payday

:: GLAY - Will Be Kings ::

Last month was not fun at all, my account suffering a brutal beating by me.. and i didnt even buy anything other than daily appliances! It was hella scary, seeing my account went down to 2 digit numbers were enough to put me into panic mode.. and i was only well into the first week of the month :S

All i did was spend the remaining money on fruit and cheap canned foods.. and i had to put the rest on credit card, so i could pay that off when i get my paycheck at the end of the month. Some of my coworkers knew what i was going thru.. and were willing to help out by sharing some portion of their lunch with me. Some even offered me for dinner at their houses, but i had to refuse that offer.. i didn't want to be a burden to them and it didnt feel right.

Afterall, it was all my doing that got me into this mess.

Basically, it was because I had to make plans for next year; when i was in vancouver for those 2 weeks.. I made a bank account and deposited 3/4 of my savings in there for safe keep later for school purposes.

What I didn't know was, the money had all been exchanged into canadian dollars, and the economy went to shits right after i came back. CAD went from 7.6 to 6.3.. it was shocking.

If i take out that money right now, I would be losing a huge chunk of money cause of the exchange rate, so fuck that. I went home and was forced to use my remaining savings in the meantime.. my last paycheck went all straight into paying my credit card bills, paying off airfares and the routine bills were one hell of a bitch =/ Also, I knew i had to make more money for the coming month, so i went ahead and Overtimed as much as possible at work.. that helped me made a few extra bucks and prevented me from going out.

Perseverance and many hungry nights later, payday finally arrived. After I made my ATM trip at work, I totally felt like a new man again, having money again in my wallet definitely felt good.

However, I dont know how much money i can save within this upcoming month.. December is christmas seasons, and there's discounts on every store!

Vicious cycle starts allllllll over again :/
