My classmates spend 500,000 RMB on studying in Australia for a year, while I am criticized for "wasting" 300,000 RMB in a year.
Today has been a particularly unhappy day for me. Suddenly, my mom told me to be more frugal, even though I have already been trying my best to save money. I won't be able to receive any scholarships, but I will take up odd jobs. Like last time when I mentioned earning $15 per hour, some people didn't believe me, but it was because I couldn't find any other options that I resorted to it.
However, it truly feels unjust. I know how hard my parents work to support my education, so I never complain to them. But today, I feel incredibly aggrieved. Seeing my classmates enjoying their leisure time while I am toiling away at odd jobs is truly heart-wrenching.
When I mention the figure of three hundred thousand, it is indeed true. I often take up part-time jobs and live far away from campus, which means I spend about an hour commuting to school every day. It's tiring, but I have no other choice.
Wishing everyone a joyful and fulfilling study abroad experience.
