Pre-Holiday Shopping

OK, I am supposed to save up for my upcoming trip or at least save up. My financial consultant (a really close friend) nearly killed me due to my contribution didn't went through the month before. I had to consult him on the reason and he bought it. Plus, my hard work finally paid off and really well I might add. Even after putting aside for the trip, I have a few to spare. Hence I splurged a bit before my Shop-a-holiday.

I've been searching for short sleeve button down and it was quite arduous searching for one. I've always fancied Muji's clothing but got turned off by the price and cutting. I was just wondering around contemplating on a baumkuchen purchase when I stumbled upon the men clothing rack. It was a simple design and it was on 30% sale. I tried some on and was quite amazed of the material, fitting (I still fit "freaking" Medium) and the cutting. I loved it and pursued the purchase.

 

I still couldn't stop buying books when I still have one or more that are left unread. It's just something made ready should I just feel like reading. I don't need to go out and search for the things to read or wait 3 weeks for my purchase to arrive. My latest book is of a mindset of how a character that I've recently adores, Sherlock Holmes.

 I've managed to complete Assassin's Creed 3 within a week and a book before and after the game. Another thing to stand by is a game. Just something I've been wanting to continue playing. There isn't any games that I'm waiting for at the moment.

Lastly, I brought my consultant friend to shop for my niece's birthday gift. He did mentioned that I shouldn't buy things that is expensive but buy something that the person needs. It's the thought that counts. Though what would a 3 year old need and would she understand gratitude maturely. He gave me a lot of options of books and clothes but she'll outgrew them. I've been procrastinating a gift that I've been wanting to get her and finally believe she's old enough to enjoy.

A little girl needs a bit of imagination to work that mind and she adores it when she unwrapped her present(tore through the wrappers). The parents including aunts were in awe too. A quality gift for a little girl, a doll house. I had to get something for the brother too as I missed his birthday. Wanted to get him a Little Prince picture book but wasn't able to find it. So the next best thing is a game by LEGO. Should have checked whether he had it first. Time to look for another gift then.

After all the shoppings, my consultant told me that I spent a lot but noticed that I'm not stingy for my money. LOL... that was a laughter. It's selective. I can't be doing it all the time for everyone, just for the closest people I would.

Now I just can't wait what my next entry be like from my Christmas Shopping Trip to Hong Kong!
