I don't need liquid courage, I need edible happiness

So lah.

Finished work and went to Coles to get some chocolate on sale. It's odd that Kit Kat took that long to come up with caramel and cookies and cream version of their chocolate bar. I've got 4 assignments in my bag, one due tomorrow, and I'm stuck on facebook playing a restaurant game. How messed up is that?

But the graphics are so cute! They remind me so much of harvest moon.

One hour to go til class time.

So as I was saying, whist walking from work to class, I passed by a shop that was selling things for 50% off. One of the things was a nice looking bag. $10, canvas exterior and poly inner, about the dimensions of a normal A3 width. Kinda good actually if not for the bedazzling at the side. Skipped it because for one, I don't think I need another bag since I have one for laptop carry and one satchel. Not to forget the handbag lovely people gave me last year. And for another, I shouldn't be buying unnecessary stuff anyway. No hoarding please =)

Went for a little walk down to the supermarket and got my chocolate. 3 bars and a rectangle for less than $5. One's gone now.

I was stopped by a salesman trying to sell me makeup. The first thing that came to mind was, "Do I look like someone who actually wears makeup?". Bare in mind that I was wearing blue jeans, a brown top, and a black and white hoodie, while lugging a full laptop bag on my back. Oh, and I was scarfing down on a Kit Kat =D

The brand was Victoria... something. It's gone from my mind now (see what I mean?). And is apparently the brand that Angelina Jolie and Sarah Jessica Parker used. Well, that didn't help the attraction much because Jolie is pretty and Parker... is probably not my compact powder, know what I'm sayin? (Probably not)

He passed me a makeup kit with a smaller one and gave me a price. Then he gave me the discounted price. It was a good $60 less then what he says to be the retail price. Still doesn't entice me to wear make up though. So I told him, "I don't think I have even $15 to spare (on makeup)". This delightful guy instead pulls a smaller array of lip balm from the counter, promising to give me a price lower than my budget and about half the price of retail. It's a good try. I still don't see the need though. What's more, if the makeup caters to such high profile names, why then are they going for cheap? So I apologize to him (feeling sorry because I have trouble just getting people to take FLYERS) and take my leave.

5 minutes later I'm not really thinking about it anymore because the Kit Kat was still in my hand (and mouth to some extent).

Walking to class from Coles however I get stalled by a guy asking for spare change and my mind is taken up by the speculation of how he got that way. It's so easy to think bad things of others but I'm kinda glad I didn't. I also didn't give him any spare change because my wallet was in my bag and I only had a tenner in my pocket. Maybe next time then.

I dunno.

It's funny for me how it can be thought as negative in a way that the other party might be doings something wrong, or as another negative where I'd be feeling guilty for not helping out when I might have(?).

Am I thinking to much about trivialities? Should I just concentrate on the chocolate in my bag or should I think about maybe giving a little more back to the non-edible economy? Or I should probably think of what to say to the lecturer about my work not being done.

:D
