I think I have shopping fever. No no...not the kind that makes you wanna shop non stop. It's actually quite the opposite.

I consider myself as an avid shopper. Swipe this swipe that. Gosh.. why did they even invented credit cards anyway. It's a tiny plastic that does wonder..hehehe... It's not like I buy some important stuff. I buy unnecessary things like lotions that I don't need, soap that I bought just because it was on sale, lipsticks....tooooons of stuff. It was exciting at the mall, but when I got home, it was like, "What the hell did I do?" and I regret my action when I look at the receipt.

But then a miracle happens.

I went to the mall last week and BOOM!!! my appetite of shopping is gone. I walked in to GAP and walked out 3 minutes later. I walked in to Forever 21 and walked around and around thinking, "Do I need this? Do I need that?" and walked out with nothing. Hmmm....interesting.....

Why a sudden change?

The answer is simple. I have finally matured!!!! :P yeahhhh right...

You see, I have learned to appreciate money because I now work in a restaurant as a waitress. I get 3 dollars tip here.... 10 dollars tip there... and finally I have learned to appreciate money.

"Money doesn't grow on trees," they say.


It's true. It doesn't.

I am no longer a shopping queen. I've proudly given that tittle away.

I'm patting myself in the back :D

I have the same problem when it comes to shopping, so I was so proud of myself when managing to get out of Zara and Mango two weeks ago without bringing anything in spite of 70 % discount they gave !!
Yaaaaay !!

Yes the did, occasionally give up to 70% (REAL) discount and after being "robbed" last summer sale, managing to skip this one is a particular pride for me.
