- Makeup
Already, I don't seem to need to buy or spend more now. Maybe being in Canada has made me realized I can survive on that number of clothes. I missed my stash of makeup when I was there (even though I brought along a traincase full) but I could still pare it down to items that I will use more often. Actually those items which I hardly use are from other swaps. Lol.
Books
I try not to buy books as I know I would face this problem. No place to store them after a while. But after several years of random buying, the books have started to accummulate again. I had to give away lots when moving to Singapore from Canada 9 years ago. I usually try to rent books but sometimes I just had to buy as either they are not available at the rental bookstore or I was at the airport departure hall.
