Living in a limited spaced condo unit, I have embraced the minimalist lifestyle.
Before 2015 ended, I have started de-cluttering my room and gave out all of the stuff I don’t need and want. I started with the press giveaways I got which included tumblers, shirts , pens and notebooks that I gave away to our condo guards and staff last Christmas.
- The makeup items , eco bags, and skin care products that I have too many off and I don’t want to reach its expiration date , I gave away to my relatives who took time to visit.
- While the baby stuff like skin care products, milk, toys, and clothes and diapers I gave away to charities.
- Old clothes that I have not worn over a year were sent as donations to fire victims who live in my City, there was about 3 big fire that happened just before Christmas.
- I sold tech gadgets and gizmos to my online friends on Facebook as I only need a few of them for my personal use, we can all use additional funds, being liquid is more better than stock-up with items you won’t be able to use.
- I have let go of past hurt and forgave people who did me wrong , I leave it to the divine to give me and them what they deserve.
- I also started eating healthy, one of my goals is to stay fit to fit in a bikini (charot!)
- And to avoid traffic stress and blog backlogs I cannot keep up with, I have started to pick my events and try as much as possible not attend Friday events or event scheduled on a Friday rush hour and say no to events that is too far from me (can’t provide service venicle) or events I don’t really feel like going because it does not suit my blog character or things I like to blog about.
- Plus I have removed all unnecessary blog badges and links in my blog . I want my blog simple and light with less noise.
With all those things I did before the year ended I have felt my life is #LightandSweet , in fact it is lighter and sweeter.
Just like The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf Vanila Almond latte and ice blended drink. A delicious combination of the brand’s signature rich espresso, French Deluxe vanilla, and almond sauce. Perfect for a quiet reflective moment in the cafe or intimate relaxed catch up with friends. You may try this #LightandSweet beverage at any CBTL branches in the country. Try it and be delighted.
How about you, how do you plan to live #lightandsweet this 2016. Share us your story and use the #LightandSweet hashtag as well, tag @CBTLPH on Instagram or like The Cofee Bean and Tea Leaf Philippines on Facebook.
