If you'd bought the June issue of Her World magazine, turn to page 256 and probably you'd get an idea of what kinda life I've been living lately. And if you hadn't gotten yourself a copy, here's a little excerpt:
[There's only one thing I dread more than PMS and putting on weight - being BROKE. When the cash flow ceases, so does my social life. And in Singapore, it seems nearly impossible to leave the house without spending at least $20 a day.
I've always figured out that the safest way to survive through tough times is by vegging at home, in my bedroom or in front of the television instead of going out. But believe me, being a hermit does not help!! I usually end up splurging what little money I have on junk food and every issue of the latest fashion magazines to make up for the boredom that comes with my financial rut. And the drink and grocery bills I chalk up when I try to "keep it simple" does nothing to help the situation....]
So you see, Eileen has been trying to be a good gal, trying to save money by staying at home. But she becomes lazier and lazier, waking up at some unearthly hour. Then she splurge whatever little money she has left on tidbits, more tidbits, strawberries which she so love, and the latest issue of magazines. As the days go by, she has got more tidbits, more strawberries, more magazines but lesser money in her bank account. Wahahahaha, and not forgetting to say, that lazy worm in her has been growing. Oh well, maybe this feature story of Her World is for her then, providing her ways of getting free things, ya - scavenge. Maybe she should try one for a start eh?
Ahh, but at least she did something productive today. She paid off her debts to this person call Simon ya... *sniggers* She paid her HP bills.... so that means less money to talk off. *deep sigh* Ok, at least she found an enjoyable and money-saving activity - taking photos with digicam!! (Maybe can suggest to Her World as Scavenge#10) Jo bought her digicam, and it looks fun with the twistable LCD panel. So the 3 gals were happily taking photos at TM, with Simon somewhere trying to shun the 3 maddies who were like never been to TM. Nice photos taken, hmmm, will post them up when she gets...ermm...over her laziness.... bleh
P/S: Hee, I'd got myself the 7th prize in the D & D lucky draw ~! It's a DKNY watch, not very my type, but as what he says, it's better than nothing. If given a choice, I'd gladly exchange for that TV, phone or palmtop anytime!!! *arbish* Greedy me.... =
