My Halloween

Halloween is disappointing me this year. Why is this holiday so commercialized? I mean, costumes are so expensive, people are buying tones of candies and parents are driving their children from street to street so they can trick-and-treating as much as possible. People are decorating their house as it was Christmas holiday! I really don't get the point. What are we celebrating yet? I think we are supposed to celebrate death. But instead, people are spending money to buy costumes, decorations and candies. Costumes are not even scaring anymore. Some are costuming to look like Lady Gaga, Superman or Barbie. Halloween is so popular and means not much to us. It has lost its religion meaning. I went to the bar on Saturday night to celebrate. I was expecting to see few people costumed and others not caring about it. OMG! What a surprise to see the bar over fulled of costumed people. I think I had never seen the bar this full. I had never seen that much witches, vampires, superman, fake girls costumes in my entire life as well. The bar was over the capacity it could handle. It took me 10min to get to the dancefloor and 15min to reach the bathroom. WHAT A NIGHT! My wig got stuck everywhere because it was too big for the minimal space everyone had to respect. It even stayed stuck to a man dress shirt and he had to broke its button so I could walk away. My lord, it was boring. Nobody could dance or drink properly. Too much people in this tiny bar. Well, I am also surprise to tell you that I paid $40 for my costume and that I wore it only 2hours because I returned home, wig less, sorry to not be a child anymore so I could have trick-and-treat wearing a witch hat and running through the streets.

Confessions of a shopaholic

I have to admit it; my shopping addiction is killing me now! It gets bigger and bigger as I am growing up as a woman. I wish I could save money; I should save money, actually, I need to save money so bad! I can't explain this addiction to anybody. What an incredible feeling to spend money for material that you don't necessary need, eh? Okay, well, you might not think the same. That is the problem: I feel like I'm the only person of my entourage that's suffering that bad of this kind of disease. Because, YES, it is a disease to me. It is affecting my psychological condition and my future. Since I own a credit card, you can imagine that I'm spending even more! Well, I still have the capacity to pay my bills, my credit card, my car, etc. But, I don't have any extra money to put in my ''useless saving account''! Argggg, the more I try, the less it's working. I've tried so many times to fix myself, to deal with it, to change the situation. Nothing is giving my the great satisfaction of buying new shoes, new clothes, a new cellphone, or whatever. I feel in conflict with myself, and I always have regrets after a purchase. I feel guilty, proud of me, and then guilty again. Sometimes I can be a week without spending a buck, except for gas. And then, I'm taken by an urge to buy the first thing that's come in my mind. Thank god, I've got only one credit card! Unless my situation would look like the one in Confessions of a shopaholic. If you want to get an idea of what I am -a shopaholic-, just watch this movie! Enjoy!!! :)

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog! I'd like to introduce you to my blog and introduce you to a song a really like. Last Friday, I had the chance to listen to my favorite band LIVE from Quebec City. That was the best show ever! RISE AGAINST is the name of the band. The name they've chosen is representative of their songs, beacause the lyrics are always on givong their opinion about anything they care about. This is one of the reasons I appreciate them so much. So.... Welcome to my blog and just ENJOY! :)
