Haul: November 2010


I have a pre-new year's resolution.

  • To watch what I buy
  • To be more practical
  • To save money 


Yeah, its a friggin' hard one almost like a suicide attempt in my case. :( Because sadly, I am one of the many who feels gratified whenever I shop (online or in-store) and who loves to feel beautiful all the time. PS I used the word feel, right there. But anyway, I figured that baby steps is fine, so not to make myself feel deprived (or else, I will come back with apocalyptic vengeance) and I know, naturally, I will get there sure enough. 


In my haul segment, I will be documenting my 'wants' purchases in here to serve as a way to see where the little money I have goes to. A warning: this is nowhere near me bragging about what I own, etc. I use my own hard earned money to purchase all these and put some thought/reasoning (however superficial) as to why I'm getting these for myself. Also, I really don't have much and don't intend to buy big ticket items, unless I find a reasonable reason to get it. 

So, moving on to my haul. These are my purchases (it just so happened that all these are beauty-related products and toiletries) within the 1st and 2nd week of November. As I mentioned earlier, I am trying to curb my urge to spend on things that I don't really really need, like clothes and accessories, but that doesn't mean I did not attempt/window shopped for those. But look at me! I succeeded! - For now at least.
