finally, the semester has ended.. phew..but the relief is somewhat temporary until the exam result is out and i know, i have to prepare myself for the last paper, the retailing paper was not that promising to me..
and i fear what i fear the most is gonna happen. naudzubillahmindzalik.
oh. i have a little bit of something to blab.hahaha.about my financial status.
muahahaha..
they say, well, most people agree that if they are entitled to get scholarship, then their life would be better than just relying 100% on Ptptn.
well, they are right actually, but its just that when the person is not wise enough in managing the money, thats such a waste, like what happened to me.
hahaha. praise be to Him, Alhamdulillah, i got scholarship from one entity, and i get about 4+++ per sem. last semester was the first semester for the scholarship duration, so i got the 'tunggakan' for the 3rd sem and it was 8+++ lump sum! and plus, there was another 3+++ from ptptn since i didnt cancel it yet as i got to know that i got the scholarship quite late.so can u imagine i have about 11+++ in my pocket???
i was crazy too, seriously, and of course, the money was spent to pay my debt to my bro, my father, my mom, and some amount was given away as one small gift from me to my parents, and i spared about 2500 in TH for my driving license, and i spent nearly 2000, not more than that for the SOLO-JOGJAKARTA trip and i didnt regret that since the trip was awesome!
and where was the rest of my money? o dear. lend it a few people for they need it more than me, invest it in some kind of, i dont know, company investment or something and it was my dad's idea and now, i'm crazily looking forward to get that money back! and the rest, was spent in my daily provision.
i'm a big spender for ur information, but i dont spend on clothes and handphones and all those things as much as girls normally do.
i eat a lot and i like, in fact i LOVE to buy things that are not really necessary like, erm, i dont know, small things that when u come to realize it, ur money is all gone.hahahaha.
that happened to me, many times of course.
and so, luckily i've already allocated and safely put away small amount of money as my saving, so-called saving in TH and i survived with that money during last sem holiday and also for the car license. i couldnt use my mum's money as i'm a girl and in my family, its not really a priority for girls to have car license so my mum financed only my bros, and i dont blame her coz i know her financial is tight too, and i'm thankful that since i got into u, i dont have to ask her for money anymore since i have my own financial source and i have to make do with everything i have. even if i have to ask for money, its considered debt. i will pay them back when i have the money and thats how it goes since i started my degree.
i dont know. money could come easily to me but they will go away very fast too. i'm officially broke now as my money had to go to the workshop to repair my fren's car that i crashed and it cost me a lot. so, i've no money plus i had to keep the news away from my mum or else, i will never got to see the carkey again, for the rest of my life. so, how do i survived?
with any amount i got, the duit raya i got from my wealthy aunts and grandparents, and i borrowed from my bros, i'm grateful they have money to help me since i have no other person to turn to since i cant go to my parents coz it'll be suicidal like i said just now.
and now, i'm currently relying on my bros MARA, hahaha, what a loser i am..
few weeks before, i posted a status on FB announcing humourously that i'm officially broke. hahaha.
many friends responded to my status, one offering money to lend but i politely refused since i have my bro and i've had enough borrowing, but this one guy whom i met merely in FB, asked whether RM50 is enough.
i said, if it's free then why not?
he replied that he is actually looking for translators for some tasks that he was currently doing and i said, i can be his translator.
i actually did translation before when i was in sem 2 for my friends, and thats their assignments actually, and each gave me 10 rgt and i earned about 40 rgt if i'm not mistaken.
so, that guy and i further negotiated via email and i did one translation as a sample, and he agreed to give my 50 rgt for 7 translation tasks. i of course disagreed since the task he gave me was not of my field, it was business-based and for one paper only, i had gone through quite significant issues to translate them perfectly, and i did my best.
then, we agreed that he would take a look at my work first before we get into the deal, and so i finished the first task and emailed him back.
i waited and waited and until now, this very moment, he didnt reply me. i was thinking, why? but i have learned that this is just normal and i bet he wanted to back off from the deal for maybe he had found another suitable and credible person to do the translation since i'm only merely a first degree english student, so, he was not satisfied with my job.
so, i let it go as for me, the money, of course it's something important and i needed the money very much but when i came to think about it, maybe its not my time. Allah knows better for anything that happens, right?
so, i live my life as usual and i didnt even get a news from the guy, and one fine day, a friend called, a classmate actually.
the very first thing he said when i answered the call, "financial ko ok x?"
i was, well, shocked and taken aback, and i felt like laughing out loud coz of course they know i'm broke!
i said, "yeah, why?"
"ko nak duit x?"
"nakla, pesal?"
"tlg buat dr O aku. aku bg kau 50."
"okkk........"
hahahaha.this friend actually has to repeat one paper and it was multimedia and he knows i'm one goddess of it. hahaha. (self-flattering session, ok??)
so, he had to submit this thing tomorrow and he called me this afternoon. i told him to come by the hostel right away and we'll have to sit down to get the right design for him before i deal with the scripting and so on.
of course i accepted his offer bcoz i need the money, and i love the multimedia job very much, so its not a big deal for me at all.(though my exam would actually take place just a few days after that).
so, i did his assignment and he paid one happy 50 rgt. hahaha. but unfortunately, turned out i didnt complete the task well because i missed out something without realizing it and i feel bad for he didnt want to take back the money even a portion of it though he knew about my mistake. :(
so, i moved on and another one fine day, a senior called and asked if i could do her research abstract translation and i said yes. i did it and she paid me 4 rgt. hahaha. she said thats for my lunch. and then, another senior asked if i could do something for her and she would pay me and i said of course i will.
and so there i was, listening to dr Fadzilah Kamsah's motivational cds for couples and writing down the speech script simultaneously and i got another 50 rgt.
hahahaha..
and the last one, yesterday, again, i translated another senior's abstract and she paid me 10 rgt and thats a lot for only a half page translation but i thanked her very much. but that money of course, like i said just now, didnt stay long with me as when i went to the office to do the clearance, i had to pay 10 rgt for the missing Keluar Masuk card (which i get every sem but never been used since i was in law in 2006) and Activity card, 5 rgt each. sigh.. what a waste but i've got no choice.
i was turned down a chance to get money but yet, i didnt complain and i'm thankful i did that since i got many other money offers after that. hahaha.
whatever it is, Alhamdulillah, Thank u Allah for the air we breathe, for the land we walk, for the food we eat, and for the lives we live.
syukur....
p/s: dpt duit bnyk tp mcm biasa, entah ke mana laa semua tu...haish...
