on friday i went to see firework performance and had a party afterwards at friends' house. it was really heart breaking to see all of those beautiful free food enjoyed by everyone except me! pizza, chicken, fried chicken... it's like a dream come true!!! first time to feel regret about having taken up this challenge!

anyway, i beat my desire for supper and had nothing that night. i didn't had lunch on saturday and sunday, so i had supper instead. i don't see it as a breach of my challenge. and i didn't spend more than 10 pounds during past week. and i'm gonna donate the balance(approximatey 1.5 pounds) for charity fighting poverlty.

i haven't spent any money yet. had bread and milk for breakfast, noodle for lunch. really hungary for not having supper tonight. but it's still tolerable.

i will stick to a budget less than 10 pounds  and have no SUPPER at all for the challenge week. so the 10 pounds will only limit to expense on basic food. 

I am excited but nervous about taking up this challenge and to get an idea of what poverty feels like and to see what would prevents me from being able to do, or what will makes more difficult.

the challenge will start tomorrow. i just went to a market tonight and spent 6 pounds. actually i never noticed that i would spend this much until i think about the challenge. spend less than 10 pounds means, a 2-litre milk (1 pound from LIDL), an almost overdue bread(47p LIDL),and noodles with soup(17P, four packs of soup powder), no drink, no pub or bar, no snack at all, and no expence on anything other than basic food.

so, milk and bread for breakfast, noodle soup for lunch, some fry potato and more noodle soup for dinner, for straight seven days!

i'm so excited!

 if i can stick to milk and bread for breakfast and noodle soup for lunch, maybe no more than 5 pounds would be spent.  i will donate the balance of the 10 pounds by the end of the week. one pence less for me is one pence more for the poor who needs it more than me. plus, it's a good chance to lose some weight anyway.
