Ohhhh Retail Therapy!

A very close friend gifted me this tee ages back to prove a point. Thanks Jungle Jane:)

Wow what wonders retail therapy can do to you. While Ro was out London Looping with his buddies, i crawled out of bed at 12pm, lazed around, watched a few episodes of Family Guy and then headed out to the mall nearby and shopped:)
Tried on so many clothes and shoes but only bought a nice lil summer dress (which i don know when I'll be able to wear, considering the crappy weather). Have noted a few things I'd like to come back and buy though. Then i picked up a whole lot of cereals so i can start this new diet. Remember i told you about the mixed feelings..yeah this is all part of that..cos i was initially following the 'low GI diet' recipe book (which is now neatly stashed away in a corner) and eating healthy, but now have decided to go completely opposite by doing the Kellogg's Special K 'Slimmer for Summer' Challenge. Yes i am not able to make up my mind about anything..Like on Sunday when Ro asked me what I wanted do.. and i just stared into space trying to actually think 'WHAT THE HELL I WANTED TO DO.' This is how the conversation went:
Me: I don't know. 
Ro: So shall i then decide what to do? I nodded. Lets go to Hyde Park and....' Didn't complete the sentence..
Me:...oh you don't want to do anything i like, you are so selfish. Pout! 
Ro: Nish i just asked you what you wanted to do and you didn't have anything on your mind..and that's why i said lets do this. BRAT!
Me: Whatever! Pout, pout. (I didn't get anything concrete to argue about and a smile accidentally escaped. And then i couldn't control the fact that i was being such a pain and how stupid i sounded). I agreed finally, not to take part in the rollerblading expedition, but to just watch.
We ultimately didn't go to Hyde Park cos Ro's friends couldn't make it. Dinner out and a movie was the next best thing, and so we did just that. 

The weekend was not as bad as i thought it would be. I start my new diet today and wonder how long that's gonna last.

  5. I often look up to the sky and ask: " God, do we NEED PMS too?" Why? Why? Do we not have enuf problems? :D
    But I can swear on the fact that shopping is therapeutic. Just being in a store gives me a high. These days, clearly out of desperation, I even do grocery shopping, in batches so that I feel that I am shopping. For something, anything!
