  1. Hello Again, Friend Of A Friend (William)

    Salutations! Why hello there again…. you may or may not remember me from last year.. you know.. that guy that stopped writing after like two months. Yep so anyway that guy is dead. I killed him the other day and stole his body as like a human host. This new William is like William 2.0! […]

  2. Chapter Four: Mexican Recipes for people trying to eat rich on a poor budget (~jinghan)

    In Chapter 1 me and my housemate were doing a lot of cooking on the weekend. Here are the recipes of what we made (for my further reference as well as yours.) —————- Mexican Chicken Broth: (approx. $10 serves about 10+ single meals and cooked chicken can be used in other recipes to make about […]

  3. Chapter Three: More Eat Rich On A Poor Budget Recipes (~jinghan)

    See previous chapter for my rambling about how to make the most of your money when it comes to feeding yourself. Mmmm food… You might eventually notice that a lot of my cooking involves the same view ingredients (^^;;) at any rate some good things to have in your kitchen at: salt, pepper, garlic, vegetable […]

  4. Chapter Two: How To Eat Rich On A Poor Budget (~jinghan in response to “Poor.”)

    Since I’ve had the fortune of thinking about and experimenting with the cost of food without the actual stress of needing to spend less than $30 a week, I thought I would share some of my favourite recipes with you all. If there are inaccuracies with my cost approximations that might have something to do […]

  5. NO OFFER.

    A letter from VTAC, addressed to me. I rip it open, enjoying the sound of tearing paper. NO OFFER. Written in capitals, bold, and size 18 font. How polite! I complain to my bemused housemate, waving the letter around. They even included a pamphlet telling me how to accept my NO OFFER offer! Rub it in, VTAC, rub it in!

  6. Chapter One: Playing House (~jinghan)

    The key turns in the lock with the satisfying sound of unseen mechanics. I’m balancing a loaf of bread at my hip, my backpack hanging off one tilted shoulder, my coat over my arm and juggling my wallet with my key attached in my remaining hand. (And there’s possibly some loose change precariously tucked into […]

  7. Poor.

    The moment when you realise you can’t afford to buy $2 burgers from McDonalds is the moment you realise how poor you are. Having lived only two weeks on a budget of $30, I can declare to you that I need a damned job.   Centrelink is paying me the maximum amount of both Youth […]

  8. Ruminating on Plans Gone Awry – Money, Moving, VTAC Offers

    This is a post about being a good sister (*cough*martyr*cough) and not getting your own way. I’ve been living with my boyfriend for the past six months in a lovely mansion – a heritage listed one, no less – that he rents with 4 other friends. Rent has been very cheap for me and my […]

  9. The Perils of Friends & Personal Freedom

    Strange this, but I don’t think I went into detail as to why I moved. There are perils of living with friends. The thing is, you don’t really know a person until you’ve lived with them a little while. At the start of this year I was incredibly excited to be moving in with one of […]

  10. Rollin’ with it.

    Hey howdy friends and lovers, it’s been… a while… since I checked back here. I feel like I’ve been busy, yet in reflection, I’ve done very little. But then, I don’t think it’s how much you’re doing that defines busy, but how absorbed you are. Little things are still my fascination. =) Today all I’ve […]
