There are two types of neat freaks. One, there's the lysol-and-alcohol spraying kind, and second is the label and compartmentalize kind.
I'm the label and compartmentalize kind.

Labeling my boxes according to category. Gotta love Dymo!

You don't understand my happiness when we're shopping for house stuff. The sight of bright colored folders and clear plastic boxes is like a nice new fresh Hermes, Balenciaga or Givenchy purse to any bag maven.
I have tons of pouches and boxes that I hoard when we go to Muji, Make Room and Rustan's. I use them to store stuff from muesli to hairclips, nail polish to note pads. I'll die if I don't travel without my boxes. Last December before our wedding, I brought my whole dresser to Baguio:

Don't leave anything out! Bathroom essentials all stored in their own clear plastic boxes, for convenient traveling. |
Anyway, since I can't take my toiletree kit everywhere, I settle for my work stuff. These things I cannot leave home without.

My Monogrammed work bag. Gave these out to my bridesmaids for the wedding, and thought I'd get one for myself! It's canvas and sturdy and really pretty! |
|
It can hold my laptop, gadget accessory case, pencil case, Dymo, planner and document folder |
|
It is big enough to carry my file folders, too! |
|
another thing i love: my BUILT neoprene case. |
|
it's compact and can hold my hard drive, cables, chargers and gadget cleaners |
|
Of course, we've been doing a lot of research for the house we will be building, so I always carry Post-It page markers and a whole lot of pens for identifying pegs and taking down notes. |
|
And of course, my Moleskine planner. A year is not the same without it. :) The perfect size, the perfect format makes it the best planner for me. |
