“Mom, can I have some money?” Those are the words my mother used to hear all the time. In return, I heard, “ Why don't you get a job? Not to make me happy, but so that you have your own money and gain a bit more responsibility.” So last year I got a job working about 25 hours a week. For $5 an hour, working as a salesman in a photo studio.
After I got this job, I had to do football, homework and job ___1___. It was really hard for me. I was burning out, falling asleep at school and failing in many courses. My teachers were mad ___2___ me and yelled at me: why have a job? I missed a lot practice in football team and could only ___3___ back down at the match. My coach was cold at me with an unasked question: why have a job? I told them it was for the things I need, when actually it was for the things I wanted. Needing and wanting are different. Needing something is like your only shoes have holes in them. But wanting is to have every new brand sneaker just because you like it. I start to think about if I did a wrong thing. Slowly, I learnt to ___4___ my money better so that I could have more time for school and football. I learnt to make a wise decision ___5___ what I need and what I want.
