Timing - 12:00 AM
A sudden urge to write something before I sleep. It's been a while since I last pen down my thoughts.
Time flies, I've been into this job for about 3 mths now, in another 11 days, my probation period will be over and I can start to enjoy benefits such as leave and mc. Upon accepting this job, more responsibilties have been placed on me within the family. I'm expected to contribute to the house right now. I do feel happy that I'm able to do something for the family right now tho the amount I contribute wasn't a big sum taking into account that I'm only taking home like 1.5k per mth. After deducting payments such as My poly school fees, My army insurance, 家用, My daily meals(include dinner for My Mum almost every weekday), transport fee and I'm pretty much left with a small sum of money to spend on myself. And not to forget, my mum expects me to save a sum of money every mth which I totally agree too. I'm not complaining but it just doesn't seems right that my mum was saying that I anyhow spend my money when I told her I was heading out to buy stuffs before returning home. Was pretty pissed off by her words and kinda ignored her for the past few days. And she just drop an obvious hint that I'm supposed to help with the installments of the new air con which is about 78 per mth. Add that to my list, I will find it harder and harder to save some money every month. She's been nagging for me to get new shoes, new pants and new wallet ever Since I got my first pay cheque. What she didn't realized is that If I were to splurge on those items, I wouldn't have any savings left. And not to mention that she wanted me to get stuffs for my dad too. Yes I'm more than willingly to get it for him If it's in the past but not after I know What's he doing outside. I can't stand him insisting that what he did was right, hanging out with a woman when u have a family at home. So is this what u expect me to follow when I have my own family in future. I would gladly take care of my mum If they were to get a divorce but it Seems my Mum is trying so hard to make things work. This whole issue is pretty much getting on my nerves and it didn't help that I'm getting a lot of shit from the tenants at work. It Seems like nothing is right for me at the moment. I'm glad that I've got an awesome group of friends who is always there tho I don't speak much of my family issues to them But well time spent with them pretty much helped me stopped thinking about those issues at home.
Alright I should stop now as it's almost midnight right now..
PS: I'm not complaining but that doesn't mean I'm having an easy time
