a new addiction

shopping is a girl's (or even some men's) therapy to feel happy. and feeling happy can be addictive. in other words, i think i'm addicted to shopping. that's not a very good sign. this is because, shopping only comes in when needed and i've known myself to only shop when there's a need to change my wardrobe and other valid reasons like that. however, recently i seemed to be finding excuses (more than valid reasons) to shop.

i don't know if it's due to the festive mood where everyone are out shopping for new year's clothes. even though i won't be around for the festive season, i can't helping indulging myself with the usual shoppings, together with the many others. i'm shopping as though i'm also celebrating. then again, a new year doesn't feels like a new year if there aren't new clothes to wear. i know that's a silly tradition, however this is how i'm brought up: new year = new clothes and shoes, and even underwear.

i've still a long list to buy:

- a duffel bag
- a new pair of sneakers
- tops for the new year
- shoes (or even boots)
- new lingerie
- makeup refills

these are the must-buy items in my head right now. i don't know if the list will get longer... which i believe it would. my shopping list doesn't get shorter, never in history. hahaha...

if the reason i'm shopping is coz' i want to feel happy, then something is really quite wrong. this simply would mean i'm unhappy... but the annoying thing is, i don't know what i'm unhappy about. or maybe i'm stressed about some stuff... sigh, perhaps i'll come to a conclusion soon... but till then, i'm in LOVE shopping. call me the new Shopaholic Goddess... *Guffaw!*
