Shop-oholic

Feeling... like eating some chocolate
Happiness of the day: stayed completely awake in my digital signal processing class...must be the coffee!
Event of the week: 4 ushering assignments this week. [One down!]

I have a problem....I have this incredible itch to go shopping. argh.

Obviously that's not a good thing, cos I'm not quite the richest girl on earth right now, my bank balance doesn't look very good, and frankly, I don't have time to shop either. I have better things to do! Usually having the shopping itch is not that big a deal for me, cos besides being a spendthrift, I am also incredibly lazy, which means that as long as my inertia prevents me from actually going to the mall, I'm fine.

This is where the problem is now....see, I can now shop at home. All those brands that I like, GAP, Old Navy, Esprit..they all have online stores! Argh! It's so easy for me to just click, click and click, bham, I'm one of GAP's valued patrons. Goodness me...

Usually I get really good stuff online, because it takes quite a lot to impress me, and some clothes don't look quite that good flat and 2D on the screen. So I actually don't regret most of my purchases. But hell, the problem doesn't lie with me getting lousy things..it lies with me buying too many things. While shopping at the mall, my feet get tired, my back started to ache if I shop too much. But shopping online is so easy, it's addictive, almost. I don't want to check my credit card bills yet, because I'll dread seeing how much money I've thrown into these online stores. Argh!

One solution I can think of now is to disable all pictures on my web browser, so I can't see those pictures of pretty spring clothes in pretty colours and therefore I won't have the urge to shop.

I know this sounds like frivolous cindy talking, not quite the most important sounding thing right now. Shopping? duh..girls will always be girls.....but hey, this can be serious. I know that if I let this urge of mind persist, and let my money just flow like this, soon the shopping problem will become an actual survival one. It won't be pretty. I refuse to work 2 jobs again...argh...though I like my new clothes...
