Look at the stars, look how they shine for you.
is my life.

Mitch is the name. Most of you must be wondering, why would I wanna buy a cow? That's becus I loooove drinking milk and I drink like 1 litre of milk everyday which my mom thinks it's insane so she asked me to go and buy a cow. I love God, my family, friends and churchmates and of course my fruittie tuttie sweetie boyfriend! Music, fashion and food are love. Listening to music is a must for me everyday and I adore drumming, sadly I suck at it. :( I love eating, almost everything except vegetables. I luuuurve the stars, star gazing, whotever that is starry and especially my precious oh-so-cute FLUFFY PINK STARRY pen. I need to wear my pyjamas before I go to sleep every night. Having oreos and milk for supper makes me super happy and also helps me drift to lalaland faster. Anything that has to do with oreos, like oreo donut oreo cheesecake oreo chocolate iced blended oreo marshmallow yogurt gets me high and yes, I laugh with an extra high squeal at the end. And obviously, I like to make my friends laugh out loud with my silliness and jokes. :) You may think I'm weird but I don't care. Oh, I am RETARDED so beware. xP

With both hands, my fingers gripped the cord handles of the bags tightly.
Beads of perspiration flowed from my forehead down to my cheeks.
I tried using my right shoulder to wipe off the perspiration but the heavy bags tied me down.
My throat was dry, I could barely open my mouth.
How nice if some one could reach into my bag to get a piece of tissue to dab my perspiration and get a water bottle to quench my thirst.
It's warm..
The sunlight hit against my face, forcing me to bow my head down.
I looked at my fingers, my hands are clammy.
The veins in my fingers started protruding, I gripped the handles tighter and hoisted the bags up using my thighs, in hope of relaxing the muscles in my fingers.
It did helped, but only for a few seconds.
My fingers hurt..it's turning red.
Amidst the people squeezing their way past me, I silently screamed HELP in my heart.
Soon after, I saw the train approaching and was horrified to see that it's so damn bloody packed.
"Darn..why did I put myself through this.." I muttered as I stepped into the train.

It was so packed, I couldn't put my bags down on the ground, let alone hold on to the pole for support.
And yes, the bags greatly reduced my sense of balance.
I felt so helpless, I just closed my eyes, enjoying the cool breeze of air.
At least there's air con..

All these while, from the moment I step foot on to the platform to waiting for the train and to boarding the train, I was thinking.
I was thinking, why didn't I take the bloody cab?
I could save myself lots of trouble.
I could just flag a cab from school, get into the cab, dump my bags on to the rear seat and tell the cab driver "Choa Chu Kang stadium" and he would nod and voila, home in 20 minutes!
I don't need to strain the muscles of my fingers.
There's soothing music, there's air con.
No crowd, no perspiration...

Why did I choose the former?
Obviously, to save money.
Given the time, which was evening, cab fares are at it's highest.
$2 (with lots of disadvantages + determination) and $20 (with advantages + laziness) to get home, which one will you choose, given that money is a very important factor.

It's funny when I insisted on taking the train, even when my dad offered to pay for the cab fare, just to save $18.
All these just for $18?
It's ironic, I'm shaking my head in disbelief now.

Well, whenever I'm window shopping online, I never give a second thought when I'm eyeing this particular dress or top.
I confirmed the item, and then check my inbox after a few hours.
Once I have received the payment details, I immediately log on to ibanking and paid for it.
Yes, 30bucks gone like that, just with a click.

Now you know why it's ironic.
You must be thinking, what the hell, she went through all that to save $18 and she buys things online without a second thought?
And then you'll continue thinking, I bet she's gonna spend the $18 she painfully saved just now on another top online sooner or later.
Then you are right.
I guess I'm addicted to online shopping, my fingers are itching, I haven't log in to ibanking for 6 days already.
Mind you, that's a record.

Hurray to me.
