RM7000+-

RM7000+- that the amount of money we had spent in Malaysia on our trip back 2 weeks ago. We were there for just 3 wonderful, enjoying and fruitful weeks. If I still remember one of my dear friend also said she spent that much when she n her family went home for holiday.

Now I realized that living in Malaysia is freaking expensive!! Well, leaving as freely as I want I mean. Spending without thinking much. Buying foods like everyday. I never cook when I was in Malaysia. Holiday mood, mana bleh masak hehe (alasan semata-mata)

This is the first time I ever keep track on my spending in Malaysia. B4 I always thought that Malaysia cheap so it is ok to spend a little bit more that in Japan. But now, everything is so different.

This also make me n hubby realized that we seriously need to earn at least 10K to live in Malaysia comfortably. If hubby graduate with a PhD he will get at least 7K. I need to work too la kan. Maybe not in the beginning. I will have everything settle down first b4 starting to work.

So the moral of the story.....

FARAH get your hand moving and start being serious with your PhD work!!!!


P/S: Has not been writing for some times..... Just releasing some stress after soo many things to do hehehe No hard feeling ;-P

Nothing is cheap here! nak kencing pon kena bayaq. dah la toilet cam hapatah (except the KLCC RM2 one)

U may only get a small house with RM250k. Jangan tak tau...sumer kena tax! tax! tax!

Kat kl nih koman2 rumah mau stgh juta. Mau sampai mati la x habih bayaq kalo nk beli landed house. Diaper pon mahai kt sinin. Tu x kira baby formula lagik.

Nanti nak balik mai sini angkut siap2 barang penuh kontena. Even periuk belanga pon sangat la mahalnyer
