Impuslive buys


It's been a stereotype for women all around the world to be addicted to shopping, that some were called "shopaholics". I'm not that much into shopping really. Certainly, I'm not the type of girl who spends an hour in one shop and another hour trying every single garment in the fitting room. I go into a shop, choose what I want, and sometimes I don't even bother to try on if whatever I chose actually fits or not.
Gladly, the guy who ends up with me wouldn't have to suffer since I won't be spending my day and night in a single shop trying to figure out whether I take the blue or turquoise blouse with the light beige or white skirt.
The only thing that I really worry about is my impulsive buys. Most of the time I'd buy something with an OMG-I'm-gonna-live-on-the-streets price. I hate that about myself but sometimes I just can't help it. I either want the thing so badly, or I just feel like I want to have it NOW..and I mean NOW. Even if there's a sale the coming day, I don't care I'm getting it this moment.
One of my stupidest impulsive buys was just 24 hours ago. Without thinking, I went on ABC's store online and bought a scrub top and pants. Am I a doctor? No. Am I a crazy fan? Yes. Why did I buy it? Seriously, I don't know. I even got a shirt that has "Seriously" written on it. Can some one back me up on what I just bought? I hope this thing ships before my mom is back here. To my sisters, both of you, if you tell mom...You know, keep your mouth shut please, and don't forget the sister pact.
No need to mention all of my other impulsive buys, but I've done it a million times, purchasing items from dvds, to shirts, to bags, and shoes. I'm the one labeled "impulsive buyer" in marketing terms, they just didn't post my picture beside it yet.
Despite the fact being impulsive, I have thought a lot and waited for a long time to buy a laptop. Last night, I just ordered the Macbook Pro 2.33, and I have put my all into it-- my thoughts, my money, and my shopping life. As long as I have an excellent laptop I wouldn't mind staying broke...for a little while only.
