Cherryale..Im 25, hubby 24. He's a ST marine scholar so he's under bond until end of this year..that's why he plan to career switch, but teaching must start from bottom alrd. If he stays on in his current co. the prospects r good, he can be promoted next year, plus a pay increase, not much though, the most $100 plus..But his job very siong..works in a shipyard..they pay pretty well, he work less thna 2 years he earning ard slightly more than 2k. But he thinks teaching is more satisfying..SO well..I told him to pray n seek GOD b4 making decision.
Ah ger..Ya right..he must be more firm..but my MIL is not easy also..I also scared if mother n son not on good terms will affect my relationship w her, I see my MIL everyday since Im home.
Anyway, my hubby declared full status of 'housewife' on me but no pay increase leh..hahaha. He said I dont need to go looking for job now..he said jus stay home n prepare myself to be a mother, n also do more housework! Cos I dont do much haha..not used to doing housework for others..I've always only settled my own stuff, like ironing, washing clothes, cleaning my own room..Now must do for hubby..n a bit for my in laws..But I told my hubby Im not going to 'clean up after his family'..cos they have habit of messing up the house, esp my younger SIL, n they dont help much with housework, even when my older SIL n hb comes over to stay they never lift finger to help my MIL, they dont even clean up after their own meals..MIL very stressed. I think my younger SIL esp should learn to be more helpful, if not at least clean up her own mess..cos she's her mother's daughter n a gir after all..
My MIL sprained her back also this week..Im cooking for this whole week..hehe..which I enjoy..if not she wont allow me to touch the kitchen..always breathing down my back if I wanted to cook something.
Ahger..my parents jus sold their old rag n bone car..haha..n bought a second hand car..definitely cheaper n more worth it..cos new cars depreciated like crazy..I think the car cost ard 30k..every month pay $400.
My hubby is not going to buy a car..cos he doesnt believe in paying installments/by credit..except for HDB flat cos he said flat is no choice..n they dont really depreciate. He said he'll buy a car if he has the money to pay for it one short..hehe..that's him..he adopted that ideal from a Christian teaching of financial freedom..Im actually thankful he is very thrifty n wise with his money, that's why we can get married young, have kids young, n be able to manage so far w/o me working.
Wah my post so long..hehe.
