Online Shopping

The past few weeks have been really busy. I've been working hard in the office, drinking hard in bars, and shopping hard online. Literally stressed out right now from all the 'hardness'. (LOL) I'm addicted to online shopping. Not only shopping, but ONLINE SHOPPING. There. I said it. I've admitted it!

To all you people out there who shops online, watch out! You may think you're getting a great bargain going through all the online boutiques who promises you great quality, cheap prices and excellent services! They may be right, but what they didn't tell is, that you'll be HOOKED! Forever.

You won't stop spending hours after hours of browsing shops after shops, constantly screaming in your mind, "OMG!! I want THAT!", "I HAVE to have this, if not, I'll just DIE!!" or even the typical, "This is SO cheap, even though i don't really like it / can't fit into it, it's too cheap not to get it. I just have to get it, I'll wear it eventually / even if I have to lose like 20 pounds to fit into it."

Then the buying starts, but it NEVER stops! It's like a very natural thing to do when you're online, the first few things you'd do is check out the 'latest arrival' on your favourite online shops. And when you're not browsing for clothes online, you're constantly thinking and wondering if they have uploaded more clothes, and worrying if by the time you went online to check, the clothes would all be sold out coz it was too awesome not to be bought.

I've spent about RM500 on shopping, more than half of it on online shopping in less than 2 months. I kid you not. Am I feeling guilty? NO. Am I feeling happy about it? NO. I'm just stressed. When I'm stressed, I shop. A lot. When other people are stressed, they exercise, or clean the car, or listen to music, or blog..but me? When I'm stressed, I feel I need to spend money. Not good.
