The time of the month is near. I hate it when I experience PMS (Pre-Menstrual Syndrome). Although it is very rare that I have to browse online for acne treatments, I find it equally stressful to see pimples on my face or to have back pains and irritability for days on end. And so I just wish for it to come and be over with. And I am keeping my fingers crossed it comes soon. JC will be here next week. LOL. *wink*
It’s only DAYS that I’m counting before JC’s arrival here in Zamboanga City. I can’t wait! I am a little sad though, since I tried several diets that work but I wasn’t able to maintain it over the past few weeks. I was eating non-stop because I had to keep up with the load of work I have, and unfortunately for me, what used to be a drastic drop in weight now looks just like a few pounds off my original weight. But, I still look forward to the BIG DAY. Only 6 days more to go! I am super duper happy and excited!
In about 2 weeks, JC and I will be moving to our own place. No more in laws for both of us, and I’m sure that will really help us take this relationship to a whole new level. But our finances are going to a whole new level as well. Even before moving in, there’s a lot of expenses to take care of, such as the deposit and advance, furniture, appliances, linens, kitchenware and such. It helped a lot that my mom gave us the king sized bed, and a few other stuff we’ll need. But this is one time that I suddenly miss working for a company.
When I was employed, I had a lot of benefits I enjoyed which included additional allowances, discount coupons, and even cash advances. The company provided cash advance for those who are suddenly in need of money in cases of emergencies, disasters, or illnesses in the family. This is a big help for employees especially for those who are breadwinners or those who are married and have kids. Needs arise in unexpected times, and we can’t expect to always have a huge savings to back us up,. Which is why it is good to be able to get a cash advance from the company when the situation calls for it. In my experience with my previous employer, I was able to take out a month’s salary in advance, and it was deducted from my salary little by little each month. What makes it really cool is there is no interest. Unlike borrowing from the bank or from someone else, I pay it back in installment and there isn’t any interest added to the amount.
