Easy money

Okie, this is me and my cussie Joyce @ MOS last friday.

Fucking good dancer she is. I've never danced sooooo hard in my life.

Gotten myself blisters on my feet. And also thanks to the new shoes that contributed to it.

Smart of her to wear flats!!!! 

But she's tall, what to do?

Anyone taller than me i consider them tall. Haha.

Anyway, i didn't expect asking for money would be this easy!

When the people I'm asking from is my parents.

Honestly! I've been worrying about the $$$ that i need for my Australia trip and also pondering on how to actually ask for it. From my parents

After all, i am the one who told them that they will pay for the trip, and i will come up with the money that i need for spending.

So a week ago, i was like, I'm sooooooo doomed. Because it's lesser than a month to the trip and i have saved nothing for it! How typical of me. Anyway, yes, so i set my heart on asking them for some reinforcements, sponsorship, whatever u call it.

The question was, how to ask from them?

Just yesterday i did it!

Was on my dad's car, then i went like, "Father, can u sponsor me $400 for the australia trip?"

He was like, "Why? $400? "

I said, "Yup, because the whole trip's money is only inclusive of our breakfast. The rest we need to spend using our shopping money. So u're giving me the money for food. "

He's like, "Okay la, will give you when it's nearer to the trip. "

I expected him to ask me if i saved up for it too, and to let him think about it. Instead he went right into agreeing and allowing it.

Of course i am telling a big fat lie here.

The total amount needed for food, as calculated conservatively by the tour guide, is only SGD200 the most. 

I just want more $$$  for shopping.

And also, how can SGD400 be enough? For my insatiable appetite for shopping?

I am putting in SGD300 on my own. (imagine, if i don't ask for help from my dad, how little i will have to spend. =(. But he gave me! Giving me. =) Yay!  )

Also, SGD700 is very lil for my shopping expenses.

Say the rate is 1:1.3, SGD700 will only be AUD538.

So little! And we have to spend like AUD100 on food, leaving me with only AUD438 to survive for shopping? 

For a shopaholic like me??????? 

Fret not, i told myself.

Now is the time when mothers play a role. In finance matters.

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

So on the same day, yesterday, i asked from my mum. Again, the difficulty level of it shocked me.

"Mother, can you sponsor me $200 for my australia trip?"

Mother: "I sponsor u ah? Ok la, when u need it? Are u gonna do an exchange soon?"

Me: "Oh no la, not yet. Father will check out the exchange rates for me, then i will ask him to change. You can give me next week, nearer to the date. "

Then she went on and on about how i should take care of myself and that i shouldn't bath too late and sleep with wet hair...............................................

But well, i guess for the $$$, it's worth listening to her always repeating itself talk.

So now i got myself AUD700 to spend!

Well AUD600, minus the food part.

Asking for money has never been easier!
