I have a problem...I got into online shopping... I already spent at least $90 =_= and am planning to buy a bit more.

Unlike most shopaholics, I don't shop for clothes.  I shop for batteries, wires (a probably more computer components when I have the cash), pens and books.


I am spending my new year's money...  *wallows in the corner of self-hate*

My parents went out to refund the monitor... we lost the $10 that paid for shipping.  My dad found an iPhone and gave it to my brother.  We used the refunded money to get a $25 charger.  It was puny and can't even be considered a charger because all you do is attach it to the computer.  I searched up some chargers online...  There are Home/Car charger packs that cost $25...  I hate you Best Buy.  How can you lie to people like this?

I plan to refund one of my Pond's Cold Cream to get some money to pay for my brother's fine.  The thing is, I got the receipt in which my mom used her credit card.  I'm thinking of exchanging it for the Dry Skin Cream and going back another day to refund it for cash (since I got a separate receipt where the latter was bought with cash.)

I sorta regret going to Molly's birthday dinner yesterday.  The thing is, I wasted my $20 of life savings on spaghetti.  It's not worth it.  I wouldn't have mind if I got more variety and dishes if we had gone to a classic Chinese restaurant instead.  I mean, we didn't even know what to order.  I pity Jeffrey who got some sort of sausage and bitter greens dish.  The total bill came up to about $330.  Each dish was at least $15...  I don't think I'll ever go to an Italian restaurant again. 

I want to go to the school play on Wednesday.  I need $10...  I'm probably gonna have to use half of what's left of my money now.

Sorry if no one really cares about what I spend money on but these financial issues are really bringing me down :(  How will I be able to spend for Christmas, I wonder.

I made my brother's library fine $26 for overdue books and I promised I would keep his card valid...  Now I need money to pay the fine in order to continue borrowing books (limit is $15) and renew the current ones.  I can't ask my parents because I know they don't have money, would question me and then tell my relatives about how I'm kinda ruining my family financially (they did this when they found out I wasted all my Chinese New Years money on book orders back in 2nd grade.)  This is quite strange considering I've always thought that I never really get what I want.  On the contrary, I think it's better this way because it saves up for the things I actually need and these needs are usually expensive :X

My brother is a dick.  He sleeps at 1 or 2 every night; even when he doesn't even fucken have homework.  It's pissing me off knowing that he's ruining his health and my XP computer by stressing it.  He took up Maplestory again and I just can't take that he's wasting another year of his life; how could he have not realized when he wasted 2 years of his life a while back?!  I wanted my brother to become an average kind of man, with a little or more build; not a fatass geek who wouldn't even be able to get a girl.  I bet he's going to regret this in the future since I'm failing to help him open his eyes to the consequences now.  It's my fault as well since I started sleeping so late.  I wish I could sleep earlier... this is becoming a terrible habit.

Holy crap, I'm not sure how I'm supposed to react but my dad saw me reading what he probably interprets as p0rn.  I read worse things but I try to keep them all stealth... pretty good at it too, considering I used to read smut when my grandparents were right behind me watching television.  I was reading the latest chapter of Say I Love You; haven't read girly romance manga in a while.  It's actually really cute but since it's set around high school kids, its obvious there would be hints of sexual acts involved.  There's no explicit content though!  It just so happened I open the chapter image and it was the image to the left.  It does look a bit perverted but after reading the chapter, I interpreted the image as portraying the innocence of the character.
I apologize if the image "tainted" you.  Get over it.  Oh and Xin Ru, you're probably the only person whose blog I've yet commented on.  Will get to you soon!  ><
