bimbo? 貧乏!

amazingly, bimbo doesn't mean dumb-ass pretty-lass in Japan. At least not when you say it. Bimbo, or more accurately bimbou (びんぼう or 貧乏, pronounced the same way though) just means poor. yeah, so you can say i am a bimbou in Japan.

after my spending spree in Feb, I thought I ought to curb my spending this month. But guess what? For the first eight days of March, I have already managed to spend over 50k yen (780SGD)... omg... i gotta do something!!! 止める!!

my mate siownan is still on medical leave due to dislocation of his arm sustained during snowboarding... hmmm.... wonder which is worse, at dorm resting with dislocated arm, or well at work?

darn!! i'm not supposed to talk about work anymore! darn darn darn! :p

I thought u keep a record of ur spending? Anyway, try to think twice b4 spending a bit ... but if you think it is really worth it because of experience or because it is really necessary, i think there is no need to feel bad about spending... afterall, money is used for spending.

amen to that!
although need to save money, but i also feel since i am in japan, i should make the most out of my stay here... so spending money when necessary IS necessary =)
