Day Three;

Doing this one first thing..

Day Three; One Positive Habit I would like to implement my life

I could list a whole bunch of positive habits that I'd want to develope such as, exercising more, keeping my room tidy, thinking more of others than myself, learning the road rules so I can finally go for my learners license etc etc. but I think the one habit that I really want to start working at is..

SAVING MY MONEY!!

Hi, my name is Natasha and I'm a shopaholic. There I said it, it's out there in the world. I suck at saving my money and instead I spend my pay each week on new clothes, handbags, books and stuff I don't need, just want. To be fair (with myself), I have sorta started putting some money aside for savings, but being me, I do dip my hand in it every so often because I "need" something, so I havn't exactly saved too much so far, but I'm trying. It's a start and I think its a good one.
I feel like shopping is good therapy. What girl doesn't enjoy 'retail therapy' when she's feeling pretty low? It's only natural to want to shop when you are a girl, but I think maybe I shop a little too often and usually I buy items of clothing that I'll wear a few times and then never again and then months later refuse to get rid of them because I convince myself that it either goes with something else I own or that I will definitely wear it soon because I "love it".
I shop the bargains. I love a sale because it means I can buy more stuff for the same amount of money as buying one item at full price. So that's good I guess except, I would rather prefer the nicer more expensive clothing that I know I'll wear more often. Still that doesn't help my saving dilemma..
So how about this. From now on I will try harder to save most of my money each week and keep a bit for lunch, train and enough for an evening out with my boy to a movie. And also, I will go through all my clothes and instead of convincing myself that I need my clothes, I'll try and convince myself that I don't need them and I will get rid of a whole bunch and try and sell them. With that money (hopefully if anything sells) I will save half and then buy myself 3 or 4 items of nice clothing that I instantly fall in love with and will never tire of.
Sounds like a win-win situation and thats A-OK with my ;)
