- SHOPPING FOR HAPPINESS -
I never believed in the idea of retail therapy. I always thought that money can't buy you happiness and shopping will not make you any happier than you are. Boy was I wrong.
So the story goes. I went shopping yesterday all by myself. It is really rather exciting when you have to make the decisions all ny yourself. When you have your girl friends there with you, it is so different. They make comments, choose the best looking clothes for you and is really just there to shop for themselves too.
I cannot count the number of times I had to put back the dress or shirt I fancied because one of them said that it is too expensive or not suitable for me. Well, this time, I called the shots and decided for myself and guess what, I ENJOYED it!
Hee. I would not have gone shopping myself if not because I was in a sucky mood but as I made my rounds, looking for clothes, shoes and makeup, I feel my spirits start to lift. So each time I spent, I found a bit happiness and needless to say, I was greatly satisfied at the end of the day.
Well, I know such happiness is temporary but guess that I need to pamper myself at times. And spending a bit of money is ok?
Gotta look at all my reciepts. I have not touched them since yesterday. I wonder if I spent alot? Hmm..
