Spendthrift

i want to buy things...

but NOO don't call me a spendthrift. Instead, i am a thrifty spender!

Really really although i know i can be puzzling sometimes because of my ability to buy new things even though i complain i am broke! But thats because I plan and resist temptations by reminding myself "要破产了" whenever I want to spend. I let the money and "受不了-ness" accumulate before i finally HOOT something i like.

And I try to cut down on unnecessary 'outside food', movies at cinemas, entertainments etc. Even when I am at NTUC I can spend hours comtemplating which brand of milk or cookie to choose because another brand has a tag labelled "Everyday Low Price!" on the price.

And I cant help but spend because time flies and things spoil! Even if they do not spoil, they become yellow, faulty, obiang or simply OLD. Moreover, companies just love to produce so many useful and fanciful products to tempt people.

There is nothing wrong in buying things to make myself happy wat! Just like hamsters need treats and new toys occasionally too if not they become bored. And if I dun buy the things I really like now, it will be too late when I become too 'old' for it!

Ya, there will be new things that I will want to buy when I grow up, but its so wrong to always delay and wait for the yearning to cease. I will die without ever owning products I liked!

Materialistic or wat. Superficial or wat. In any way, buying new things can really make me happy! Containing the excitement when bringing it home before unwrapping it and sniff the 'new' smell. WOOO so shiok! Thats what they mean by 'retail therapy'.

So don't say I am spoilt or spendthrift or rich because I really am not. =) I am just a kiam-siap spender that is never satisfied.

Wee so I want BUY new things! Wallet, slippers, shoes, clothes, music, ipod, psp, camera... the possibility is endless! =D
