Living on a budget







It is easy to underestimate the life that you have until you don't...
I have now been living in another country for 6 months for getting a masters degree, and although education has always been such a priority in my life, these 6 months have not been easy at all.
I am literally broke and haven't found a job yet. I guess it was easy for me getting a job in the U.S. because I either had a residency and later a citizenship. And now, I have to look at what I eat, where I go and how much money I spend; whereas I didn't care much about expenses and savings before. I assume and keep telling myself that this change is for the best because when I come back to USA I will have a masters degree and administer better my economy.
Other than that today is such a gloomy day. It has been raining outside, though the weather is ok, not the typical American winter which is cold. It feels more like early spring here in Australia.
Of all the so many things that life can provide, one beauty is music.
My song for the day is "The Wolf" by Mumford and Sons...this song makes me want to start jumping and dancing hysterically.


After having critiqued them for their bit of change of music style, I recognize that Mumford and Sons still rock... Gosh I miss driving...there is nothing like blasting the best music in the car while driving in any kind of weather.
PS to myself : Still need to make banana bread and cinnamon apple muffins.
