I am experiencing yet again bouts of craving. I can’t exactly remember how it was triggered (although I could conveniently put the blame on my friend who just arrived from Paris 
), but I am starting to feel the strong urge to scratch the itch. The picture on the right is a dead giveaway of my exact emotion right now, and if hubby sees this, I’m sure he’d freak out!
It was only recently when I took the vows of thriftiness. After realizing that I somehow would need to employ practicality in my life at some point (yes, I’m a late bloomer in that aspect of life), I took the following simple vows:
- I vow to remember what my priorities are.
- I vow to buy only when necessary.
- And I vow not to do impulse buying.
With the rate of things now, it looks like my subconscious self also took a separate vow — to break these three vows eventually. Ha! Bags, shoes, clothes, travels and even a new car have been occupying my mind lately, as if my work is not enough to keep me distracted. Sigh. I guess I just need to reinforce to myself the very reason why I took those three vows, that is to be able to retire young. So if in case you see me toting a new Chloe or find out that I am out for a vacation trip, I probably just got lucky with a windfall. That… or my EQ just bailed out on me big time.
