Budget during the first weeks of term
新学期第一周做好预算
With the living expenses fresh in your account, you’re so far 'in the black' that you’re positively itching to spend. Beware – you have entered the danger zone. Someone organises a fancy dress party: you fork out on an expensive costume. You need a new hobby: you acquire a ukulele.
生活费刚打到账户的时候,你觉得自己“坐拥资产”,总是蠢蠢欲动地想要花钱。请注意,你已进入危险地带。有人组织化妆舞会,你就下血本去买很贵的服装;想有个新的爱好,你就马上买来一个尤克里里(夏威夷弦拨乐器)。
