It has been a while.

My boyfriend commented that i have been neglecting my blog sphere journal. When he brought that up, i know it was a golden moment - rare and alarming. :) Normally, i will have to drop him verbal nudge when i update to inform him to read. I was busy, really busy. Busy with work. I guess, that covers all and explains all right? :) I know it is a terrible excuse but it is truly the culprit.

Fortunately, work is still refreshing and engaging, my colleagues - a blast! So, despite the hectic schedules and heavy workload.... i am happy. most of the time that is.

my relationship is moving along in a steady matter but slowly... it is a long story, one that i rather tell in cold winter nights to my grandchildren to lull them to sleep... so lets keep our fingers cross on that.

So, as my comeback topic. I would like to plagiarize the subject from my friends- whom i believe are good research grounds... (drum rolls.... )

Branded Goods - Bags esp.
As a working adult (Wow!), (WOW.... sorry, i couldn't get pass that... lol) i have the income to pursue branded goods. For me, the most tempting ones would be bags, but so far... i have not owned any yet (referring to Burberry, Gucci, Agnes B, LV etc etc.). it is not that i am unmoved by these prestigious names and their exquisite designs, but that i have different priorities.
Namely, clearing my debt, signing up for fitness classes, taking up insurances, going for holidays... i have always believe that memories and experiences are more valuable than material goods. Thus, i have been making decisions true to my values. every time i walk by the enticing window displays and hear about people talking about their collection, my hands will itch, i will suddenly feel a strong tug at my heart. But i cant. i will not! Because i have promised to pay back my debts first. And i will stick to that.

I am actually quite happy that i can stick to this. And have for some time now. It makes me feel good to know that i am strong. That i will not give up for something that i believe in without a fight! Rah!
