Gotta stop waiting for the moolah to fall from the sky.
The most absurd thing I heard of regarding things that fall from the sky is fishes, frogs. If I didn't remember wrongly, that was part of some myths depicted in one of my Primary school Pets' Coursebook. It's a bit dumb why they name it Pets' Coursebook anyway. But I admit to enjoy finding the mini 'rabbits' and 'squirrels' on the pages. Haha.
Ok, before I digress further, my point is, *refer to the title*. Yeah, though it is just a figure of speech. In Chinese, there's a saying called 守株待兔, if you understand what it means. Seriously, my income flow now fluctuates quite a bit. There were times when I were so broke I thought Richie Rich should have laughed at my plight. At other times, I could still get by.
Other than the rising petrol fee, I don't think I spend lavishly. I think I spend quite a bit on food though. Good food. And of course, books, cds, and occasional movie treats. I remember how fascinating it had been during my NS days where I nearly spent all my monthly allowances even though there's only 2 days off each week. So, on a regular month, 8 days can cost me more that $550. Nowadays, I don't find myself spending that much. Ironic huh?
Still, I don't think I can go on like this without a full-time job, no matter how much I detest having a 9-5 kind of job. My other internet marketing job is more like some sort of business, except, I am running this business for another business - my company. I am still waiting VERY patiently for my clients to proceed with the deals. And if all go well, I'll have a new wave of confidence.
Nevertheless, reality strikes in. The exam period is going to end soon for my tutees. Will that mean a slow-down in my income? Gosh. That better not happen. And if that do happen, I think I need to utilise my piggy bank soon.
And the next absurd thing I would wish to happen is for moolah to fall from the sky. Except this time, I will not find it absurd.
