I am a Material Girl.....

"cause the boy with the cold hard cash is always Mr. Right"

In the words of the original material girl herself, Madonna, or Duchess Madonna now, I have a confession to make: I am material, hopelessly.

I can't help it. I have been at college since August, and I have definitely been craving a good shopping trip. Like a junkie I drool at the Urban Outfitters ads and adorable J.Crew clothes out this season.



The two main obstructions in the way of satisfying my fix are transportation and lack of funds. As the end of school gets closer and closer I can almost hear the muffled music, feel the cloth of the endless racks of clothing, and smell the intoxicating smell of new clothes.
Never have I been so thirsty for a job, a real job, not West Center Computer lab girl.

I am actually looking nostalgically on my months spent behind a desk filing papers and answering phone calls for 15 hours a week at a dance studio. I mean this is bad.

Last semester the lack of funding was my only problem. Back then I had transportation in the way of friends with automobiles. Having left my Chevy S10 at home to bus around my other 5 siblings I have been land bound and despising it.



The friends with cars were also shopaholics, and you think this would be a great set up, right? WRONG. There is absolutely nothing more depressing than walking into Charlotte's South Park mall and realizing, you can't afford the toilet paper these people are stocking their bathroom's with.

I strongly think that "window shopping" is an agent of assisted suicide.

After last semester one of the friends with a car got one too many speeding tickets, and the other realized that because of the frequent shopping trips, she was probably not going to be able to leave her books ever spring semester.

Now that all these troubles are less than a month behind me I can't say I am feeling relieved. To make up for lost time I will need to shop for every season, I mean I need to hit up fall, winter, spring, and most definitely summer sales.

It's going to take some time, It's going to take some money, and it's taking too damn long to get here.


PS. If you would like to donate your time, money, or just become my sugar daddy/mama...please contact me asap.
