Today was a crazy day. Went out to so many places until i forgot to do so many things like use my book vouchers and visit certain places.
It is really really hard to give away something that you like very much. But the thought that somebody else will appreciate it better makes it easier on the mind.
I have 2 things to buy. Both cost a bomb. Both are also rare. They both mean a lot to me but 1 more so than the other. I think if i really have to, i will buy both even though it incurs the ire of my parents. But if i only have to choose one, it will definitely not be that one. Cos sometimes giving is better than receiving. And a joke might have been carried too far and i feel bad about it. And worse of all, the joke is on me. I know that somebody will far better appreciate A as compared to B. There is absolutely no way i can deny that. Even as much as i want B, i think i will get A. If i have a fate with B, the means of which i can procure it will occur soon enough. But i have decided to get A. As for C and D, C is no point getting. It looks normal and too big. D is highly unrealistic but nice. That will also depend on fate i guess. I would like to thank the person up there for the many blessing he has bestowed upon me. One of which is A.
Spent my money wisely for the first time in this year. I didn't overspend as in i didn't buy anything that has a price tag of 3 figures. all the price tags were on the right side of 25. The lower side. I feel happy about it. And best of all, i spent them really wisely. I bought stuff that can be used for clinicals. Yay! I am happy with my purchases. It is for CNY.
Got a present from my friend. So kind of him to give me something that i requested. I didn't expect it at all. What a surprise. Generosity is rare these days, as is a good word and integrity is barely existent amongst people whom you know well.
I think i am quite silly, to be generous when other people are not. Well, i thought about this matter and decided. If i were to feel that i should not dip into my pocket deep enough because other people are unwilling to li3 shang4 wang3 lai2 then i would be taking the wrong step. Cause i would rather be generous and give, than to follow the crowd and stinge. Not that stinge-ing is wrong but sometimes, amount does matter. Although i must add, thought takes a huge huge precedence. Nothing personal.
