027. Self-Indulgence session ...
Ever since I resigned in 2010 and then rolled back to university as Graduate student, money has become something 'precious'. I no longer have fixed monthly income. I cannot take projects as much as I want -- and since I have classes, most times, I end up saying 'no' to project offers. In result, my income has dwindled significantly. In fact, in February/March, I pretty much only live from my savings because I have no income at all. I start to note down on money I have spent and set aside budget. Safe to say, I haven't treated myself for shopping in quite awhile.
Yesterday, though, I feel like I need the self-indulgence session. I got paid for two very small projects I did in March and after I set aside some of it for my living cost for the next month, I had some left to shop. So I did. It was great -- and I got few clothes. Stopped myself for buying shoes though, it would exceed the budget, and that I couldn't afford ....
Sigh, money ... you can't really live without it
