  1. A new handbag. Trust me. Just do it. Get that bag you always wanted. It’s lifeeeeeee changingggggg

  2. Two new books! One book about the colonisation of and missionary work on Papua New Guinea and the other book about the influence of social media on our vocabulary.

  3. A new Tracking device for my cardio. I do it every second day. So I bought myself a Garmin Lily 2. Because it was so beautiful and I love beautiful things that are really useful ♡

  4. A vacation! I just went through a breakup and was with someone who didn’t want to travel so the first thing I did when we broke up was booked a trip.

  5. Myfitnesspal’s meal planning subscription. I’ve always struggled with eating healthy, not even just for weightloss but for money’s sake because I often just default to ordering out because I never know what to eat. The last 3 weeks have been very nice not having to think about what’s for any given meal and knowing that I’ll be close to my protein and calorie goals each day with what they’ve given me.

  6. I bought myself tickets, a fancy floofy dress and a hotel room to attend an event I’ve always wanted to go to. The Labyrinth of Jareth Masquerade. I could never get my friend group to want to go so I decided to just seize the moment and go by myself this year.

  7. I treated myself to a day at the salon. Never been to a salon to get my hair professionally dyed, washed or styled before so it was quite the treat to myself. I regret nothing 🥰

  8. A trip alone (5,5 hour drive) to a weekend I’m Uppsala, Sweden for Uppsala reggae festival. I enjoyed, and even met some long time SoMe-friends!

  9. I have recently come off a huge stretch of work (lots of hours for ~3 months), and I treated myself to a self-care trio: a facial, massage, and an optometrist appointment with new eyeglasses! The last time I got my eyes checked was 3 years ago, and it’s been quite literally years since I’ve had either a facial or massage! It felt really good, but incredibly expensive so it’s truly once in a lifetime! Also have given myself the gift of not checking my email/replying to work-related emails right away for this week!

  10. It’s really a gift for my husband, but also for me – front row UFC tickets!

  11. The Ninja Slushi machine! It’s been really warm where I live recently and our houses aren’t equipped for hot weather so it was an obvious choice 😂

  12. A girls trip to see Beyoncé in Vegas. I’m broke as hell this week but I have zero regrets and will absolutely do it again for the next tour.

  13. I just bought myself a Shark FlexStyle after thinking about it and the Dyson Airwrap for like 4 years.

  14. New nice tires for my car, and I’m gonna go see low cut Connie by myself

  15. A new pair of reading glasses. My old pair was scratched, but was still okay to use for at least a few more months.

    I had a string of pearls set in 14 k gold. This was an extravagance.

    Edited to add that I realize I sound like an old woman. I’m in my 30s!

  16. I bought a new Loungefly bag. More specifically the Nezuko Demon Slayer loungefly bag.
