As I touch down in college I always think positive in any aspect that I can be independent, I can do things with my own, but I realize it’s not that easy.
As we all know college living is an exciting and challenging undertaking for us as a student. Moving away from our mom and dad, living on our own (or with a roommate), making decisions for our self and having to manage our own finances.
To tell you the truth, being a college student is very hard for me specially my parents are not that rich that can easily provide my daily needs specially in my studies tuition fee.
Did you experience from out of budget? Hahahah to tell you the truth I am.
Starting my first in college I have a lot of adjustment. From travelling to school alone and most importantly, budgeting my allowance for a week. Since I am an engineering student it will be expected that I need to have an extra/pocket money because of some paper works that need to comply and it cost money of course.
So, I have done things to have a personal or pocket money that might be used in case of having projects and with that i will not ask money from my parents. I keep/store my money in a piggy bank . I sacrificed things, for not eating snacks and went shopping with friends. But still it is not enough :(
Since one day, someone introduced me about @Steemit. At first I am not convinced to join because I thought its a scam and it just a waste of time so I decided not to. But as days passed I am so down because when my payment slip was released my tuition fee is very big and my parents can't pay that all in this end of semester. So I need to find ways and the one thing I thought is to join @steemit. Then, I started to post something and I never expect that it will be good.
Joining @steemit gives me a lot of opportunities, it serve us my instrument to help my parents to support my daily needs in school. Even though it is not that big enough but It lessen my burden to pay my bills.
