materialism in this economy?
Apr. 8th, 2025 05:41 pmyeah. anyway
specific desires: modretro x koss porta pro in volt, in the grid notebook, seche vite fast dry top coat, edith edwardian boots, chanel le vernis ballerina, dove pink beauty bar, steel tiffin stainless steel lunch box large
undiscovered desires: lace cami undershirts, shoe organizer, vacuum cleaner, step-activation stainless steel trash can, wall rack fixture, double-sided wall-mount sticky-tabs, driving gloves, rings, genuine leather belts in dark brown + black that fit, patterned thick fabric headbands, spat style heels, card wallet, power bank, binders and folders that don't get damaged easily, oven mitts, velvet exterior jewelry box, dishwashing gloves, desk
desires of the mouth: i still want kbbq so bad it's actually not funny anymore... but who has the money? you would think that with recent family reunion and everything i would have eaten well but i was born in one of those rare families where no one really cooks well ... myself included ... but i really~~~ want kbbq...
desires that must pass: i really want a file cabinet LOL but where would i store one? i don't think i would even have enough to warrant the kind that i want (one of the tall filing cabinets) but i think about it often nowadays...
on last month's desires: i bought the floral parchment journal ... and i heard that the dr. g red blemish soothing cream isn't actually good for redness, so i'm no longer interested in it ... and my desire for the nyota blindbox and the guerlain lipstick has gone down. but everything else is basically the same
recently i've been using the roundlab moisturizer and unfortunately it's pretty good. i say unfortunately because it's also pretty expensive... i think the small size (discounted) for me was $22 or some such? which is a lot considering that's like, not a lot of product ... but i really like it; it has a thicker texture than the dynasty cream from boj and a thicker one than the cosrx propolis moisturizer, but it applies pretty thinly/evenly and is absorbed easily into my skin. i might buy again despite everything but considering the price increase that's sure to come i'm hemming and hawing my way through it...
recently i've reignited my interest in jewelry but instead of earrings it's rings and bracelets. in terms of fashion my taste is pretty much the same as last month ... i think i need to put down the more overt sailor themes though because i don't look good in them ... but i keep on getting attracted to them whenever i see them in person. hopefully i can finish the cleaning out i want to do by july so i can reconsider the way i've kept things and start to focus on home decoration more ... but these are the dreams of those who are not consistently employed ...
been falling behind a lot on writing recently which is bad because i litr just bought journals ... but it's fine everything's fine. need to get a lot of my backlog done and it will be done trust and believe ... my new pens are nice but i do think 0.5 is too thin now. pens should only be 0.7 and up imo ... i've also discovered an old trove of crayons from when i was in elementary school, and i've been thinking about trying to draw or something in order to use them up, it seems wasteful otherwise and they're too small/broken to gift to other people in good conscience
( post-april wishlist )
