Shopping is seriously overrated

I don't understand why everyone alive must flock to the malls on Sundays. Why Sundays of all days?? Shouldn't people be relaxing @ home, bushwalking, going to church, rewarding their pets, reading or even studying?? What kind of hobby is shopping?? arrgghhh.. I guess I just had a sore day.. I woke up and had a sushi roll for brekkie and that was it til 4 pm -after i finished work. I hate the feeling of energy been drained away. And this is where I must admit my admiration of those who can toil and toil and toil without a sigh of complaint. And the good thing about blogging is that it puts things in perspective, coz now thru simply writing it out and forcing myself to assess it, i feel so much better. If only i had a pad of paper and a pen every time i felt not-so-sunny, i doubt I'll ever feel the blues.

I hope that with uni coming up plus work, my mental side won't suffer:) I have so many plans that keep spilling in from all directions and none of them would operate effectively without the dough which is why I'm saving like mad. But i can't say I'm working like mad -coz i'm not. And this is where I feel almost guilty for any tiredness or grump my body holds. There are great people at work who do 8 hour days 5 or more days a week yet continue to radiate this positive energy about them. And in retail, as hard as it is to make any real friends, there are 2-3 @ work that I just simply adore. They're so pure and fresh and have seemingly limitless energy, yet they're so feminine @ the same time:) true to themselves i say.

There are many things to look forward to. And it doesn't occur to me that what i'm doing isn't too common for an upcoming uni student until people sorta go 'whoah' when i tell em', but I've sort of skimmed ahead 4 years to my grad. I've made a yearly budget and figured out roughly how much I'd have saved by grad time. Of course things will change but being proactive helps and I trust myself to remain open. Once I've graduated I can go any one of the 3 paths I've chosen at the moment. And me adopting a kitten will only follow one of them. To be able to map out my future with God and well, myself is an awesome experience because the plan will keep changing as i change, and with the people I meet :) Nobody is giving me any rules or expectations, which I'm not unuse to but having the means to carry out plans certainly changes everything. Well I pray that I'll always retain a kid-at-heart attitude. This world is in despo need of cheering up.. Can't even think of a good comedy to check out @ the movies right now >:O
