money, money, money
Money and me do not get along very well. Our relationship has always been ok but over the last year, I have noticed some dark patches. Whenever I finally seem to get it, I spend it. All the hard work I seem to put in, gone in the blink of an eye. Oh money, money, money, why cant we be friends?
I have always been a person who has to buy most things themselves as my parents believe that it teaches me to learn the value of things and blah, blah, blah. So whenever my friends get really cool things I ask them the question "did you buy it yourself?" and most of the time they answer no and I get really jealous and wish that their parents were mine. And you know what really makes me angry about people who's parents buy them everything? They always seem to have lots of money and brag about it because they never have to buy anything! Then they go on about how they really want something but their parents went buy it for them and the whole time in my head I'm just like "you have enough money juts buy it yourself!" ugh, so annoying.
My relationship with money goes in a cycle:
1- earn money and be really happy
2- realise that I am rich and can go and spend earned money on things that I want
3- spend all of my money and moan about how poor I am.
You see, I have no money but I have cool stuff.
Only once in my life I have ever saved up a substantial amount which was when I bought my MacBook Pro. Those months of saving were the hardest in my life. I would walk past store windows and just stare at all the the beautiful things that I could buy. But there was that little voice inside my head that kept me through the tough times and here I am typing away. I guess that moment of saving up gives me some hope with my relationship with money in the future?
One day I know that I will be rich and still spend my money on things that I want but that day is very, very far away. For the moment, money and I will just say hi and bye and pass each other in the hall.
xoxo,
