I thought i was doing darn good. For the first 3 days i was home, i hardly ventured out to snoop around the shops. I was in denial all week until today i realised i HAVE BEEN SHOPPING. And doing some damage as well. Not too serious yet but still, enough to bruise a bank. The secret is not to buy anything too expensive, that way you keep yourself in the dark and pat your own back about saving money. Today as i waited for a friend to make her rounds in the loo, i looked down at all the shopping bags sitting nicely at my feet (though only ONE belonged to me), I thought to myself ... it's time to P-A-C-E girlfriend. This trip has been really relaxing. No major hurry to get anything done. No plans further than the next 24 hours. Have to remind myself the shops open 4 hours longer than usual. And the weirdest thing i must say is listening to Guy Sebastian every day on the radio ... I guess angels brought him over here too.
