I went to Paper Source today and bought these folders and folders with this design (can't find the actual thing on the site).

I have old folders I saved from my undergrad years, so I didn't need new folders, but these were cute. :mikihead: I wanted so many octopus and macaron stuff. :heart:

Those folders are really cute. I really love the octopus one. :lol:

I made a deposit for the first time since December, so I bought some things recently.
NET10 AT&T Compatible SIM Card
NET10 $50 Monthly Unlimited Airtime
Color Me Bright Bag
Pearl Petals Earrings
Gem and the Holo-glams Earrings

NET10: Even though I had tried Straight Talk, I'm not able to use my own phone because their SIM cards are only compatible with T-Mobile.
I don't get T-Mobile out here, but I had the AT&T SIM earlier this year and had really good service, so I'm going back to that. :lol:
ModCloth: I could've bought the bag by itself, but free shipping if I added two more items... :whistling: I needed new stud-like earrings, anyway.

The color me bright bag and gem and the holo-gram earrings are really cute.

I'd totally rock the earrings.

^^ The bag is really cute <3

ModCloth has a lot of cool things, but I've never ordered anything from it because most things are a little too pricey. There are good deals here and there in the sales section though. :lol: There are some really pretty clothes on that site, but I just don't see myself in them.

I know, I always have that "you can look, but you can't touch" feeling when I browse. :lol: I'm glad the bag was on sale, though.
They do have cute clothes, but I never order clothing from the internet cause I never know what the sizing is like.

There was a rummage sale at the Berkeley Buddhist Temple today, and I scored big time:

All this for only $21. No kidding.

The knickknacks in the bottom picture were in fact the most expensive items, accounting for $11 of the total. But they were just too cute to pass up!

I want to get a little plastic display box at the Japanese sundries shop in El Cerrito tomorrow, to protect the taiko drummer from dust. And if I'm not mistaken, the third Sunday of the month is when they have the used Japanese book sale out in front....

Nice! A few years ago, I went to a rummage sale at a Buddhist church in Pasadena, and came away with a box of VHS tapes with enka shows from the 80s (which I've been slowly transferring over to DVD).

Lucky guy! I wish I could find stuff like that on the lands I'm living on...
