13 things I think are worth it. As someone that's so, like, I'm so tired of researching before buying something. Number one, gym membership. Number two, e-reader. Any kind of reader, actually, that will let you download and read ebooks. So this is my Kindle. I got this in 2018 and I've already read more than 100 books on this device. Number three, electric toothbrush and water flosser. Very good investment for your oral care. Number four, Google Photos subscription. I'm not a fan of iCloud, so Google Photos subscription. Next, Owndays glasses, which I'm wearing right now. I've had these glasses for three years now and anytime, pwede kang pumunta sa any Owndays branch para ipa-linis siya, if kaya, pwede tanggalin yung scratches for free. Number six, a really good sunscreen. Mine is from Juhoson. Number seven, a high-quality mattress. What we're using now is from Uratex, but when I was living alone, I was sent an Emma Diamond hybrid mattress, which is also really good. I think lalo na if late 20s ka na or early 30s, you really need a good mattress for your back. Number eight, pest control service. Sa condo niyo or sa bahay niyo. We do this every two months or every three months. Hindi mo makikita any ipis, maliliit na insects sa bahay namin because of this service. Number nine, nano precision brow tattoo. So, ito yung brow ko, wala akong makeup, ganito siya pagka-gising ko. Nakana-nano precision brow tattoo ako kasi one, I'm not good at makeup, tamad ako mag makeup, and sobrang nipis ng natural kilay ko. Number 10, Sandisk/Kingston SSD. So, itong dalawa, these are from Kingston. Yung red is 2 TB, yung black naman is 1 TB. Yung Sandisk ko, this is 1 TB. It's really a good investment for editing, for storage. Number 11, Sihoo ergonomic chair. If work from home ka, tapos 8 hours kang nagtatrabaho, an ergonomic chair is really beneficial for your back. I was actually debating if ito yung ilalagay ko or a standing desk. But for me, if pipili ka sa dalawa, mas okay yung ergonomic chair. Number 12, Muji gel ink pen 0.38. Ito yung favorite pen ko for journaling, for writing to-do lists and everything. Lastly, number 13, espresso machine or any home brewing method. Kasi I really think 200+ na coffee or take-out coffee delivery is not worth it. So for me, worth it talaga mag-invest sa any machine that will let you make good coffee at home. That's it.
