    My best advice for budgeting is sticking with your list. Make a hand written list. If possible, meal prep. This will help you plan for what you need. You can even lookup pricing on the store's website. Have your list in front of you the entire time you shop. Check off each item and write the price next to it. Once you have every item on the list, add up the total. If you are over, find a cheaper alternative for something in your basket. If not available, you have to choose what item to remove. This is a non-negotiable if you are sticking to your budget. Its better to do this before you get to checkout. If you are below budget, you can get additional "wants", but do not exceed budget. This really helped me when I was in college.

    Amaya you did great remember it is an inflation so by stocking up on cooked rice and dumplings you don't have to purchase them in a hurry. Also I do the Ramen but instead of putting the entire packet of seasoning I put half and put the rest in a container to season soups. But Ramen is the best crave and budget friendly food.

    This is the best advice. Veggies are perishable and you only have a few days to keep them fresh, unless you parboil and freeze. I doubt you have that much room.

    I was just thinking this. My husband and I do food storage. I know a lot of people don't have the time or space for it, but it saves so much money to buy all of our staples (we are vegetarian so quinoa, lentils, etc) in bulk at Sam's club. Then, we buy fresh veggies as we need them.

    You be confident in your ability to speak korean . That man in the market understood you, he just was surprised you spoke korean. Keep pushing against stereotypes while embracing your beautiful blackness also. Do you have a place to store this stuff a dormitory fridge that is big enough?! Wow, i guess you are in dorm with a common kitchen for cooking! Pretty good freshman hookup here. So proud of you taking the bus getting to know your college town in new ways! You did an excellent job budgeting, commuting ! Love the re braided hair looks great!! I'm sure they have healthier selections in the cafeteria make sure you advocate for some. Students do get homesick for specifics types of food you advocating may help other students from various countries attending the University. Make sure you are working out with friends!! Do you have a roommate (s)? Definitely would like to see your interaction with others on campus if they dont mind being filmed. Friendship is part of the college experience also! We dont want you filming so much that you are missing the opportunity to make lasting friendships. So proud of you young sis continue to exercise self care in your academic pursuits!❤

    아마야~~ You are so cute and intelligent!! When you talked to the man in the market you said, "벌써 다 했어?" Which feels more like "You already did everything?" So I think he was confused! Your accent is so good, so it wasn't because of that! I think next time if you want to ask if a product is gone out, you can say "품절이에요?" This is more asking about if the product or something is sold out! Keep being such a bright girl! 화이팅~~

    My best adivce is to look at what you already have in your food box, in your fridge and your freezer. Then work out a mea plan with what you have left for the week. After that plan out other meals for the rest of that week, and the week ahead. That way you know what you need to get each week. Basically just plan your meals for each week and stick to that list utilising what you already have left in you food box, fridge and freezer.

    a few budgeting tips, dumplings are delicious but will almost always end up causing you to go over budget, only contemplate getting them at the end of the grocery trip. you should also find out if maybe a dumpling restaurant near you sells theirs frozen, they are often cheaper or you get more for the price. also it helps to use a calculator as you go, putting in the price for each item you put in your cart instead of guessing towards the end. separating your cart is helpful as well, put all the necessities in one area, and have those rung up first at check out, and then after seeing the total, slowly add the other items in the cart, that way if you are close to being over budget, you have all the necessities and don't have to ask to have items removed from the bill

    I have had & enjoy Korean food. I think you did well with your shopping. It difficult to stay on budget when shopping to eat healthy. Give yourself a Pat on the Back. A common issue among College students is not eating healthy during college. Hence the expression the college 15 as in gaining weight. I am glad to see you are taking control of your health & well being God Bless🙏🏽
