Other People's Weddings

I love other people's weddings because it's a great excuse to buy a new dress for the occasion. what a selfish yet entirely valid reason =)

I also love it when coupons/gift certificates are threatening to expire on me. Because it is a perfectly nice reason to spend money now.

you're poorer than you think

At least I am. Unemployment + one month vacations aren't really compatible. Admission tickets to the parks in Orlando (i.e. Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Universal Studios...) already come to around $3xx. Plus plane tickets. Plus broadway tickets (at least I'm buying rush tickets...but still at least $40...). Plus shopping money (not mandatory, but good idea to bring some). Plus food.

But it's okay. Spending money is kinda fun haha.

Btw, Benny keeps imagining our cruise to be like those Corona commercials (i.e. lawn chairs on a beautiful, quiet, sunny, peaceful beach and a corona). I am more realistic. I imagine crowded, dirty, noisy, sticky hot beaches with nothing but bottled water that we bought for $5.

Actually, no not anymore.

the other day i was at Lougheed Mall when the following happened:


BMO credit card salesperson guy:
Hey there do you have a minute?

Me with my shopping (oh how i dislike people that try to get me to buy/sign up for things):
no not really.

PERSISTENT BMO credit card salesperson guy:
you are a student, aren't you?

Me with my shopping, paused for a minute:
Actually, no not anymore.

not-so-persistent-after-all BMO credit card salesperson guy turns and goes bug someone else.

I think this is the very first time I am actually kinda happy that I am no longer a student.

好稍息

Today, after a long break from the shopping scene, I bought two pairs of new heels.

This is my mid-exam period reward haha
