Haven't got a haircut since December 2013 cuz I need to save as much money as possible

I get shapeups once every 2 months

I chose to commute to school instead of living on an off campus apartment in my final year of college to save about 12 grand

Because I commute I have to buy $60 worth of gas a week. Every time I do so it feels like I'm placing one of my children up for adoption

When my friends ask me to come out to eat with them I have to check my balance to see if I have 12 dollars in there

Didn't go on dates with numerous girls because I needed to save money to buy a Manchester United jersey

Grilled cheese sandwiches for an entire week. nikkas at school said all they could see was my ribs

Having to become a boxer just for chicken scraps

When you take a girl to McDonald's and she says "can I get a #8 LARGE"

Going on page 32 of a google search and winding up on a random shady Russian website to find a download link of an album cuz you can't afford to shell out $9.99 on iTunes

Getting tickets to a Mets game and thinking of all the better ways you coulda used the money from innings 6-9

15 dollar train tickets making you wanna pass out cuz they're so expensive

Wearing shoes from Marshall's and hoping nobody roasts ya ass

What you know about your moms putting powder milk into a gallon milk jug so company doesnt judge us

and they can still taste the difference but they dont say anything about it

Seeing some change on the table and wait for it to go unclaimed for a day before taking it

Deciding not to eat dinner because you're just gonna wake up hungry anyway

Having to go back in the hamper because you didn't have enough money to wash your clothes

Asking the grocery store clerk to check the price after she takes some items off

Coloring in the scuff spots on your black shoes with a sharpie

When you tell the gas station worker lemme get $4 on pump 10

When you tell the drive thru person...yea that's it, just the $1.00 burger and the $1.00 fry

When you drop a handful of nickels and dimes to pay at the counter

Going grocery shopping and having to unpack 90% the shyt at the till coz you can't afford that shyt.

Putting 2x to 3x as much water in the ramen noodles and convincing yourself its noodle soup.

Not owning a pair of pyjamas.

Walking for 2 hours to your cousins house on weekends and sleeping over claiming that it's too late to walk back up just so that you can have food.

Borrowing sugar from one neighbour, coffee from the other and 2 teabags from the people that stay behind me to have a cup of tea.

Saying you're trying to quit drinking to avoid going out with your friends because you know you can't afford to drink.

Timing your shyts so that they happen at work coz you aint got toilet paper. BONUS not shytting on weekends because you have to keep it in until the next Monday.

Self imposing and diagnosing yourself with anorexia to justify you not eating to yourself when the real reason is that food is a luxury.

Rolling in neutral while driving to save gas money.

Being invited to the local pawn shop owners daughters 21st birthday party and you've never had a conversation with the man outside of the store.

Going to a restaurant and putting hair on the plate after you eat half of it and argue to get the meal free.

Being banned from the local petrol station because I've "forgotten" my bank card at home too often.

When I was in between jobs and straight fukking broke, I gather all the change I could in my apartment. I went to a 7-11 and got a hot dog and chips just dumped in chili, cheese, and onions. Cashier looked at me disappointed at the mere volume free condiments that covered the little shyt i had. The struggle was real.
