materialism
yesterday was great! i went shopping in the city with mum and we bought all sorts of crap, and had lunch at a great asian place, and it was awesome. we bought:
- a skirt for mum
- a present for ellen
- big sunnies for me
- material for sewing with
- white knee-high socks (which reminds me, does anyone know where to get socks that are MORE than knee-high? as in all the cute animes?)
- rice noodles and somen noodles (as in, to cook with, not already cooked)
and poosibly some other stuff i can't remember...
and yeterday we went shopping a bit too, and i got clothes for ellen's party and this cute bag and stuff. AND, mum made me a shirt out of this material we found for $2. yay!
right now i'm wearing my brown skirt and my new chocolate brown top and my big sunnies are on my head and this beaded necklace and a stringy belt thing, and i feel oh-so-boho. hooray!
you know, over the last few months or something, i've become so much more shallow in a lot of ways, but i'm not actually that worried about it. i mean, i'm a teenager. i think for a while i just want to enjoy a bit of the consumerist life. buy clothes and make clothes, and flirt with random guys for no reason at all. i don't know. i just feel like i want to at least try to believe i'm good-looking and don't HAVE to be an academic or something because there's some sort of chance that i could be spotted by some famous modeling agency and become the next gemma ward or something. and then when i DO become a psychologist or whatever, i won't feel like it was my only choice. it's not that i actually want to BE a model or anything, just that it would be so fantastic to be told i COULD be. like rey was. i am so jealous of her right now.
anyway, three more days of the holidays left... sorry, STUDY BREAK. i momentarily lapsed into believing that year twelves had lives. i take it all back.
