Hello, everyone.
I welcome you to my blog. For as long as you are still breathing as a human being, expenses can never stop coming your way. From the moment you wake up, it's expenses here and there, bills to settle; whether you wish for it or not, it's there and waiting for you. The annoying part of it is that the moment you settle on an outstanding one, another comes knocking. Sometimes I feel like, without money, you cannot be a student in my dear country. If you are not paying for this today, then you are paying for this and that tomorrow. Failure to pay bills today means you will pay them tomorrow.

Sometimes I just don't want to pick up my phone; from the moment I pick it up and unlock it, there must be a bill or two waiting to be settled. One of the most recurring expenses in the life of every individual is the money spent on food, but it's essential, which makes spending on it very necessary and less painful. But we still have some expenses that our lives revolve around, not like they are part of our essential needs, but the moment they're not available, we rush to buy them again.
There are so many unimportant things I find myself buying every now and then that sometimes it feels like I am under a spell. I might feel like I am doing the right thing until I am fine with the purchase, then I will start asking myself questions, more like after the purchase then the spell is broken 😂 There are so many recurring expenses in mylife,e but in subsequentparagraphs,s I will be sharing just two that are not really essential to humanlife,e but I find myself spending more on themthann I spend on essentialstuff.
This is topping the list of my recurring expenses after food, not because they are really essential but because the money spent on data monthly is sometimes more than the money I spend on food. Data might not be essential to life, but my everyday life revolves around data-consuming sites and platforms, which makes it impossible for me to stay without it.
No data means no hive for me. The other day I decided not to renew my data subscription, and it was at this moment that I realized my phone is useless without data. Network providers have seen that we really cannot do without data, so they started using it as an opportunity to milk us. Imagine doing a monthly subscription twice or three times in one month. We complain and grumble, but we still go ahead and make the purchase.
This is another recurring expense that takes place monthly but is not really necessary, and I still find myself doing it every month. Sometimes within the month I can decide not to renew; once it's month end, I forget about everything I said within the month and start looking for a way to renew, especially if I have a series I am seeing. This is what keeps me entertained when I am less busy, more like a companion since I hardly leave my room.
Thanks for reading my post.
