~**~




Helloo world! =) Someone is in a really good mood. (touches wood). The dark clouds have been blown away and the sun in my soul has once again risen. I think it has to do with the long awaited retail therapy. You see, I am notoriously known to be a 'kanjoos' translated to mean stingy in Malayalam. A trait I can proudly say was inherited by my father. Yes, I am proud of it. I dislike spending money because I always fear not having enough to save for the near future and would always postpone buying stuffs till I have no choice but to do so. I buy things at one go and then scrimp for months before I splurge again - for necessities. I call it therapy.

Yesterday was the first after 6 months of monetary sabbath. I let myself spend to my hearts content with no form of mental calculations on the side. Got myself 2 pairs of sandals, 2 tops and restocked on my eyeliner and blusher. Yes, so few items but too me, they were a lot.

I honestly don't know if this attitude of mine is healthy but I just like being a squirrel at times. Money is security to me. Oops! haha..but isn't it somewhat true for all of us?

Life's experiences teaches us a lot.

I am a forward planner. I need to know what lies ahead before attempting the now.I want to make sure that when I finally have a family of my own, my children have nothing but the best set out for them. Nothing less. Not that everything will come easy for them but they do not have to be adults when they should be children. Know what I mean? Yea, am a little too young to think too far but once again, I am just being me. The thinker. ;)

Ok, I am kind of side tracking now. I meant to talk about shopping actually. haha..hmm..so yup, in short, I got to shop for myself and did a little for my 2 sissys so all in all, it was some money well spent.

When women are depressed, they eat or go shopping. Men invade another country. It's a whole different way of thinking. ~Elayne Boosler
