2026/04/07: February

February was a month of high spending

festive spending could be so overwhelming

no matter how much I was cutting down on

non-essentials, impulse purchase and self-indulgence

look here’s your long list of must-spends

*

but thank goodness

Lunar New Year was in mid February this year

so there was a good buffering month in January

half of the stuff was bought in back then

*

and had more time to dig cash all over the house

including the mouse holes where Jerry lives

to pack them in Angpao

*

but “let’s think about this after Lunar New Year”

noooo it was a 28-day

saying goodbye to February

with a significant gap between income vs spending

in short with a burnt hole in the pocket

*

with no debt?

okay here’s your pat on the shoulder

and did you have a good time during the season?

yes definitely
