Day 51 of the 60DWCC - Another Round of Shopping for CNY Goodies

Today is a pretty routine day. Apart from me tying up some loose ends from the spring cleaning done a couple of days ago, there isn't much thing to write about.

As for evening time, after sending RK to his tuition class, THL and I made another trip down to the nearby central to check out more CNY goodies. We were also trying to get a new dustbin for the kitchen too, but too bad we did not see any that suits our need and taste. :)

Although we have declared that we have enough CNY goodies already since we do not really have that many visitors to our house during CNY period, we still ended up getting a few more - just in case. :)

The rest of the evening was spent watch the last episode of the TV drama from Channel U namely Served Hot.

Daily Afterthoughts:

Wow...9 more days and the 60 Days Without Car Challenge will officially ends. Will we get another car soon after that? Well, while the temptation to quickly grab another car is there, much considerations have to be taken this time round. Moreover we are still keen in waiting for MAS's latest ruling on car loan and percentage to be loaned to come out. So while waiting for that, we might go browse around for a few models that we are earmarked so far.

And who knows, we might just grab another one if the bargain is superbly good. :)

Day 44 of the 60DWCC - Spring Cleaning Kickstarted

After my morning run, I decided to postpone my daily work till afternoon and kick-start the spring cleaning activity in the morning. This is mainly to avoid having RK around in the house when I am clearing unwanted stuff away.

After 5 hours of hard work, I managed to clear and clean up the kitchen dining area and it is not cleared of unwanted junks and is sparkling clean. :)

I resumed my work after I washed up. RK came home at 1pm and he was surprised that I was able to clean up the dinning area of the kitchen when he was not around.

After our dinner, THL and I took a bus down to a nearby central after sending RK off to his tuition class. We bought some CNY goodies and 2 sets of Korean DVDs. After that, we took a bus home and fetch RK home.

Daily Afterthoughts:

I never knew it was so tough when it comes to making a decision to throw away unwanted stuff that lingers around the house. Besides being emotionally attached to those junks, I believe it is also because we do not want to throw away things that we think we may need it in the future (which usual never happen).

Clearing away junks is a lot easier when there is no one in the house to challenge my every decision to throw away junks that have not been used for a long time. Just think about it, if that piece of junk is already lying there for the past one year, there is very slim chance that we will ever need it again, no?
