Went to a book fair yesterday 1 month ago

and I only bought one book! Hah!

Last year I spent about €120 on books, so that’s good progress if you ask me :D

+ we didn’t park nearby (paying parking lot) but parked a little further down the street (for free).



My first time at M.A.C Cosmetics (damn) 3 months ago

I went to the M.A.C Cosmetics store yesterday… Uhmm… Yeah :)
NOT cheap! But I just let myself go I guess. When It was time to pay up, the woman said: That’ll be €140 please! o_O And I’m just totally shocked! I really wasn’t paying attention to the prices… (like I said “letting myself go”).

When me and my friend walked out of the store he said: “Wow! €170! That’s A LOT!” So I checked the bill and it turns out I misunderstood her! I just spent €170 on make-up! So now I feel SOOO guilty for spending that much, but then again… I wanted it so bad!

It’s my first time buying make-up (never wore it before) and I just wanted to be sure I got the good stuff! :D

Anyway… bad bad girl! Shame on you! :)



I'm so broke! 3 months ago

I did gave up taking a cab though. Didn’t have a choice, can’t afford them anymore.



Damn bus! 3 months ago

I was going to take the public transportation to get home today (instead of taking a taxi, which is costing me a fortune lately)... and I did…

I took the tram (I came from my boyfriend) to the bus station, but when I got there I discovered I just missed it! And I had to wait an hour. The busstation is actually quite a creepy place for a girl standing in the dark for an hour, so I decided to take a cab anyway. PLAN FAILED!

So it cost me more to get home AND I lost about 45 minutes of my precious time, cause I just could’ve gotten a taxi right outside my boyfriends house. And I was already in a bad mood to begin with, cause he never suggests to come with me and wait for the bus together… Sorry if I’m being old fashioned… I just think that would be the right thing to do… (cause it really IS creepy)



I bought... 5 months ago

... Crest Whitestrips instead of going to the dentist for a professional whitening! That saved me about €300 :)



Maybe some visualisation will help? 5 months ago

Gimme gimme!

I believe there is €12500 in this picture… now wouldn’t that be nice? Hmm…?

( €12.500 = $17.419 = £10.742 – you’re welcome ;) )



My list so far 5 months ago

- spend less on groceries (go to a cheaper store)
- only buy the things I really need
- don’t get a cab!
- don’t buy anymore ice cream (this will help with my “have a hot body” goal as well)



Taxi 5 months ago

I took a cab last night when I could’ve taken the bus. I was perfectly aware of this, but was just too damn lazy! It cost me €24, so I really need to take the bus next time!



These will definately help... 5 months ago

- spend less on groceries (go to a cheaper store)
- only buy the things I really need

Don’t know how I’m going to make this work though… since I’m planning on getting my teeth whitened and updating my wardrobe :-)

I also just bought an expensive epilady, but I think it hurts too much so that was a waste of money (well… at least untill I stop being such a baby) So I guess I’ll have to stick with veet for now :-) which is also quite expensive… tsss
