Mirror Selfie

Oh the random things that I buy on Taobao. Everyday the receptionist at my company would send me a Skype message telling me that I have (yet another) package delivered to the office. As much as I'm ashamed that she knows how much I shop each week/month, turns out to her I'm far from the worst among my digital-savvy co-workers.

I don't know - I just thought I should probably document my purchases, so that I could reflect on it and be a better financial planner in the future, ha ha. And so that I could match all the small spendings that appear on my monthly bank statement (seriously I get very confuse when I see them).

Here's the first documentation: a Kanon iPhone 6 plastic hard-case in dark green that says "YOU LOOK AWESOME TODAY" backwards. Why you ask? So that it'd look awesome when you take a selfie in front of the mirror :D cheesy yes, whatever, it looks awesome and it costs me about RMB 35. (ca. $5)

It's a knock-off for sure, because I think the real deal will cost you around $15 to $20, but after breaking my Agnes B. case just after 6 months, I've made decision to never buy an expensive iPhone case ever again. In the end, that's what it's for, to protect your already expensive phone during drunken Friday evenings.
