Save me.
I want to go to England!
I have to save money. I have to, I have to. I'm already very broke.
Starting today, I should only have $100 in my wallet each month. So let's say by March I've $50 left, I can only withdraw another $50 for the rest of the month of March.
WORK.1. Leave NETS at home.
2. Only train and buses to work, unless I'm late.
3. Bring home food to work, even if it's just biscuits or fruits.
4. Do more night shifts.
5. Take only buses home, even if I'm exhausted. Even better have someone with transport to fetch me home.
6. Go straight home, no detour, no acting on impulses. Unless I'm going out with someone.
GOING OUT.1. Leave NETS at home, only the $100 cash or whatever's left in the wallet.
2. Spend only on necessary things and only for the main purposes of going out. If it's dinner, only spend on food. If it's ice-skating, only spend on the rental skates. If it's movie, only spend on the movie ticket.
3. Eat before going out. If I have to, eat something cheap when outside.
4. Take trains and buses, even if it means I'll probably get lost, which I won't because I have my handphone and I'll even check how to get to my destination on the internet before going out. NO CABS.
5. Ignore all temptations caused by window shopping or smelling good food.
HOME.1. Stay at home.
2. No surfing on sites that allows online shopping.
MISC.1. Leave NETS at home.
2. Borrow books. No renting at EMF or buying at Popular/MPH/Kinokuniya.
3. Ask mom to purchase shampoo/conditioner/soap.
IGNORE ALL TEMPTATIONS THAT LEADS TO EMPTYING OF WALLET.
I don't know how long I'm going to do this. Probably until the end of the year since I'm thinking of going to England in December. Not yet confirmed, but maybe from 14th till 19th. I'm sure my mom will help out with some of the cost. Still.
Each day, my motivation for saving is going to be the trip to England. So, yea. I have to do it.
In my own world,
