biking with the wind blowing me...

yeah, hoping that my mind makes some sense in writing. my sense of black and white in matters relating to life and thoughts are becoming blurred - i hope not by the influence of new age but rather by the influence and my human understanding of the grace of God. i want these recordings to become a reminder of God's faithfulness in my golden days.
So, welcome my friend, let's learn together. I beckon you.

Financial Management

This weekend has been about work. In fact, I'm so dazed that as I type this, I am yawning away. I still have some house work to do though. May I have an angel to help me to clear all these house work? I'm flattening out.

Bought a really decent and pretty skirt today. Happy with this purchase. A first purchase from my first month's paycheck. Now I have to get a nice top. Didn't have much money left, but today is the first time I stepped into a shopping mall since Malaysia was on sale for the past 1 month. So I pounced on the chance. Wait, more like 3rd time, and it was because of work this round. The last 2 I went with my family and friends.

Managing finances has never really been a problem, until now, when I have to start paying bills. Thank God for my parents who taught us to manage our finances well, otherwise I think I'd be in a bigger trouble. I can still afford a little luxury here and there with my small pay, but it does look pretty bad when I don't have anything left at the end of the day to save. It's a habit, in my genes, to save every month. Things are so tight I am glad I actually pulled through last month. So glad I didn't need to ask more money from my parents. It would be so embarassing since I have started earning my own income.

Now it is to pray that God would teach me how to take care of the car that He has entrusted me with, because I surely have no extra income to pay for repairs and maintenance at this point. Extend/expand my income Lord!

Nite nite people.


learning,
gracey
