Living a frugal life means avoiding any luxuries in life.  One of which is avoid riding a taxi or cab going to work.  This means I will have to leave my house an hour before my shift so that I won’t be late even if I am just 15 minutes away from work.  Why?  Because I will have to wait for a jeepney that will pass by my work place.  Easy?  Of course not!  For aside from dealing with occassional perverts and people who seem to avoid taking a bath and enjoy letting people smell their smelly bodies, I will have to make out the signs for the route of the jeepneys.  And with a 100/125 error in refraction, it is not an easy task.  So I was really excited when Zenni Optical was on Fox news! Imagine a Zenni Optical $8 Rx eyeglasses…  8 freaking dollars will really fit into my budget!   I could probably even afford the incredible stylish new frames from Zenni which you will see on their site because their eyeglasses are so cheap!  So why was I excited, it’s because they now ship eyeglasses from the US however, I will have to be careful if I place an order so that I will get the right pair for myself.

More bad news…

My mom called me up yesterday and she told me that she went to see a doctor back home and was told that she needs to take certain medications for her lungs.  Although, some people doesn’t notice it and she doesn’t complain much, I know deep down there something’s not right.  My mom always try to be a strong woman and that’s how our family look at her so when she says she okay, our family believes her.  And so I am worried right now, for whenever I asked her to see a doctor she will always say no.  But all of a sudden she called me up to tell me that she had an appointment with a doctor.  Although, there might not be any reason for me to worry, it might just be some minor illness, I am still worried.  I hope I get extra cash soon so that I can go home and see what’s really going on and talk to her in person.  Because she likes hiding things when I speak to her on the phone and is good at pretending that everything is okay.
