budget woes.... budget woes...

work.
*eyes glaze over*
work.
*eyes glaze over*

... explosives... clockwork fuzes... TNT... Trinitrotoluene... PTNC..

I think I'm going nuts...








.. sometimes.... everything counts for nothing anymore...

your life's achievements can break in a flash,
your bestest friend could become your archenemy overnight,
your greatest skill could become your stumbling stone...


.. one of my greatest weakness is my inability to keep contact with people... I may make impressions, I may make friends... but like a structurally unsound bottle, everything leaks away, slowly.. one by one... bit by bit..

and it doesn't help that my memory isn't good either..


I'm not your average guy.
I'm not even average-ly smart.

I can't remember what I ate for lunch, or what I did yesterday without trying hard.

But I know, that I'm not... normal...







... emoing...

i hardly blog nowadays, because I just come back home so tired... everyday...

and there are a few things I've gotta do this week...

1) Register for my driving license..

hmm.. I wonder if my mum will freak out if I choose to take a bike course instead...
oh.. wait. thats redundant. She will..
nevertheless... I'll try and get both license for driving a car AND a bike.

2) Start attending a night Japanese Class and get JLPT 1 from Febuary onwards, with funding from my dad.

For those who are staring at the above statement depreciatingly, I would like to inform you that my total usable monthly pocket money is currently $200 at most.
If YOU can survive on that, I'll eat my socks.

3) Go to the gym twice a week. If Monday, Wednesday and Friday aren't running days, go for a swim instead.

I need to keep myself fit. Coz I'm most likely not going to get a drop in my Pes status, and considering the options, I'll most likely stick with A for the time being. That being the case, I won't be able to get my 3SGT rank until I pass my IPPT twice.

sigh..

my breakdown in pocket money :
approx.
- Transport : $100
- Insurance (monthly) : $75+$12 = $87
- SAF Magazine : $4.50
- SAFRA Membership : $15
- Average Army Equipment Expenditure : $10

total : $217

Total allowance given : $400
Total gross (literally) allowance : $183

Meals consumed outside : (6 days x 4 weeks) x (approx $5) = $120
Sporting Expenses = (3 days x 4 weeks) x ($2.50) = $26
Health expenditure = $20

total misc expenditure : $166

Total gross allowance : $183
Total net allowance carried forward : $17


*vomits blood*

and I havn't even calculated my handphone bill, internet bill expenditures yet.

I'm still yet to get Nicholas a Christmas present, and I'm yet to return my elder brother quite a huge lump of money...


*cough*

sigh... =/

broke as broke can be.




Anywayz, my schedule for the next week's evenings is as follows.

Monday - Swim at CSC
Tuesday - Gym at 1-7 or CSC
Wednesday - Run
Thursday - Gym at CSC
Friday - Register for driving lessons at Bukit Batok Driving School
Sat - Band practice
Sun - REST (important)



sigh.. I hardly even have time for my dear...
but he has exams too...

arrrgh..


well... I have another exam tomorrow on....
(*looks around for SAF spies)

well.. I have another exam tomorrow on... the 101 uses of Giraffes.

ok.

yup.

*stares blankly*
*comatose*
