once in a while or oftenly, it's good to be reminded that i have to control my spendings. because it's like you know that you have to, you know that its a must. yet at times, i will just go ahead with it. no one knows when will those rainy days come and it's always better to have extra cash with you. forgo those material needs when you already have the basics, isn't it good enough already?
be contented. be contented with what you already have and not ask for more unnessecary ones.
i know saving up is important. and i shall see that my bank balance increase to a minimal amount of $XXX.
desires, wants, NEEDS! i don't need alot of things right now.. come to think of it, i have very good self-control when i was in sec sch. i did always restrict myself when it comes to buying stuff and food. and i can do the same now. humans are not judged in terms of possessions. it's what you make out of what you have. i feel ashame of myself at times. ashame that i still could act and think maturely at this age. i'm turning 18. yet, i still have to be reminded of this.

science UT4 tml. saw a dress at details and it looked so pretty. but i'll give it some thought cos i don't need it. might as well save up till quite a sum first then make one or 2 purchases. but of course, only when i have the extra extra extra cash for it.
the overseas trip is triggering my excitement. but of course, let's get done with the canoeing marathon which falls on the 27 jan. the journey ain't going to be easy at all. yet, being able to go down in doubles is a bliss. the front paddler knows that no matter what, she can't give up as she has to lead on the back paddler and set down what she wants the back paddler to do. the back paddler has got the front paddler and no matter what she can't stop as the back paddler has to follow and aid the front paddler to acheive speed and motivate the front paddler and constantly remind her. being there for one another, supporting each other throughout the whole distance and having the mindset "for you,i will..", is good enough.
i have neglected much, with my busy schedule.
acheiving balance? i'll try.
au voirs!
