There is a crucial reason why we need to make a food budget. Sometimes, we spend a lot of money, which is away more than you expectation, on food, monthly. Most of us vastly underestimate how much we actually spend. When it comes to the end of the month, the expense is surprisingly high. Someone might think the expense of food is what it is and we have nothing to do with it. However, when we start to make a food budget, we will be in charge of our money easily.

     There are two main steps to make a food budget. Firstly, you need to track your daily expense specificly. Keep eveything in track and do not cheat yourself. You shouldn't ignore even one dollar because it can add up to a surprising number at the end of the month. Secondly, you make a plan on what you necessarily need to buy and cut out others you don't need. In addition, it will be a good way to save the money by making the food yourself instead of going to the restuarant.

How to Create A Monthly Budget For Food  by  Sandy Baker

Project homeless connect

   When I was told we were going to help those homeless people on last Friday, I was so excited about that. I thought it was a nice opportunity for me practice my oral English. In addition, it was also an extremely meaningful event for both of the students and homeless people. Furthermore, it is a extraordinary experience for me to sever the public. I couldn't even help thinking about it in my mind again and again. I was really looking forward to taking part in the event.

  However, when I got there on Friday morning, I found the things were a little bit out of imagination. When we walked on the sidewalk outside the convention center, I saw lots of homeless people sitting on the ground and waiting for our help. They looked so helpless and hopeless. I started to worry if I can really do something for them, am I truly helpful. I took my cell phone out, and it was 9 o'clock.

  After all the registration stuff, the guest I served occurred. It was a lady with her 4-year-old son. She checked all the services she wanted to receive first, and she sent his child to the child care center. Then, we started to make everything in the right track. But there were thousands of people there, so the line for each service was extremely long, and I did spend a huge amount of time in waiting in line. Especially for the ID service, waiting in line took us about 1 hour. Unfortunately, the lady lost her SAMSUNG cell phone. We couldn't find it in the lost and found or the counter where we thought she lost her cell phone. I saw the sadness from her eyes, it looked so frustrated and sad and I couldn't even say a word to comfort her. By the time he left, we didn't still find her cell phone. Looking at the view of her son and her, I felt so disappointed and  exhausted.

  I did learn something from those homeless people, which I will never forget. It was a meaningful but frustrating day, however, that is how life works. Life doesn't go easy on anybody.
