Is my lifestyle extravagant? (A.K.A Handphone Saga)
Just now sister kless prayed for me that i'll be a better steward of my money. I also pray that God will help me to manage my money better and also i pray that people around me will not think that i lead a very extravagant lifestyle.
there are many things i need to clarify and ofcos there is no need for that seriously, but i have to be accountable to God eventually, and ofcos those who are very concern about it (to those who kept asking me on my lifestyle yet did not receive an answer, here it goes!).
recently i bought a new handphone and this sparked off a lot of commotion about me changing phones frequently. as what i told sabie, everyone has a soft spot for things, just happened that mine is handphones (you might say "yeah you have a softspot for eveything!" which is NOT TRUE). back to the handphone situation...its not as expensive as you think and how come people dun comment on those who spent hundreds on on hair treatment or holiday trip? i admit changing this current phone in 3 months is too unrealistic but com'on, the old one is giving me too much problem and wasting a lot of my time reaching all the functions, so i dun see why i should bear with it until my so call contract is over.
another thing is me and my clothes. some people commented that i wear nice clothes and they are always different means i am extravagant. my students will definitely not think so because they see me everyday and i do repeat my closet! some of the current clothes are there since so long ago! i am very particular about looking good, looking great at all times. i love clothes and shoes but i dun buy them every day, every week or even every month! observe me and you'll get what i mean.
most of my spendings goes to food and NTUC, such are things no one knows! i love making cards and do you know that the materials are really expensive? i love making potted plants and do you know that it cost me $50 on the plants which i made to give relatives? i enjoy doing those things and they are hobbies to me and i bless people with that. dun know that right?!
ok i am not at all upset and please don't take this too personal. take it as a way to know me better if it helps. dun judge me by my outlook. my eldest brother carries a plastic bag (bags dun appeal to him but it certainly does to others!) to work but everytime he buys a guitar, thousands are gone. what does that make? its his passion and i respect that!
In case you are one who think my lifestyle is extravagant, i hope this blog changes your mind. else its really ok.
