It's been a long time, and I'm sorry you keep seeing the same post time and again when you visit bimboqueen.
What's new in my life now? I've kinda started my attachment, just muddling along bit by bit and feeling very confused at times and unsure of what to do. My boyfriend says I'll be a workaholic when I start earning proper money. I beg to differ, cos I know what a lazy bum I am.
I'm not even crystal clear about my plans after my diploma. Should I work for a few years before deciding if I want to get a degree in Mass Communication or Business (HR)? Should I still go to Australia for two years to get my degree? Should I get a degree locally in a private university? Should I? Should I not? Should I? Should I not? OR SHOULD I JUST BE A HOSTESS. HAHAHA!
My greatest ambition in life, since I was fourteen, is to become a taitai. No, scrap that, I don't have to be a taitai. I just wanna live comfortably and sit at home all day watching movies and soap serials, play SRO, and be able to go shopping and indulge in manicures and pedicures. I'm not asking too much, but from the way things are going, I'd probably have to work my ass off till i'm 55, and taking care of two bratty monstrous kids at the same time.
So, how much does one have to earn to be able to "live comfortably"? A combined household income of 6K? 7k? What defines comfort? Sometimes I think I can be poor and happy, but sometimes I know I've to be realistic. Money DOES make one happier.
Being brought up in a family that provides me with whatever I want (well, most of the things)- basic necessities and more, I know it'll take some getting used to if I've to watch every penny I spend. I'm practicing that now, because ever since I started work (I don't get paid for work btw...) I have to make sure that fixed sum of money from my parents each month must be spent wisely, or I'll be spending the last week of the month in hunger.
I never had to worry about going hungry. I never had to worry about new clothes and shoes. I never had to worry about taking a loan for buying a laptop. I never had to worry about paying for my phone bills (except the part that mum flips whenever my bill hits 80 bucks, which is like every month). I never had to worry about not having enough money for my tertiary education. Saying all that out makes me sound like a spoilt brat. I'm not. My parents are thrifty people, spending on only what they need, and I think I should learn from then. Maybe having a family of your own really forces you to learn.
Digressing, it's been a long time since I went shopping. I think I've kinda lost interest in it, or maybe it's because I'm as poor as church mice most of the times.
On a less jaded note, I got an early birthday present from my parents this year. A spanking new Nokia 6280, in dark orange. It has a good camera, pretty good sound system, and nice graphics. My phone is so old that it's only worth ten bucks if I trade it in. HAHA!
Finally got my driving licence. Licence proper and all, with my ugly face on the licence. I passed on the third time, so be please be proud of me. And no, I didn't pay them to pass. Daphne passed on the fourth time and she still holds the family record. Anyone, fancy a ride?
Results are coming out tomorrow, think I'll have a hard time sleeping tonight.
