My brother was talking about how $10 could last him a day during his Polytechnic days. On good days, he could even have enough left for the next day.

Today I got $50 from Mom. After purchasing a pack of cigarettes (the cheapest I could find), topping up my card, lunch & dinner... I spent a whopping 70%. Within 12 hours.

My, my.

history, family

i spend money like water, necessary or not.. and i no longer get money from the parental units. heh. a few more years like this and you'll see me dancing for loose change at some MRT underpass.

$10 certainly isn't enough for a day. i had $10 once for school and i spent it all on... food. alone.

i have classmates who have $2 a day! :O
i have $5 a day. spend almost all on food outside. and its more than a must for me to fly home for dinner etc.

clothes etc. all is use "hard earned money previously" to pay off.

sis gets $40 a week. so $8 per day.
its really crazy heh.
my family i mean.

and uh yah, transportation and handphone bills(i paid for mine for like dec 05 - sept 06 & jan 07 - mar 07) parents pay.

hahahahahaha. so its POSSIBLE.
not impossible.
but its almost close to torturing yourself.
so people who scold me when i splurge. they should wack their own ass off. since i'm paying for all. *SIGH*
