I was chatting via email with dearest Yanping today and revealed to her that i won't be able to shop with her anymore. I have a serious case of 'saving deficiency'. Yes...i made that up.
Starting from my next pay, i have no choice but to save about 26.9% of my take home pay. Yeah it doesn't seem much to you guys because i have not calculated in bills, transport fees, my lunch/dinner in the case i don't bring any food to work, money for my mommy,grandma and sisters and other important expenses. My daily expenses when i'm working fluctuates like crazy. Some things might come up like let's say, someone's birthday and somebody calls you up and say "hey wanna share and get 'somebody' a birthday present?" or "hey, 'somebody' is leaving the company next week, wanna share and get 'somebody' something?" or "hey, let's meet up for our project this weekend. we'll talk it over lunch or something." Oh and not forgetting, i must love myself at least once a month and treat myself to a movie or a nice cup of caramel frappe from Mccafe or once in a while, get myself something nice to eat at work and not bring lunch to work instead. OH and not forgetting, sometimes things just need to be bought at home...like lets say a new pack of sanitary pads, shampoo, shower gel or a new toothbrush.
So there, i can't do any shopping at Forever21 or get a new pair of shoes from Charles & Keith or have a nice lunch with Yanping at Pizza Hut or Ramen Ten. All these will have to wait for at least 3 months and i don't know if i can handle this kind of pressure!
GASP!!!
