now i DEFINITLY know why it's called 'guilty pleasures'...

...this always always occurs when i do some compulsive shopping:

Pleasure : in being spontaneous and purchasing something on the spot, no thinking at all.
Guilty
: that nagging feeling when the spontaneity lasts too long, and i end up shopping
more
then i can spare my budget on (dammit).

gah.
so this is what you get if you can't balance your priorities.
i mean, i'm usually not a shopper, in fact, i used to
not shop...but then i got a wee taste of it and BAM, before i knew it, i have fell into temptation *groans*.

last time i gave in was last Sunday. it went like so:
main plan :
- go swimming and eat cheap pasta with Saskia.ONLY.


executed plan : (pics menyusul.AGAIN)
- bought 2 discounted underwear
- bought One Piece manga #53
- swimming ticket that cost a crappy Rp.50.000,-.
dammit when did it get SO EXPENSIVE???

- bought 2 Pelikan pens
- ate alfredo pasta that costs only Rp.38.000, including 1 protein (chicken breast
SEABREG) and 3 types of veggie (mushroom,eggplants,and baby tomato yg SEABREG)+
garlic bread.

- bought a scarf on impulse.

end results:
i ended up spending on 4 more items then i was supposed to, dengan pembelaan utama sepanjang masa, "ah, kan cuma
sekali-sekali" and "ah, kan toh lo jarang shopping kan?"

blasted excuses.

alas, someday i WILL get rid of them!
