  • I'm kind of the same, I hate how alot of the things I own aren't new like everyone elses I know. I'm also graduating college/university soon (The main reason why I'm always so broke) And I feel like life isn't going to begin until I get my higher paying job and catch up a little. Just have some patience. Some people just think the way we do :) I don't want people to see where I live either cause it's pretty poor looking. I also insist that i'm financially stable and own my own home before I have children so they live better than I did. Planning ahead I guess lol I hate having to work for most things I get in life, but it's better than some people who give up and resort to spending the rest of their pay cheques on drugs..

    • That's so true but we are the ones who appreciate everything we own. For my case, I cannot stand to lose anything because I've grown use to it and it becomes sentimental to me, like a worn out school bag. Most people see a tear, they toss it out. I repair it. :] Or sneakers, I make sure they've serve me well hahaha. Also I don't waste anything and eat all my food or else save it for later, it drives me nuts when I see people toss something out because they're "full". Rich bums!!! :P
