Money Money and Money.. Is money really that essential? But im sure money cant buy everything. As i grow older, i ve noticed that pple started to talk about money issues. My mum is complaining to me everyday on how little bonus she got this year.. money not enough and stuffs like that but looks like everything are linked to money issues. There she is complaining to me how money is not enough and here im telling her i wanted to go overseas for studies. Rather contradicting right.
Then at the class gathering, Ms soh was asking me whether i ever thought of upgrading my SLR camera to a digital SLR (the one that mr yeo owns). Of course im dreaming of having a digital camera and i really envy mr yeo for owning one. But but but its money again. I m a poor student, i dont hold any part time jobs and im not born with a sliver spoon. Its like everyday i even got to scrimp and save to pay my phone bills and transportation. Frankly speaking if i got extra cash, i rather save for my further studies instead of buying a digital camera.
Moreover, looks like nowadays even the neighbourhood flourist is also that realistic. When my mum approach her to ask about the price for the stupid bunch of artifical new year flowers, she gave my mum those look like i knew u cant afford it, then she said the flowers at the other corner suits HDB flats better . At that point of time, I jus feel like screaming at the flourist " WHAT DO U MEAN? ARE U LOOKING DOWN ON PPLE STAYING IN HDB FLATS? HOW DO U KNOE WE DONT STAY IN A LANDED PROPERTY!". Well its like u cant judge a book by its cover, does the pple who stays in landed property got the words " i stay in landed property" written on their foreheads?
So i jus feel that money is forever not enough! we got to constantly tell ourselves to look forward. Eg now u r staying in HDB flats, aim for a condo followed by a terrace house. OR better still.. study hard, get urself a PHD then marries someone with the same qualifications. With the combined income. im sure u can definetely afford a private housing or at least a condo.
Anywayz, im just frustrated..
