Impulse Buying
How and where I have been spending my money lately? Some people enjoy going shopping for clothes, some for shoes but for me I like stationary shopping. I am also a big gadget whore. Starting the final year of uni next week I know I will be having stressful periods of time. I like playing video games a lot and having lost my Nintendo DSi 5hours after lending it to someone just as soon as I left Bristol *hint hint* shattered my world. So I'm thinking of a getting a replacement. I remember in my younger years I use to play Pokemon day in day out. I'd use to curl up in my bed just playing my Game boy and get lost in my own world. I consider this time like a little patch of heaven for me. Anyhow, I'm still considering if I should get a handheld console or maybe an Xbox 360. I'm spending a lot of time reflecting on this as sometimes I don't trust myself - I may end up getting so addicted playing games.
Coming Back To London
As I come back in my old life in London after spending a week in Bristol, suddenly everything felt so strange. I used to walk the streets around my area and it would just be a normal routine that I do everyday. But as soon as I got out of the tube station even the scent of the air smelt different to me. Suddenly, taking a trip downstairs our building to Tesco felt like a lighter yet a long journey. I reflected peacefully about the dramatic change in my perception of everything I was used up to. It took me a while but I'd realized I was adapting myself to a more solitary, tranquil and more focused existence.
Maintaining Equilibrium
I've never enjoyed being just with myself this thoroughly ever in my life. In the midst of all the fear I feel at the moment in life mostly about my future; where I am heading career-wise, living out properly without the help of my parents, living out my ideal lifestyle - somehow getting away from it all for a short period of time gave me a new fresh perspective. And to spend that little "getaway" time with somebody special made it all more worthwhile. My strength, my hope, my love. I'm grateful to have met new people, be a part of a new culture and participate in a new group dynamics. The night before I left we had a hot pot - its a dish where you put anything into the pot while its boiling. And my newly found friends made me a little treat to take home back to London. Here's a picture of what I took back with me. They are Vietnamese spring rolls.
