Broke

I am broke, totally.

Sitting on bed, with all my bank cards in front, adding them together, I am sadly confronted with a reality that I would never want to have anything to do with??I am totally, definitely, abso-fucking-lutely broke.

How could I end up like this without awareness!

Freezing all my money for the visa, making the rest barely enough for the plane tickets, was Stupid No.1.
Following friends’ idea to take wedding pictures at this critical time, was Stupid No.2;
Not staying rational enough to resist those beautiful pictures, overtaking double of the amount I should have had, upgrading the picture frames to the most expensive type, hence the consequence of almost tripled budget, was certainly Stupid No.3, No.4 and No.5.
Useless shopping, restaurants, parties, taxies……No.6, 7,8…..

On average I do one stupid thing every month, as far as I am aware of.
In glorious May, I successfully broke my record. Bravo!!

I normally use “I am a woman, and all women are irrational” as the excuse to forgive myself.
And it’s never failed

What’s been done has been done, I need to look forward.
Therefore, It’s not too late to make new plan with tight budgets:
1, Hold my bladder and use the restroom when I get to the office, save 10 kuai for water, 20 kuai for toilet paper.
2, Stop using the treadmill, one stone killing two birds. Not only save the power for treadmill, but also save power for air con, say 100 a month.
3, Staying home all the time, and whoever wants to see me can taxi to lovely Zhudi Town, they will be more than welcome. So 500 kuai taxi fee saved.
4, Definitely no more restaurants. I will prepare meal every day, and prove that I can be a good wife too. Will make nothing but salad, by which means I will save 100 for gas 1000 for restaurants.
5, I understand as a good wife, I should make the food more optional, so besides salad, we will eat ice creams, fruit, and yogurt, but not rice. Say 0.5 kuai a bowl, so can save 30 kuai a month

Above are what my economical brain can think of, so far I can save about 1800 a month.

I will keep thinking, sure smart Grace can think of more than that.
