Money

*Sigh.........................................*Just survived 3 very stressful and hectic weeks. Now really emotionally and psychologically drained. And the seniors tell us that Ausmat year 11 is easy! Does that mean next year is going to be worse? No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But never mind. Let's not think about that 1st. I need to enjoy myself in the next few days (coz final exam is after Hari Raya - need to study next week :-( ) Which is why i'm going to McDonald's with my friends tonight to celebrate Audrey's birthday! And we're going to have the absurdly expensive RM 18 Hari Raya buffet!
Actually, food around here can be quite costly. RM 3 for a plate of maggi goreng, RM3-5 for fried rice(depending on type), and RM4.50 for a murtabak in a mamak restaurant. Food in the hostel's cafe are cheap, but not good...
It's not only food that's expensive around here. The prices of the books that we have to use are simply ridiculous. There's a book about writing and grammar that costs RM60. Then there's Insights Into IELTS(RM40), Innovation, a book that's supposed to teach us listening and speaking in English(RM40), Chemistry textbook titled The Essential(RM98), and Chem work book(forgot how much, but not cheap either).Luckily, the Chem books can be photostated. The 3 useless English books are compulsary to buy.
Next week, we have to buy a RM410 graphic calculator...
And we haven't received even 1 cent of Jpa money yet......................................
