How's life iLa?

Pretty mundane.
Given the fact that work is simply sitting on the chair infront of the slow speed computer in the makeshift office in the meeting room on the 19th floor.
While at the same time,
applying for other jobs with good pay & full time benefits.
In addition,
having a lookouts for tuitions.
Not forgetting,
endless job applications and countless job rejections.

Have you been partying hard?

Hell NO!
How are you supposed to party when all you have left is a miserable zero in your bank account?
The pay that is coming in tomorrow isin't helping either as it will be a measly 150 bucks.
150 & nothing else.
Seems like the chalet that is coming up will not really be a chalet for me.
Haha...
Hope there's sponsors for me during the chalet.

It can't be that bad right?

Haha...
You think I'm kidding?
Put it this way.
S$150 - S$50 (Transport money) - S$30 (Contact lense solution) - S$18 (Hair cream) - S$10 (Chalet money)= S$42
Erm...
How do you survive with S$42 in a month?
Per day maximum spending: S$42/31 days= S$1.35
So what can I buy with S$1.35 per day?

Have you ever ask money from your parents?

My parents?
Mum a housewife & I can't ask money from her 'cause she herself doesn't have any income.
Dad wouldn't support me anymore as I'm already out of school.
Elder bro not earning much & anyways, since when does he remember his lilttle sister?
So thats a big NO in getting money from my family.
& anyways,
I'm not a leech in sucking out money from my own family members.
It's good that I'm train since young to be financially independant & responsible.
So if I go broke or in need of cash,
it's my own problem in solving the problem and finding the solution.
How I save my money & how I spend it,
I will be responsible for the outcome.
But I do splurge on stuff when I have the resources.
At times,
I'm just lucky that my folks buy for me gadgets for birthdays or nessecities when I really need it.
That's all.
I've never ask a single thing from my parents since the day my Mum retire to be a housewife.
& I'm proud to say that I learnt to be financially independant since young.

So are you happy with your life?

Of course I am!
Although at times,
I do wish things are much better.
More cash,
better work,
better education,
more friends who understands & be there for me,
more outings...
But I am happy the way I am right now.
Life is tough I agree,
but that just make it more interesting.
If each day is the same & everywhere you go,
all the friends you have,
are the same,
life will be more lifeless.
You wouldn't experience the feeling of anger,
hatred,
love,
happiness,
joy!
Challenges & changes makes you a better and tougher person with each experiences.
I wouldn't be who I am right now if not for those experiences both bad & good that I went through for the past almost 20 years.

Peace out.
