On A Happier Note......

I know that most of my post about my thoughts aren't exactly uplifting these days, but i am happy that it is April now.. =)

Because it is my Birthday Month! even though turning 24 makes me 1 year older, and its true what people say, when you are in your 20s, you'd find time flies by faster. but its still okay with me, the old jokes dont affect me in any way =)

Though i know i wont have presents or even a cake, im fine with it, i'd rather just be with my family and close friends. and turning 1 year older makes me value a lot of things, and i genuinely prefer company than presents. because i would feel it is a waste of money for someone to buy me a present, which either i dont quite like it, or worse, don't need it.

So yea, i did think of how i wanted my Birthday to be spent when it comes, just a simple everyday dinner at home with the family, and maybe watch some of the videos of youtubers / movies that i've downloaded but havent watched on my lappy would be absolutely satisfying. Even though i do love cakes, but no cake, is still good =) because im trying to cut down on sweet stuff, which i starting to not like so much.

and i've really, realized how much i've changed, i used to spend a lot and always wanting to go out, eat really good food. and buy the stuffs that i dont use often, and thinking that its a must have.

Now i do enjoy shopping once in a while, buying shoes or clothes, and my favorite kind of shopping, (grocery shopping) but everytime when i wanted to buy something even though some of it my mom is going to pay for it, i would always think do i really need it. and end up putting it back to the shelf.

Maybe some of you shopaholics may think, yea, wait until you walk in a shop that has cheap sales. well, i did, last 2 weeks, Kitschen had a buy 1 free 1 sale in 1 Utama, i have to admit i was pretty excited, and there are a lot of clothes i wished to buy after i've tried it on, but i walked out of the shop empty handed. i have to say, im pretty proud of myself. *pats myself on the back*

im still learning, i know all the while money isnt easy to earn, and that it is not everything, so im still learning to have self control to not over-spend and to value the money that not only i myself earned but my family and friends earned.
