces of new clothes.
but now,
allowance = 10 new tops and 2 new bottoms.
WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING?!?!
ARGH.
okay, so me and the boy went shopping at far east on saturday last week, forked out half for his adidas shoes. he ah, also another one. we didnt even plan to buy the shoes. like, if he did plan, we would spend perhaps, 3 months? talking about it and it would be our main topic when we talk on the phone each night. but now, we also blew what we have on his spanking crisp pair of adidas shoes. we simply walked into the shoes shop, he pointed out that pair.
blue based,
pink stripes.
Girl: its not bad. why leh.
Boy (looks up and down the shoe boxes) its the last pair in my size, dear.
Girl: OH WOW. YOU WANT?
Boy: yah lor, i confirm can wear.
Girl: You better try first.
Boy (did a balancing act):There, told you i can wear.
Girl: okay good. lets buy it.
thank god i think its pretty, or i will be grumbling all the way home.
And so, half of my food money flew.
someone just throw both our bank books into our faces and holler at us!
SIGHSIGH.
and huijuan also another one. keep saying this nice that nice and makes me want to spend more when im already spending a lot, much more than she can see. ONLINE.
okay, this is a case of negative peer influence, hahaha.
getting my telemarketing pay on Wednesday! HAHAHAHAHA.
I hear a sigh of relief coming from somewhere up in that brain of mine.
Im off to shop online!
BYE!
