Breaking my "Promise"

I know I'm gonna sound very bimbo-ish in this post but.... I HAVENT SHOPPED IN A MONTH!!!!

Haha.. Can you believe it? Maybe you don't know me or you basically don't really care but for a crazy shopoholic like me, its a super BIG deal!!!!

Do you know how much I have shopped in the past few months? Especially when I was back in Malaysia. I basically bought like 10 tops every two weeks!!!!!!!

Even after I got back from the US during the summer holidays and realized how much of my parents' money I have spent during my year in US, I still continued to shop like crazy.

Until I came back for the new semester, unpacked my stuff and realized how much more stuff I actually owned compared to the normal student in the university! I was shocked for the first time and faced with the prospect of "what the hell am I going to do with all the stuff that I have collected when I graduate?"

Its only a year and I already have 4 big boxes of rubbish! Multiply this with 3 more years and by the time I graduate, I'll have 12 boxes!!! What am I going to do with them?

That's when I told myself that I will refrain from shopping.. tooo much.

I told myself I will not get into my favorite clothing store without a proper reason to buy something of a necessity! And I succeeded! I didn't step into Forever 21 for one whole month!!!

And I didn't buy any clothes for one whole month either!!!

Yay!!! Congrats to Princess Shin.

And the funny thing was, the other day, I felt enough was enough and I should reward myself for being such a good girl. Adding to the fact that I felt homesick too. I told myself I'm going to buy something for myself that day.

But I walked into Forever 21, and I couldn't bring myself to buy anything.

For the first time, I walked out of Forever 21 empty handed!!!

Hooray for the month of September!

Unfortunately I walked into another clothing store last Sunday and found this cute black baby doll dress for $10 and I bought it! Whahaha...
