Lamb of God - I Need The Money!

After two years of National Service in the Navy, I was about to return to the civil world.

I received a letter from Housing Development Board asking me to attend an interview for the post of a Clerk of Work. Well, I wasn't interest in working at the site, I rejected the invitation.

My college result was not good enough for me to attend the local university.
I planned to further my study in Australia with the consensus from my mom.

Well, why Australia?
My aunt's whole family was migrated there and she said she would support my study. She would provide everything including accommodation, transport (a car), meals except school fees.

So, I needed to make money. Anyway, I saved quite a fair bit of money though the Navy allowance was not great. But when I was 8 year-old, I told my mum I wanted to study in a university, she told me to save up the money. Since then I started saving every penny, even skipping meal to save the lunch money.

When I was in the Navy, I always ate onboard ship or in camp before booking out, just to save the money. I saved every allowance I received during those 2 years.

When I left Navy, I had almost 10,000 in my bank. I was pretty proud of that.

During those days, I was only thinking of making money and further my study, God was not in my mind at all.
