/ The Inspirations of a Student Journalist: Not such a good day afterall.

Not such a good day afterall.

I've bored my flat mates with this so now I'll bore you with it too.

I thought today would be a brilliant day, feeling refreshed after a weekend at home and Paris only days a way, I was feeling good when I got out of bed.

That was until I screwed up my credit check for my new Blackberry in Carphone Warehouse by giving them the wrong billing address. Then in my attempt to make my self feel better about spending £100 on clothes at the weekend, I took back three gorgeous things to Topshop and in return have made myself feel even worse.

Why did I even take them back? Yes I get my money back but then I don't have the pretty things to enjoy. What's money if your not actually going to spend it on the things that make you happy. I actually want that jumper.

Annoyed at this and the fact I'm stuck with this stupid, battered phone for another month I headed right for the Krispee Kreme shop which actually made me feel better, however only momentarily. Krispee Kremes I might add are actually amazing, but really quite expensive. The £1.20 i spent this afternoon on one however was definitely worth it.

Although I took a few bits back I also swapped one of them for some shorts that I thought were lovely in Topshop, when I got home and tried them on again though I'm wondering if it was the right move. They are pretty but not worth the price, I still want the jumper which leads to the fact tomorrow I am taking them back and re - buying the pretty jumper.

God, I am literally the worst person to shop with - I am too fussy, I worry too much about the price of things and I cannot make decisions to save my life. Pretty much every time I go shopping I will take something back, either because I changed my mind or decided it's too expensive. 

I honestly wish I had enough money to have it all, even if I was only going to wear something once I would buy it if I could afford to. Which leads me to my other point - I need a job! I miss the days where I didn't have to worry about money or the price of things and know that I wasn't going to run out.

I gave that up when I decided to be a student though and I knew it would be like this. The funny thing is I know that come the summer I have a job waiting for me at home, regular, reliable and good pay but there's another decision do I go back to what I know and what I expect? Or do I wait it out here until something crops up and try something new?
