A resolution...

Apr 13, 2008 19:11

I think I just had a revelation. Today has been divided between knitting, revising for my media law exam, and reading my new copy of Bust. This has been a bit of problem, because no where near enough of that time has been spent on the exam revision part, and the exam is tomorrow. Oops ( Read more... )

self-help, i couldn't live without me but..., ka-ching!, feminists ho!

Thank you! I am going to be wibbling about this a lot so when that happens, remind me it was a good idea!

Wow. GOOD LUCK! *cheers you on* I was going to suggest ONE month, but three seems reasonable.

I should make a similar vow re: my schoolwork, but... nah. :p

Thanks :) I'm sort of in shock... I'm expecting a breakdown in the next week or two at least. But for now, yay me!

Go you! I might join in with you and include DVDs in my abstinence. (with the exception for the ashes to ashes box-set that comes out in may - i HAVE TO have it! also my blue skinny jeans have a hole in the crotch, but i will try to fix it if i can!)

my DVD habit has got really bad again since i lifted the ban in january. it doesn't help that i work right next door to HMV (i've also started to buy cd's which i never did before)...

anyways, yeah, i'm going to join you in the hopes of supporting your efforts and hopefully kicking my own habit at the same time! xx

You should join me. I think if I'd had to point the finger at anyone as being in the same league as myself it would probably be you! But you can't make exceptions for stuff! The Ashes to Ashes Box Set will still be there when you finish your abstinence! It's hardly going to sell out!

My jeans have a hole. I'm going to patch them with a pair of pants. HAH! Take that, consumerism!

alili April 13 2008, 20:11:26 UTC

nope, sorry. i really do have to buy that one dvd. it doesn't come out until halfway through May so it's possible i might forget about it ^_^;;

i will definitely join you in going cold turkey on the rest of my shopaholism ^_^

i just got mum to patch my jeans up!

Lol, you're failing before you start in that case! But still, good for you. It'll be nice to have some company in my misery... I'm imagining that cold turkey scene from Trainspotting. I need to lock myself in a room with two buckets, one to throw up in and one to shit in, and a television. Then in two weeks I'll be fine. God that film was gross.

Is it too much to hope that Bust is a magazine about breasts..? ;)

scoobygang63 April 14 2008, 09:24:37 UTC

It's a glossy womens/feminist magazine... so sometimes it's about breasts!

Trainspotting, while good, is probably the grossest film I've ever seen, so good luck with the not getting shit all over everything bit of the process.

And good luck with the rest. I hope this decision does what you want it to, or that you find some other way of getting yourself to a place where you feel okay with yourself and how you handle this stuff.

*hugs a lot*
