What can I buy/do with IDR 1million

indonesia-rupiah

One million might sound.. a lot, but it is not since I’m talking about one million in Indonesia Rupiah. Convert it to USD, IDR 1 million is around $88 only. Now, let’s see what can I buy or do with that amount of money. :D

kingstong-flash-disk-hdd

160 GB external hard disk (IDR.625000) and 4GB Kingston Flash Disk (IDR.120000)
I’ve been planning to buy external hard disk since last month, not only to do backup but also convenient purpose as I’ll be traveling this month. I can’t be bringing my PC along or transfer a 40GB data to laptop using a 1GB flash disk. So, it’s best to buy an external hard dish. Finally, yeah.

160 GB is more than enough for me. The 3.5″ external hard disk comes with 3 years warranty. Just hope that the store, where I bought this, won’t close within 3 years time. *touch wood*

The 4GB flash disk is for my brother. I remember last 2 years, 1GB flash disk was at IDR100.000-120.000 and now we can get 4GB at that kind of price. -__-”

love-print-pouch

Cute pink plastic pouch (IDR.11000)
This is also for traveling purpose, to put in shampoo, lotion, whatsoever beauty stuff. Nah, if you want, you can have 90 pieces of this pouch with IDR 1 million.

kie-kie-saloon-medan

Wash + Cut + Blow + Eyebrow Shaving (IDR.290000)
One of the items in my wishlist this year is to have a long curly or wavy hairstyle. I am not a fans to hair extension so I am going to stick to my plan of growing my short Bob hair. Now, it’s been almost 3 months since the last hair cut. Time for trimming! So, I made an appointment with my all time favorite saloon (Kie-Kie) and hairstylist.

finishing-cut-hair

I have a fresh hairstyle and neat eyebrow in less than 90 minutes. The fastest I ever have. Probably because it is weekday and I came early morning 9 am. Whatever. It makes me feel good, that’s it.

Now, time to earn back that 1 million. :P

    hey i am growing my hair length as well. But the wait is torturous especially the weather is so hot in Spore now. It could be rather challenging!

  2. ! million sounds like a lot, but like you said it’s only $88. I guess it sounds better in dollars. $88 in South African money would be under R880. I can say that you probably would be able to only buy the external hard drive and maybe have change for something to eat.

    I know doing your hair here would cost you around R300 to R500.
