I'm back after a week of hiatus. Mainly cuz I hardly have the time to blog & because my home PC's monitor decided to "retire" on me suddenly. So right now, I can't use my home pc until someone donate a monitor to me (hint: that will be a good xmas gift).

Everytime when I try to save, something sure "cocked-up". Example: monitor spoil, pc down, getting sick, birthdays, weddings, etc. Often, I looked back & wonder "where have all my money gone too"?. I guess I really over-did it this time. Shopping, travel, bloody insurance premiums, facials. And yes, lately I spent so much on facials & skincare, it's frigging disgusting. And what frustrates me further is, I don't see much improvement to my face. *sigh*

You know, when you're young, your parents always tell you to "save money for rainy days" & the virtues of saving. But good young us would usually discard such adage aside. And so now I regret.

Saving is a double-edged sword really. Life's too short & you won't even know if you would still be alive tomorrow. So what's the use of saving when you can't even bring the $$ along with you to heaven/hell. But then, what IF you don't die but live to an old ripe age & is sickly, and dun have the money? So I guess the wise thing to do is to spend & save moderately.

I looked back at my spending habits & have decided to make a resolution to stop. No more impulse buying. The next time I see another pair of shoes or bag that I want to buy, I'll have to tell myself "I don't need another shoes / bag".

As much as I lament myself for the state I am in now. I think it's still not to late to reflect & start saving (that is if I even have enough cash to save....aside from the necessities bills to pay).
