The economy is getting worse each day. By the time i grad, i think the economy will be even worse. i should have taken a 3-year-course and grad by this year. if i were to take a 3-year-course, i would have secured myself a good job now. why on earth i go and study chemical engineering, stupid me. i still can complain even i'm on the edge of completing the course, stupid me. ok, enough with the complaining.

since the prices of all good hike up, and my income, which is ptptn loan given to me each semester still remain the same, i really need to cut down on my expenses. luckily the petrol price is slurping down, i mean decreasing, it's a big help of hand in this period of economy downturn *4 thumbs up (including the 2 on my feet)*
i have thought of some useful ways to cut down on everything i can cut down.

1. cut down on my food.
my main food will be oat and wholemeal bread from now on. goodbye to rice. don't pity me, i like eating oat and wholemeal bread. plus, the rice i can get here is white rice. my mom has cultivated healthy lifestyle for quite some time. the whole family has been eating brown rice and i'm not so into white rice anymore. so, take the advantage from this economy downturn and cultivate healthy lifestyle so that you can live a longer life. ps: live long enough to meet another economy downturn :D

2. cut down on toiletries.
normally the amount of shampoo i use is about the size of a 20 cents. now i cut it down to 10 cents. while the amount of body shampoo i use is about the size of a 50 cents(X2). now i cut it down to 50 cents(X1). cut down on toothpaste from the length of the brush to half the length of the brush. turn off water pipe while soaping.

3. cut down on electricity.
put lappie on standby mode when i go to bath or to store, if i don't wana shut it down. turn off fan and light when i'm not using it.

4. cut down on petrol.
i try to avoid travelling unnecessarily. stay at home and read books better la. my wallet will go thin whenever i step out of the house. sigh...i'm a very broke student.

i want to clarify something. i'm saving not being stingy :D
enough with the cutting down, or else, i will end up cutting myself into half.
