New Year, New Goals

I am really not into resolutions at the beginning of the year.  I find them corny.  However, recently, I learned the importance of setting goals.  I listed down goals I wanted to achieve for 2021 and I am so relieved that I achieved most of them.  So, yeah, I am more into goal-setting.

This afternoon, my husband and I had a one-on-one to set our family goals.  We haven't done so in the past.  I realized that we are so aligned that we have the same priorities and goals for our family.  I am so grateful to have a partner in life who has the same priorities as me.  I was worried that I had to convince him about some plans I had in mind.  I am also relieved that he hasn't forgotten to dream and yearn for better things for himself and for our family. 

We've planned our major expenses for the year.  We've figured out how to fund our business ventures too.  If everything pans out, hopefully, we'll be able to move on to our long term projects.  I am excited that we are working towards a common goal.  More importantly, I am grateful to have a husband who is a willing partner.  It will make achieving these goals a lot easier.

We've heard about the usual reseller shops that house these luxury brands.  The one I can remember now is Daikokuya. I must've visited almost all reseller shops I've seen on the road.  I've noticed that these shops carry the top 3 popular ones:  Hermes, Chanel and Louis Vuitton.  There still are several pieces of Balenciaga, Valentino, Tory Burch, Celine, Gucci and Michael Kors but not as abundant as the top 3.  I guess what carries the most value are the three popular ones. If you are looking for cheap designer bags, I suggest checking out Don Quixote.  You will usually find on the topmost floors on Donki.  I think this is the one in Shinjuku. I am not so sure. You find them arranged like this or inside locked glass cabinets.  I'm sure the artisans who made these bags will tu...
