Stretching My Dollar

Life this days can get really tight if you do not save for rainy days. Now, i'm embarking into a new journey on learning how to save and stretching each and every of my dollar. How does a young adult at 21 usually spend his money. Let's find out more... Being independent ever since the age of 19, it is therefore important to keep up with good habits, as you step further into life you will learn how. So how do we stretch a dollar in our everyday lives..? All of us need our daily basic three meals everyday without fail. Let's begin on shopping for food. Foodcourts/Restaurants/Fast Foods most of us assumes its unhealthy but we do still eat once in a while. Its really not worth it to eat outside, and I'm going to teach you how to enjoy a friendly and yet balanced diet. In the supermarkets, look out for cheap bargains. Bean Sprouts are usually the cheapest source of vegetables if you love eating them and the cheapest price you can find at Giant. Next source of vegetables, you can easily pick up any leafy ones like Puay Leng or Xiao Bai Cai.. carrots are also a bonus of mantaining your great eyesight. These are the few cheap and worth it vegetables available in every supermarket. Next it comes to meat, chicken you should get in the morning or early afternoon. Its still fresh and you could cook up a whole chicken with carrots soup. sounds delicious. As we are asians, we need our daily rice as part of our carbohydrate intake. simple and nice meal.. most importantly its not difficult to cook. Don't bother your family members, just do what you like and you will have a satisfied meal ready. And buying all these ingredients costs you less than $1 on each and every meal a day. And remember do not add so much oil to your cooking..

New Term Begins

today is the last day of my Industrial Training Programme. quite a nightmare for me actually, getting into an engineering course is really easy, but working as an engineer is not a really a cool thing after all. It had been 6 whole long weeks for me at Flexlink Engineers Pte Ltd which includes my one week of MC. The journey from the first day till today had been really tiring and somehow I also managed to gain some experiences through the projects and assignments with the company. I had a rather nice boss at work, although its a small shophouse sized office but its more than enough space for five people to work. Getting up early and travelling from Woodlands to Eunos will be history after today. Hope to pass my ITP as my assignment actually turn out to be a mess. 19th April 2010, school begins, a brand new semester awaits for me. Back to school..
