Hello, my name is Claire...

...and I'm a SHOPAHOLIC!!!

Seriously, it's a major problem I have.  So basically I haven't had an income (besides babysitting my best friend Preston) since I got home from Texas about 6 months ago, which means that my shopping days went from enormous, to non-existent.  I've been doing very well, I haven't bought myself anything since I've been home and it's been SO hard!  (Well, luckily I have an awesome boyfriend who sometimes does the shopping for me-which helps!)  Anyways, I went to the mall on Thursday...which is like sending an alcoholic to a liquor store.  I was doing pretty good, just looking at boys stuff instead of girls...but then came Macys.  I bought 2 things that dreadful day.  The first shirt was a great buy and was very much on sale, while the second shirt (Free People gets me every time) was most definitely NOT on sale.  Now the problem here, besides the fact that my bank account took a hit, is that I WANT MORE!!!!!  This is where the "aholic" part comes in.  Buying just those 2 cute shirts made my itch for shopping skyrocket, and now it's all that consumes my mind.  I keep thinking of all the cute outfits I could make with just that one more shirt or jacket. It's horrible.  Anyways, the moral of the story is to stay strong!  All you other 'holics out there, be strong..it's not worth it!  Actually it totally was worth it, but not the point.  RESIST!

I'm reading a book called Eat, Pray, Love and the author raised $18,000 from her friends and family to buy a house for a poor Indonesian family.  So my challenge is for any of you reading this, if you'd like to pledge some money to my shopping fund, I'd be happy to accept!

Gotta go call my sponsor, I'm having major withdrawals right now.

Heads Up

Just in case you all haven't had enough Bachelor drama already, there's more to come! Mellisa will be on the Ellen Show today, and STUPID Jason and TACKY Molly will be on tomorrow.
Excuse my hostility, but I think that it was very trashy that 1. Jason broke up with poor Melissa on national television (whether or not ABC thought it was kept "intimate"...with millions of viewers, that was not intimate)
And 2. really Molly and Jason, hooking up 5 minutes after he ditches his fiance? Very uncool. He acted as though they were still on the show and he could just "pick" someone else. UGH they bug me, but of course I will be tuned in to watch.

Shalom.

I Have A Teeny Crush...

So EXCITED for The Bachelorette!!!!!!!!

Do you think they'll let me apply?...
So sue me, I like Jillian.
She has the cutest body, clothes, and is fun.
Basically I wish I were her...and I know you all agree so don't judge me!
