Temptation.

Temptation is...wanting to post another blog like the last, ranting and raving about crap that people don't really care about.  But then I realised I already sound a bit like a brat.  So here's a balance. :)

While this may not be deep and meaningful, it is real and I fight these most days!! (hehe)

Temptation is all those songs I feel like I would die without if I didn't buy them off iTunes right now (yes, there is no illegal downloading in this house - my dad is paranoid, plus, I'd be the sort to feel excruciatingly guilty), whilst my iPod (all 30GB of it!) is almost full to bursting.

Temptation is that glass of wine after dinner I don't really need but have anyway because I've discovered it helps me sleep better.

Temptation is the book sale - or should I say, any book sale in the near vicinity - where you can get 5 paperbacks for $20.

I guess it is programmed into us as children that if it is a bargain, you should get it, you wouldn't want to miss out.  This has been my downfall.  So while my reasonable side of my brain says "you won't die without it", my impulsive side says "go for it, you might not see another one like it!". 

Thus I am now feeling a bit dumb, because my savings for university are abysmal, to say the least.  And now I'm even more nervous.

sigh its a vicious cycle.  I think I should give my credit card to my mum. :)
