when do I get my adult certificate?
Many good things this month! First, my credit score is doing super well! I checked it on leap year day but forgot to include it in my February review. What am I going to do with it? Apply for a mortgage for a shoebox in Toronto lol. For reals tho, no plans to use it…
Year of the Dragon is off to a strong start! Spendings Report: $3,412 I’m gonna be honest, it’s Chinese New Year with my sister finally being able to visit me in China after covid so I spent without looking or thinking. Food, hotels, red pocket money, I did it all. We went to multiple facials…
Happy (almost) Year of the Dragon, everyone! Oops forgot to hit publish before I went on vacation. It’s been an awesome start to 2024 so here’s to more happy days 🙂 Spendings Report: $3,458 This month my sister visited me for two and a half weeks during the festive period for Chinese New Year and…

Every penny spent was worth it. September has been such a great and fulfilling month for me; settling into a new school, getting together with friends, making this apartment into a home, and finding hidden gems around the neighbourhood. Spendings Report: $2,738 The biggest cost was a week-long trip to Shanghai to see a friend…
I’m nesting! Spendings Report: $3, 541 It’s furnishing month! I moved into the new apartment before the summer and got about half of the much-needed things in such as a deep clean and basic bedding.
