retail therapy at its best

i splash a total of $100-odd yesterday on a single shopping trip on my own! a minute amount for most, girls especially, but it's almost 20-30% of my monthly paycheck! =s

half of which is spent on school-related necessities; mouse (yeah, the old one gave up after it was dropped the 18725492735th time) and thumbdrive. the other half is spend on 2 pairs of adidas shorts; a good buy considering i'm wearing short 97% of the time and my old ones have been serving me since NS, or is it JC, days! =x

i see so many things i want but the lack of a stable income meant that such luxuries will have to wait. it's always important to differentiate wants from needs.

also, i've made a decision to work less and put in more effort into my studies.

as i see the last of my 2-weeks holidays, it also means that school is starting. in about 2days no less. it's scary how the 2 week break just flew past me. yueshan and myself managed to spend some quality time together

we know that once she starts work and i start school, we might not be able to enjoy such luxuries of spending the entire day doing nothing and everything together.

i'm going to enjoy it as much and as long as i can. as we can. =)

sidenote:

i'll blog on our 1st overseas trip together and my 1st overseas trip without my folks!

watch this space.

fear.
