:: woe is me ::


Sigh.

   I finally got my pay on Saturday. I was thrilled..naturally. I mean, i got my FIRST pay of RM500. Technically, i've never seen that much money on my hands unless it's well, chinese new year. Haha. Coz money that much usually don't last. Y'know-lah..like that Rejoice advert..."Mak, ini gaji Ellie...semua untuk mak." HAHAHA. All of my pay was too much too bear so i gave her a 100. >.<"

   Food for thought. Saturday = Mega sales.

   On Sunday, i went shopping in Pyramid for FIVE hours only to purchase things that were NOT on sale. I got myself another pair of Levi's. Nyeks. Which, thankfully, i did not have to pay for myself. Hehe. The first thing i purchased with my pay was...*drumroll*......

     ...a GUESS bag...

   It was bee-you-ti-ful. In my eyes la. It was 200 bucks. >.<" with only 10% off. Funderful. Practically half my pay gone. WHY WHY WHY??? I succumbed to being a materialistic little brat who bought a bag just bcoz she thought it was preety.

   Aww...i'm immersed with guilt...

   The money could've gone to a lot of things. Far more worthy things, that is. Like, a book. Or, CLOTHES, which i'm in dire need of. But no..ooooo, i went and bought a BAG instead. A bag that i should prolly mention,is wrapped up nicely in it's red Guess covering STILL in it's plastic...and hidden in my closet.

   My dad had a LOT to say...but he kept quiet. You can just tell...from his expression. He DID promptly tell me that my salary IS technically my allowance now. And if i think that i can get more money from him, i was wrong. He isn't an ATM machine or a pokok duit-duit...*chants to self* So, yup, i have 200 bucks to live on for FOOD, WATER and well, PERSONAL STUFFIES like going for movies and things like that till end of NEXT month. *sobs* This is worse than using up prepaid reloads even BEFORE it was time for reloading.

   I'm so embarassed with myself...

   But it really IS a purdy bag....*sniffs*

aiyooo...financial management at the age of 18...i do pity u.

and i must say 200 bucks for a bag...that's quite a lot. but girls would be girls. if i had 400 bucks on my hand, earned by my own hard labour, i'd probably buy myself a new pair of running shoes which would amount to about 200 bucks also. so yea dun feel bad. buying something u really really like would mean that u'd be making that 200 bucks really worth...:)

hey, just wondering if ud like to watch Wild Zebra with me. we could watch the sunday matinee for 50 bucks i think. lemme know k?
