I probably am. I can't help it, I see nice stuff, and i get blinded by the glossy packaging, and shell out money just cause its pretty. And i tell myself i need it. I need new bags, new shoes, new makeup, new skincare, new accessories... and obviously the list goes on. A girl needs her pretty stuff no?

My bf says i lie.
lol

i mean, cmon, do you care when u buy a blouse and meditate on the spiritual meaning of the flowing lines? You buy a bag and contemplate on the cultural aspects and the inspiration it gave the designer?

And if

these pretty things cost me a bit more, coz it pretty. Well, I'm a sucker.

and if a Lancome foundation cost me 60+ bucks vs a watson's bought 20+/- no name foundation. I'll opt for Lancome. Mainly because the quality is better. there's technology involved, so they say. and I don't mind paying for it. there must be a reason for going to work at 8.30 in the morning right?

are pple whu do not buy branded stuff not materialistic?
thats not true either.
there are those whu can't afford it.
and there are those whu probably spend their money elsewhere, like techie stuff.
Upgrades forever for their PCs, lappies, PSP etc.

So whu cares if i'm materialistic or not.
As long as I'm happy. Whu r u to sneer?
