It's funny how you can go round the world but end up coming back to square one, right where you left off not awhile ago.
Case in point - The contractors, after hacking about half the kitchen floor, hacked right back to the doorstep of the entrance to my home, and realized the leak was less than 20cm away from where they started digging. If only they had dug 20cm in that direction, they would have found that leak 3 weeks ago.
Case in point number 2 - I keep telling myself I do not need a coffee machine after spotting the sleekest black and aluminum Nespresso machine in Hong Kong 6 months ago, on my first marketing trip. I go everywhere, unable to put lingering wants to rest, and end up buying the coffee machine and 25 sleeves (of 10 capsules, ie 250 cups of coffee) in the same shop in Hong Kong's IFC mall where I first saw it.
A splurge definitely. But a splurge I've worked hard for this year. And anything that helps me wake up in the morning helps me work better too.
*rationalizes the exorbitant purchase well*

I start work tomorrow. Bring on the 2 and a half month countdown, baby!
Nothing can derail this conviction, ever.
