So… a few things…

  • Still wondering if I should get a domokun toy… Anyway, I changed my icons today, a mix of several collections but I’m loving these vintage looking notebooks as folders. I also decided to make them jumbo sized BECAUSE these (and most all of Mac’s) graphics are so awesome, it’s a shame if you don’t see all the details the artists put in them!!! HAHA!!! I also love the autumn inspired icons I used for my Trash (garbage can) and URL (tree).
  • I applied for a second job since my current one has been zero for a month and more. Hopefully I’ll get it so I can be busy with something, not just staying at home or spending money shopping — online and real life.
  • Speaking of shopping… I know I have said it a million times before, how I would control my spending and adopt a new shopping style. Sheesh, do I ever fail on that!!! I spent the whole day yesterday walking in from store to store to store! I did try to “control” how much I squander and spent time mulling over which of the stuff I need to leave in the store. I ended up getting these:
    1. shirt dress from H&M
    2. sweater dress from H&M
    3. skinny jeans from H&M
    4. v-neck cardigan from H&M
    5. flare jeans from Nordstrom
    6. dolman sleeved cardigan from Nordstrom
    7. 3/4 sleeved top from Nordstrom
    8. long sleeved top from Nordstrom Rack
    9. leggings from Nordstrom Rack

    It’s actually not bad since I have three outfits going on right there and I only spent around $200 for the whole loot.

Maybe I can win a handbag?

So, I get this email from Crystal about HandbagPlanet.com and it’s about a contest they’re doing for the launch of the site. All you have to do is give them a name and an email, then choose a handbag you wish to get. So basically, you put your “name” to a bag you like which corresponds to a certain hour when they’ll give that handbag away for free. It makes your chances slim because you only have an hour window and not the whole day, but hey, it’s worth a shot!!!

This is actually really cool because I have just been beginning to be handbag crazy. It’s kind of my “rush” right now, which hopefully, and I know I will, get out of soon. I’m crazy over Kathy Van Zeeland lately and recently acquired a Burgundy Studio 54 Satchel and a Copper Rock & Roll Fold Over Tote (this one I’m not so sure of). I actually want one from the Shopper collection too! Hehehe!! No worries, I didn’t (or won’t) pay full price… but even so, they’re still “unplanned expenses”. I gotta stop this!!!! So please HandbagPlanet, make me win something!!!

By the way, I think today is my twin cousins’ birthday.
Happy birthday Ate Sweet and Ate Princess! (It’s their nicknames!)
