I thought it was the end of this blog...
I swear I thought it was the end of this blog...
Mainly because I tried logging in with another email account (my main account), and on the dashboard, it said I don't have any blogs created! I could almost die right there! I thought my blog disappeared into thin air, or decided to run away from me after being neglected for too long...
But lo and behold!
This blog was connected to another email account (my secondary account - mainly for junks). UGH.
I hate the transition when Google decided to buy over everything... I confused my account on YouTube previously, and now confused my account here. I wonder what else Google is gonna screw up.

I've decided to invest in a new camera.... Mainly because my current Canon digital camera is retarded. The battery dies out after snapping like 5 pictures, and the LCD screen will flicker in the middle. It's retarded after 4 long years of abuse.
So...
I've decided to go a step ahead, and get a semi-pro digital camera! And the ones in my current list are:
- Canon Powershot SX30 IS
- Nikon Coolpix P500
Well, yes, I've narrowed it down to 2 of them. And both are very similar in tech specifications. However, I am lemming towards the Powershot one mainly because of the ability to flip the LCD screen... so that I can see myself when I camwhore (not that I do often nowadays). It's definitely slightly pricier than the Coolpix.... but I did say 'investment', right?
Perhaps, hopefully, with the purchase of a new camera, I shall resume my camwhore glory days. And random pictures. And relive my VindictiveArts.
Yes, I wanted to make VindictiveArts work out... And if you don't know what that it, well, screw you. Just kidding.
VindictiveArts is mainly my portal to just snap random shots of whatever, do minor editing, and just slap the watermark across the picture to claim that it belongs to me. I can be pretty obsessive.
That reminds me, I need a new freaking laptop. And I am sooooooo gonna get myself a MacBook when I can. Woot! Or an iMac. Seriously, I need to make a credit card and get myself a new laptop. My current one is slowly dying on me.... And I need a new Adobe Photoshop software.

Remember the time where I said I will stop shopping?
Well, I'm still addicted. At least I'm being honest.
But I suppose if I have new commitments (like a monthly dentist visit), and new wishlists (like a new camera), I hope it will help me stop.
I can swear that I have clothings and shoes and bags that are enough to last me for a long time without purchasing new ones.... Unless I grow fatter.
I'm trying to stop. It's hard. But since I'm able to stop purchasing so much makeup, I'm sure I can make it with the clothings as well.
And yes, I am trying to use up my makeup stuffs before purchasing any new ones, and I dare say I am doing such a good job at it. So I should apply it to clothes.

I've decided to commit into saving a little bit more cash per month now.... So I'm kinda restricting my cash. So, apologies in advance if I decline any gatherings, etc... because I might be broke in terms that I do not wanna touch my savings account.
So I'm kinda limiting myself to a $500/month thingy... just so that I can save enough for me to survive when I resign at a later stage and in the midst of finding a new job, etc.
Also, I have other commitments like paying my insurance (which is like $150/month), my cellie bills (which is like $65/month..... thanks to data plan which enables me to access the internet everywhere), and room rent (which is like $300/month). Also, remember that I have to give my mom some cash for groceries, help my mom pay the Mio bill + her cellie bill... And money for the EzLink card (I tend to top up like $20 every one and a half weeks, since I have to take BOTH the bus and train daily to travel to work, or out). Also not forgetting about my basic necessities such as shampoo + conditioner (unfortunately for me, my hair agreed with Asience... and that shampoo is rather pricey... But I swear by the products!), facial wash, makeup removers, etc etc.
I've come to realize that money disappears rather fast.... Even with all the shit work I do at work, the money disappears faster. Trust me, I'm usually broke after 2 weeks after payday. And I try to skim through the last 2 weeks with whatever's left.
FML.
