The shopaholic way

Shopping for some is a hobby and for some it's an addiction . I personally would put myself under the second category . First I had alot of pocket money .. so naturally I didn't know what to do with it . Now times have changed so much that I barely have lunch money :p

Some people might not like spending too much money .. especially on things one barely needs . That's a good habit , but sometimes you just have to spend that extra amount of money for something useless. Its a sort of detox for the soul . Forgetting the same old routine rules and having just a little bit of an adventure.
It feels nice to hold a shiny new shopping bag full of something you've splundered money on . The feel and smell of new clothes still smelling of the store you got them from . The shine of a trinket , the freshness of a fruit , the calories of an extra packet of sweets . The happiness is just endless . You feel alive , fresh , reincarnated even and at some rare times ,  motivated .

Most importantly its the feeling we get when we know we've done something for our own self .. something selfish that for once isn't harming anyone or anything . Something people cant judge you on. Buying something absolutely unnecessary is good sometimes . It helps to know that mostly we feel so trapped ,  sometimes due to circumstances , or due to relatives , friends or just the society in general , but buying something you've always wanted or you've always wanted to give to someone you love actually breaks us free of those invisible bars around us .
So it's nice to get up , grab your  credit cards or cash , get a ride to the mall and spend uselessly. 
Go give yourself a treat .. if for nothing else than for the simple reason that your bearing the puking roller coaster that life is .
Cheerio:)
