shabu shabu
Last night, my last meal at home, my mom made for us shabu shabu. I had no idea how simple it is to make! This was that last good meal I will have for a while, as I am going to try and stop (or at least dial down) the gluttonous side of me this year.
Sitting at work, depressed I'm no longer on break, wishing I could have more shabu shabu now!
broke.
I know I shouldn't spend any money, aka SHOPPING. My new year's resolution is to save more, spend less. I spoke with a friend this past Sunday who is currently a freelance lawyer assisting the elderly and non-native speakers file bankruptcy forms and etc. She was telling me about these people who were in their 60s, hundreds of thousand of dollars in debt and have no idea what to do anymore.
I am part of the fortunate few, to have a job right out of school. I should take this opportunity to start saving for the future, possibly a future home?
I, however, am a shopaholic. Not in the sense that I squalor all my money on brand-name clothes and accessories, but in the sense that I don't mind spending a significant portion of my hard-earned money on lavish meals and unnecessary items (ie. the expensive box of white strips I thought "I NEED, NOW!" which have been gathering dust.. I think somewhere under my laundry in the hidden corners of my closet?).
It's going to be a difficult feat, attempting to put away a large portion of my earnings into saving, but knowing the statistics of the American public, I feel this is necessary. No one argues against the necessity of preventative care when it comes to health... shouldn't my financial health be the same?
Still... lusting is such a large part of my being. PLUS, I figure I am in need of a "good" work tote?
