This week has been pretty good, let's keep it up.

Nobody told me senior year would be this exhausting 😭😭 Why is so much stuff all crammed into one day 🫪 Another day of blowing up

Following the Kai Kai case and news reports of social workers defrauding 12 million [currency unspecified], honestly, the public's trust in the professional role of social workers has started to waver. However, I still want to say that most social workers advocate, empower, and speak up for vulnerable groups. Therefore, I believe we shouldn't let a few negative examples tarnish the public's perception of all social workers.

Saving money isn't about buying nothing; it's about spending your money on what you truly need. Here are 5 methods to help you reduce unnecessary expenses. 1. Wait 24 Hours Before Buying When you want to buy something, put it in your cart and re-evaluate it the next day to avoid impulse purchases. 2. Watch Out for Small Expenses Drinks, snacks, and small online purchases can easily add up to large expenses. Track your spending for a month to identify areas where you can cut back. 3. Compare Prices Before Ordering Before buying, compare prices across different platforms and physical stores, and consider coupons, free shipping, and cashback offers. 4. Prioritize Paying Your Credit Card in Full High rewards don't always mean saving money. If you spend more just to get rewards, you'll end up increasing your expenses. Always pay your balance in full each month to avoid interest charges. 5. Save First When You Get Paid After your salary is deposited, set aside a fixed amount, for example, $50, and then use the remaining balance for living expenses. Saving first and then spending makes it easier to accumulate savings than trying to save what's left at the end of the month. The Easiest Way to Start You don't need to change all your habits at once to save money. You can start by simply recording your daily expenses. Once you clearly know where your money is going, it will be easier to find adjustment methods that work for you.

The other day, I drove my husband to the dentist. I personally hate the smell of dental clinics, so I waited in the car. I parked my car in a parking spot, and shortly after, a car behind me bumped into it while parking. A paint scratch from their license plate was left on my car's rear. After reporting it, the other party's attitude was good, saying they would compensate me. I got an estimate from the repair shop, which was about 6000 yuan, and informed the other party of the amount. However, after a month, they stopped answering calls and messages. Since I couldn't reach them, I had to seek help from a mediation committee. On the day of mediation, while waiting, I could vaguely hear discussions about how to handle houses worth millions or how to coordinate land disputes in the tens of thousands. When it was our turn, I directly told the mediation committee member that I wanted double the compensation, 12000 yuan. It's not that I'm trying to rip them off. I just felt that this 'a-ju-ma's' attitude was problematic. Since you made me go through this trouble, I think it's only right to ask for some travel expenses. In the end, we negotiated for 10000 yuan, and they wanted to pay in three installments?! The 'a-ju-ma' just kept crying poverty throughout the process. Constantly saying things like, "You want money even for a small scratch." The classic line from the mediation committee member: "No one here ever tells me they have a lot of money." Conclusion If you can't drive, don't drive. You can hit a parked car, so if you're a bad driver, just pay up properly.

Good evening

Meaning: It's useless to explain principles to someone who doesn't understand them. It implies looking down on the other person. It is now also used to mock people for speaking without considering their audience. Story: During the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, the famous musician Gongming Yi played a very difficult song while facing a cow that was grazing. The cow ignored him and continued to eat grass. After careful observation, Gongming Yi realized that the cow couldn't understand the music at all, so he played a tune that sounded like mosquitoes, flies, and calf bleating. The cow immediately perked up its ears and listened. (See "Hongming Ji")

You should use your turn signal even when turning on a regular road, so on a winding mountain road, wouldn't you be signaling constantly?
