JB with Y

Today went to JB with Y. Main kpi was to bank in mum's cheque.

Y did that while I went to do some shopping. Bought two tops. Then we met at Watsons and I bought a lot of skincare and toothpaste.

We then went city sq, wanting to eat lunch. Most shops are closed so we went to buy bbt at gongcha and ate one pastry from ming an.

Then we grabbed to Paradigm mall. Never been there.

Ate lunch at oriental kedai, Y ate a Indonesian dish while I ate spicy ban mee. It was too spicy, could not finish it. Y helped with a few bite.

Then we went to find demon slayers stuff. At impulse trading,bought 2 demon slayers, 摆乌龙 thought got 3 for 2. Had to diu lian and put back one. Then yenn song yong wo to buy a PS5 controller. Found a metallic green one and bought it. Wanted to pay with Tng but it failed...

Yenn paid cash 497.

Then we went to popular, bought some pens. Walked a bit, Y went to shit.

Decided to eat cendol, and it was not too bad.

Went back to oriental to buy some food stuff.

Then we made our way back.

Filled with anxiety as yenn card failed. Mine I think failed too because I did not enable the overseas transaction so my trip sg to msia was not paid. Think it got blacklisted. Then my card failed when boarding cw2 at sg side. Y used her card.

Managed to make it back to sg.

Made me think twice about taking cw bus.

Next time need to use my Citibank one cos my posb one should be blacklisted.

Lily antics

Ever since xb passed away, Lily had been waking me in sometimes from 2am onwards. She does this by sniffing super loudly at my bedroom door gap.

in the midst, spewing her mucus on the bedroom door gap area, yucky.

Her antics worsened my insomnia issues.

2 days ago, a brilliant thought crossed my mind. i decided to spray my bedroom entrance with lemongrass fragrances.

this is a scent lily and xb hates. i used to spray it over areas the dogs peed accidentally.

started this trick on sunday night, wow, she really didnt do the sniffing. i repeated yesterday, and she also didnt do the sniffing.

though i woke up, but it was due to a full bladder rather than due to noise. i could get back to sleep shortly.

finally some use for my lemongrass fragrances.

braun buffel wallet

I bought myself a 135 red braun buffel wallet 

Initially was aiming for a 100 buck green wallet then i chanced upon the red small wallet. It was an online exclusive and it fit all my criteria.

Waited a few days and just took the plunge. Sept had been a spending mood.

Not sure why, but keep feeling time is running out...for me. Shall see if my hunch is correct.

Had this feeling when i tio the 100-day cough cos was coughing so bad, but miraculously recovered. Was so bad i wanted to get an xray but it went away b4 i could try to book one.

Been buying blindboxes almost every week, but everytime tried to rein in, ended up spending more.

I bought my LG a pink paper flower, made it on 24 sept, which was his birthday. He loved pink. I hope he feels happy with the gift.

xiaomi truclean 30

Shortly after i bought the vaccuum mop, i realised it drips droplets while mopping. Initially was v impulsive and wanted to throw it out but today, I thought about my past vaccuum mop.

The first one was 599, roidmi 30 and the circular mop head wheels came off but it still function as required. I had it for 4 years and it never gave me much prob.

2nd was xiaomi truclean 20, bought for 280. It lasted me 1 year plus and the reason i wanted the 30 was that it can lie down 180deg so i can clean under furnitures and bed. Also, it doesnt last long, plus the suction is weak so it does not pick up hair easily. It also cannot wipe stains effectively because the mop head does not have a downward suction.

Indeed, with 30, i no longer needed to sweep the floor first. It has a longer battery life, so i can just leave it on a stain and it could mop away the stains especially lily dried mucus.

It also has a drying function so the mop head does not smell. 20 smells badly.

But i gave my 20 to my mum because they do not mop the floor regularly so i go there every week to help them mop with 20, with new mop brush. It still does a decent job when u compare mopping vs no mopping :)

I am going to raze my 30 to the ground before changing. Dont be fickle minded.

awfully choc brunch buffet

Went to awfully choc brunch buffet with sis, G. Had funny conversations where we felt judged for being lok kok, wore crumpled tops and slippers to it.

Dont think it is worth the 45 bucks. The savory and desserts were not impressive... anyway G went with me to city hall after wards to walk off the fullness. I went for my erhu class while she went to suntec to jalan jalan.

Werent feeling good so drank 2 kopi. Got ourselves a phone skullpanda accessory and we got the same one. Duplicates. Anyway went home after buying tian ren bbt but with no bb.

Spent 100 bucks plus erhu 65 ha. Helped with the economy.

FI

Money cannot buy happiness, but it buys freedom. 

It pays for half of my monthly expenses while i work part time for other half.

I only work three days, this is such a luxury. Also, because I still suffer from insomnia, the two days allow me to catch up on my sleep when needed.

I got 4 rest days every week. Such a luxury. when I complain of being tired, my coll always joked back said I work 3 days, looks who is talking. A reminder I am blessed. I forget this on days when I suffer insomnia.

I still spend on a whim, didnt rein my expenses precisely becos I am FI.
