NY's Resolution FAIL

This is a serious fail.  It's only been 2 months since the year started and I broke 2 of my NY's resolution - go to the gym often and blog weekly.  In my defense, I am very busy with work.  I recently got promoted to Trainee Merchandiser and it is draining me.  In my 1 month's training, I cried twice.  Both time out of exhaustion.  The role is overwhelming and my emotions erratic from lack of sleep, hunger and constant pressure from my superiors and workmates(trying to act like the boss).  People told me to stop taking sh*t from them but I am too tired to even think about arguing.  Gladly I found 2 peers who understand the pressure of work whom I can speak with on a regular basis and won't label me as a whiny b*tch.  :)

I found marriage surprisingly easy.  The key is to work as a team.  Luke is a very supportive and caring husband.  I cringe when people say, "he's my rock" but I understood what it meant now.  He would cook when I can't and even prepare left over dinner for my lunch.  He is definitely neat.  Our kitchen is always clean, I blame his addiction to cleaning products.  He supports my goals in life and prioritises my happiness.  We both love to save and get discounts.  I found my match.  This story will probably better illustrate my our KAKURIPUTAN.

As everyone know, I am very tight fisted.  I know, it is not really obvious as I have strong fixation on designer brands.  I love my expensive handbags and now, designer collaborations.  I have been buying weekly on a heavily discounted price since the January sales and still dreaming about owning countless designer bags.  Now back to the story, last week was Valentine's day.  I don't normally like celebrating it but since I am happily married, I gave in to the marketing scheme.  :P  Luke and I wanted a chilled night so we went to my favourite pasta joint and watched the film that I was dying to see.  BUT not before I found the right printable discount voucher.  Hahaha.  It saved us a good 20% on our meal.  Now, I don't recommend this to anyone on their first date.  This comes with familiarity.  Recession definitely brought the resourcefulness in us.  I almost always don't have to pay full price on my planned meals or shopping.  :)

Can't wait for my week off in 4 weeks time and my second salary in 8 days.  How's everyone?  :)
