My Good Cause.
I’ve finally got my hands on this shirt. It took Gap forever to make more so that there’s enough for everybody, but I was one of those people who genuinely waited for it. (Speaking of which, if these shirts were in such high demands, why haven’t I seen anybody wear one yet? Seriously!)
Well, 15 dollars from this shirt went to buy medicine for women who suffer from AIDS in Africa. Most importantly, for the pregnant African women who knows that they have AIDS, but does not have the medicine to stop the disease from spreading to their offspring. If you think about it, the thought of not having the right medicine to treat your sick child is heart breaking. I send my love out to them tonight.

Shopping Spirit.
It took me forever to maneuvre my way through the mall today. YOU KNOW Christmas shopping is in effect. I saw Santa Claus in the mall today. Um, it’s November. Somehow, the Christmas bug comes and bites everyone in the ass earlier and earlier each year. (For instance, the day after Halloween, Wal-mart eagerly stashed the remaining unsold candies in the clearance pile, and replaced the shelves with Christmas candy canes and boxes of chocolates with festive decorations on it. It was November 1st.)
Wal-Mart reminded me today how many days I have left to shop for Christmas: 37.
Damn you Wal-mart and your marketing ways.
My head hurts from thinking about shopping, I hate the Christmas shopping mob. I just want to sit by the fireplace and drink hot chocolate with my loved ones.

I know a few people with those shirts. But they usually wear it around the house rather than out. Christmas shopping is giving me a headache as well. I love this time of the year, but I totally dread shopping. I am not a shopper.
ohh my. i chcked last time and they didn’t have it. i actually want the belt but it’s like 50. i still hvnt decided.
i thought my christmas list shrunk (just cause things have changed since last christmas) and i was wrong. my list actually grew, which means $$$$$$!
