(no subject)

I have a confession. I think I have a problem. I call it the 'Alice Cullen' syndrome (Quick! Call shoppaholics anonymous!). Problem being, Alice Cullen is fictional and I'm not her. Therefore, it is not feasible for me to continue spending like I have been as:
(1) I do not have centuries worth of accumulated wealth to draw upon.
(2) I do not have the uncanny and dead useful gift of being able to predict the stockmarket.

Damn.
Guess that means I'll have to try and learn how to control myself.
Not easy considering my credit card limit got upped and I have the excuse of requiring a whole wardrobe for university. Note the absence of 'new' in that sentence. Explanation; I don't have a complete wardrobe as my seven night working for the family business requires me to be in uniform. So, when I was but a wee school student, it was from one uniform to another (then later to PJs), which explains my enthusiasm for this whole shopping concept.

I was going to spam you with my purchases, however I've decided to wait until they were all in my posession. Then I shall unleash my image heavy, bankrupting splurge to end all splurges.
I'll admit now that my weakness is designer denim, if you have not already noticed. Three pairs this year, plus the Nudies that I just ordered not ten minutes ago. *facepalm* Alright, so not much in comparison to the fanatics at Authentic Forum, but it's a start (and boy, what a start. I'm salivating at the prospects already.) Plus, give me a break. It is Summer here, and have I bought myself any bottoms other than jeans? I think not. I have really lost all my sense (in every meaning -- ha! A bad pun. See what I mean?)

I swear I had other stuff of relative importance to announce, but I have forgotten between shopping and debt, denim and-- oh! Pondering whether my wisdom teeth are announcing their arrival, which I admit to being scared of. Not the surgery, as I'm opting for anaesthetia, but the pain and stitches, and getting said stitches removed... How did I almost forget that? That and the fact there are nine days to go until UAIs are announced, which makes me want to crawl into a corner, hugging myself into a little ball and scream for it to be over, or rather under, as I'd rather not face the music, thank you very much (or then again, rather over, over my desired marks target that is, but I cannot see that happening).

See why I'd rather immerse myself in material items?

P.S. [livejournal.com profile] tekno_tyr, did you too, receive a school newsletter in the mail? As I did, even though, you know, I'm not enrolled, let alone part of that place anymore... *facepalm* Nevermind, you're brother... so of course. Irrelevant.

P.P.S. [livejournal.com profile] seasonstocking & me!

Material belongings are fun. Plus they make you feel good.

Until buyer's remorse or your bank statement arrives, whichever comes first...

Love your icon! ♥

Buyer's remorse is laaaahme. :(

Haha which one was it? O_o

Lol I dont think we did get a whatsit. A newsletter (the word escaped me, even though I read it like 20 seconds ago).

Seriously. One day. We'll be RICH.

I am so materialistic. I never thought I'd end up like this. But I want to have nice things. I want to have nice clothes, nice computers, nice laptops, nice internets with lots of download limits. That's the only reason I want a good job anymore lol. The money. Seriously, I'm such a bad person.

I CANT WAIT TO BREAK OUR BABIES IN, OMG!!1111!!!1111!!!!1SHIFTONE.

I'm still not sure how I want mine to look. IT'LL BE FUN THO, OMG.

LOL we better be rich one day. Otherwise, I'm screwed kthx.

I never thought I'd end up like-- wait. I kind of did. I've always wanted a good job. Good job equating to high paying job in my mind. I think I was kind of raised that way. I mean, well, to get a decent paying job. Plus, the fact that I was kind of spoiled until I moved to Sydney... Just a logical conclusion, don't you think?

:D

The shopping, denim obsessing, wisdom teething or those dreaded three letters?

[identity profile] missski.livejournal.com 2007-12-11 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
Don't worry, shan't be long 'til I run out of money. And I will probably calm down after the silly season with all it's hell before hand.

[identity profile] junalele.livejournal.com 2007-12-11 08:54 am (UTC)(link)
Heh. Sounds to me as if you are just packing accumulated shopping sprees of the last years into one. Still - maybe try not to make the credit card explode?

And wisdom teeth. It's really not that bad. I had mine removed two at a time and there was no real pain. Not after anaestesia had worn off, not with the stitches. It was just annoying not to be able to eat normally but yeah. The important thing - do find yourself a good dentist. My normal dentist had sent me to a surgeon who also does reconstructive surgery (is that the word?).

[identity profile] missski.livejournal.com 2007-12-11 11:23 am (UTC)(link)
LOL I shall try my best. And I do like your view of it. It makes it sound a lot less sinful haha! But yes, the credit card thing is okay. It's more like I'm draining my life savings (which wasn't much anyway) to feed it XD

I really do appreciate your advice and experience, as I've never had good dental experiences and have always been a wimp with pain and gore (yes, stitches count as gore if you're me XD).
My parents are friends with the dentist in charge, who's apparently really good and very in demand. However, he's gone on his Christmas holidays and won't get back until January 7th (and even then he's booked up until February, but that doesn't matter as my parents can pull some strings). So, I have to decide whether to go with another dentist that I don't know, or wait for him to come back :/

[identity profile] junalele.livejournal.com 2007-12-11 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
It is a lot less sinful. I think you totally deserve to indulge with the beginning of uni and all. Yep.

Thank God, I have great teeth so the wisdom teeth thing was the only time I had real problems in that area. Puh.
And about waiting - You're not actually in pain right now, are you? Because if you're not, I would wait. Better take the dentist who you know will be good.

well if you put it like this, that you didn't have a wardrobe so maybe when you'll buy yourself a new wardrobe you'll need to think about how to stop the shopping addiction or and it's much more easier, to make yourself a list (i.g 10 shirts, 5 denims etc, etc...)
Nudie Jeans is a brand right?!

[identity profile] jun-ko.livejournal.com 2007-12-11 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm, I'm 19 now and I STILL haven't got my wisdom teeth. I hope they never come. My friend had her removed two summers ago and her face was so swollen for days. @_x;; If I ever look like that, I'm locking myself in my bedroom and wrapping my head up so Patrick couldn't see me. ^o^;; Poor Leanne. We called her squirrel-face for those painful few days...

you should go over to the US and buy your heart xDD
lots of people tell me how it's so cheap hahah xDD
*sighs* :(

[identity profile] sexyjohnlennon.livejournal.com 2007-12-11 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Yussss, you must post pics of your purchases! 'Cause you know that I cant wait to see. :D

Also, omfg. Wisdom teeth. Only my bottom ones are starting to peek from the gums. And yeah, Im scared shitless to get them yanked out. Ive never been put under for any sort of surgery, so, yikes on that. Plus someone told me that its really quick and they dont put you under - they just crack the molars with tiny chisels and hammers (what is this, mini mining for diamonds and sapphires?!) and then pick them out in pieces with like tweezers or something. I was like, WHAT THE FUCKERY IS THAT SHIT. So yeah. Forget that, I would -request- the aesthetic.

ah, wouldn't it be nice to be Alice Cullen? i'd use that money to buy: everything thing the Milan Store offers, tickets to Italy and a Milan game, and holiday gifts for all my friends, since i'm broke.

woah, it's summer there? it took me a while to understand that...here it is winter which means there will soon be snow = no school = sleep = happiness.

btw, do you have a job?
