On spending

Tonight I shall write not the saddest lines, but only sad lines about my life.

I'll be writing how I'm such a BIG SPENDTHRIFT!!! Buy this, buy that, buy here and there and everywhere!!! Aaargh! I'm angry at myself for being like this, huhu. :( How can I be prudent when it comes to spending??? How can I curb my habit of spending too much like there's no tomorrow??? Oh Lord please help me!!!

I'm not rich. I don't have limitless supply of money. I should only buy what I NEED and NOT WHAT I WANT. I should develop a stronger sense of saving for the future and saving for a rainy day. I should think of long term investments that builds up my future rather than something that just caught my fancy and drains my money at hand, like accessories. Goodness how I love accessories! And clothes! And shoes!

TAMA NAAAA! Please! Lord, teach me how not to be a spendthrift. Teach me how to be prudent and practice self-control over material things. These things that I buy, they are just things that don't contribute any meaning in my life. Pampasikip lang sila ng bahay at ng cabinet. Please channel my spending spree in other matters, like finishing my thesis writing! And helping the poor!

Oh man I really should stop spending on nonsensical items. :(
