balancing the books
Its the 2nd of the month. Im doing my maths, or rather accounts. Somethings are just not tallying up. Heh. The last time I remember splurging like this was way back in May. November is another month that I have chalked up the digits near the red. Thank God for a fat paycheck. Thank God for the dream creator company. Thank God that I have a few pockets of "small" reserves. I glanced back at the figures and it really goes Woah!
November really is the month that the pendulum was swinging. It was swinging wildly just to bring me back to my feet again. =)
Lets now populate the numbers.
A brand new Nokia N73. No contract okay. Just the phone. Cause remember my lil mishap of 17 May with the dropped handphone on TPE. Heh. Oh wells. The handphone alone cost around $800.
Brand new legs for 'Rose no.2' Heh. Well new tyres for her to be precise. I got'em changed before the KL trip. Wouldnt want her to stop 'running half way tru th trip right ? Anyway she deserves it. After 5 sessions of Pasir Gudang burning her rubber and nearly 10 months of riding, a new set of wheels is what all she deserves. I got her the latest 2 compound tyres from Michelin. Suitable for road handling as well as track use. Its also easily controllable in road wet weather use. Heh. The Michelin Power 2CT tyres cost me more then $400.
My Kuala Lumpur trip. It was fun never the less but it certainly made me feel the pinch. Heh. Spent a total of around $400. Inclusive of hotel, bike petrol, shopping and miscellaneous. & I still had nearly RM200 in my wallet back in Singapore.
& if you all thought that it was over...
The immediate day after KL, I was out with the boys searching for that elusive piece of 2nd skin for the track. I had sold off my last suit cause it was a 2 piece set. 1 reason being I wanted to try a 1 piece, another was because I had already crashed in that 2 piece. Haha. Nak buang suay la katakan. So we scouted around...
Next thing I remember, haha, I am home with a 1 piece clover suit. Fully equipped with inner liner and back protector as well. Woah. What a rush. Luckily I didnt go for the 2k spidi kangaroo leather suit. Damn. Haha. Coolness spent at 1.2K.
Thats the major spending of November. Ish ish ish.
So now, Im just doing my accounts. I think I need to hire a personal accountant to do up my acconts proper. Anyone out there ? Heh.
With my limited accounting knowledge ( all 3 months of it in OI), think I have to really tie up my tummy for the whole of December and really work my ass off till the end of the year. I did say I wanted to lose off those excess lontong and rendang weights. Hehe ;) well this is my solution since Im very very near the red.
Ahhh...I need a sugar mummy. Heeeeeeeeee ;)
