Throwback to a few weeks back, where I got a special delivery breakfast from JH. It was yummy banana cake all the way from Johor Bahru! Hiap Joo Bakery definitely sells one of the best banana cakes in that district. :D

The Story of Me Being a Slave to Consumerism
Okay, it is not so much of a story, but more like how these year-end sales are bloody money suckers, and how I still fall for them despite the awareness T.T
9.9 Sales
Basically I bought a random lot of products, such as a bralet, some stickers, waterproof handphone pouch, as well as silicon gel to stick on the back of the shoes because I never fail to get blisters with new shoes. But wait, wtf do I need stickers for?! LOL, y'know those things you buy on impulse because you just cannot resist how cute they are. Hmm... But I redeemed myself by selling off my bralet in the end because it was a wrong fit.
10.10 Sales
I managed to snag a free $5 off shipping voucher from Ezbuy, so I went ahead to buy some household items such as storage bags, laundry bags, silicon cling wrap and knife peeler. LOL, what an auntie I am but I actually find enjoyment in shopping for such products. I also pampered myself by getting bedroom slippers, shorts to wear at home, two bags and a box of hairties and many pretty hairpins! My best buy is tumbler which I am quite in love with. Hope this serves me well when I am out in the workplace!
Black Friday / Cyber Monday Sales
I bought shoes, socks, wallet, phone stand, pants, and more laundry bags (LOL) from Ezbuy and Lazada. I also splurged on Crocs. LOL, they have this super good 'Buy 2 Get 1 Free' promotion?! Not a fan of Crocs because I don't really quite like their designs, but then it is really quite easy to dry when I wear them during rainy days! But after which I came across Hush Puppies promotion of 'Buy 1 for 1', and I nearly fainted. I have my eyes on a few bags, but in the end I stopped myself from buying further because I am "broke".
Not to mention, my family are also buying many stuff too! This year, I also tried purchasing from shopping sites that I never purchased before, like ASOS. Hopefully the clothes fit :D
My hands got really itchy because online shopping applications such as Zalora and Sephora kept beckoning to me to spend money by sending many notifications with their promo codes and discounts T.T Thankfully Shoppee decided to log me out of the application (I only managed to sign in after all the sales) LOL!
(Pastamania)
But arghs, I am a broke woman now. So my sister and I tried to find some place with student meals for lunch. We ended up at Pastamania. Long time since I have been there, but there is a reason why - their food still taste mediocre.
I am all alone with you,
My days are dark without the glimpse of you.
But now that you came into my life,
I feel complete.
The flowers bloom, my morning shines,
and I can see.
