Day 26-28

It's not going well with decluttering my stuff but at least I haven't add anything in the past days and I've been using some of the stuff that have been waiting to be used for a while^__^// I think that's a good start :P
I've decided to look for a new laptop model after finishing my class papers.

I have the urge to buy the new spring tea that was released by Alnatura a short time ago, but will postpone it until I finished one of the other tea packages^^

Day 23 & 24

Yesterday I joined the "no buy year" at an Internet forum. We encourage each other to not buy unnecessary things, try to avoid excess and focus not to buy stuff out of boredom but because we need them. So I joined them for the next 3 months for a start and then I'll see how I'll continue^^ I want to save for a new Laptop, because mine is kind of broken (I need to use Linux on the fly and because of that it takes ~10min until it is usable .__.) And also I want to save for a trip to Japan to meet my friends again ^__^

So far so good.. because of the forum thread I didn't buy several things I already have a lot of.. for example washi tape :P  I already have tons of those but felt a bit tempted to buy them.. and then remembered: nope I don't need another one (especially because I ordered some online a few days ago...). I hope I can avoid at least these small money busters in the future.

Day 20

Day 20 - Jan 11

Today I decided it will be my last "daily" post because I will be quite busy preparing and writing essays until the end of February. Blogging is a bit time consuming (and I guess since I'll be busy I won't have that much to talk about anyway..) Also I want to cut down time spent on the computer and well.. I have to admit that I'm quite lazy to turn my somewhat broken computer on when it takes 10 minutes to do it. (I will mainly be working in university for the papers.)
I will be using pen and paper from Monday to Saturday and blog about the process on Sunday :)
So instead of just listing things I will also be counting how many times I'm using the item.


What I used/wear today
-golden pen
-postcards
-cardstock
-coconut oil
-alverde mango lotion
-weleda hand lotion
-st. ives apricot scrub

What I bought today
-postage stamps (also used them up today)

What I threw away (other than regular trash)
-old newspaper (from 2012?)

What I reused/upcycled/made today
-made a b-day card for my friend :)

What I used up
-nothing-

What I gave away
-nothing-

Day 17,18,19

Jan 8-10

Ok, now it's three days put together o__o I hope I don't slack off too much >__< On monday classes start again so I guess I will be struggling to continue but give it my best :) By the way.. most of my slacking in blogging is because my computer is broken and it takes 10 minutes just to turn it on .__. I will be saving for a new one.. when I find a job >__> So basically I shouldn't be buying unnecessary stuff... but it is quite tempting though I'll try not to spend money on the small things that add up and just add to the clutter!
So because in the past days I bought some Xmas stickers and deco confetti I used some to make two Xmas cards. I guess I did it because I was in the mood for it and I'm sure when the time arrives I would be too busy (or lazy) anyway^^'
