A Day In The Life: Shopping Overload

An eventful day consisting of only shopping with Rocio

A Day In The Life: Shopping Overload
Javona

My friend Rocio and went shopping for back to college. We both felt like we needed a reward for having our whole summer ruined by a stupid summer course. We wanted to start the new school year in style. Not really... we just wanted to go shopping for once. Here is what I spent my Sunday doing.

Morning

My day started around 8:30 AM. I got ready and watched the church channel on my laptop. I felt bad because I usually go to church but since I'm dorming, I can't go as much anymore. I was so mad because I didn't get to eat breakfast either. I was rushed because Rocio texted me and said "Let's BOUNCE!" So I ordered the Uber and waited for Rocio outside.


Afternoon

When we arrived to Glendale Galleria, everything was closed. I was so mad. We had to wait outside in the heat for 30 minutes, but it was our fault because we should have checked online. The mall opened at approximately 11:00 AM. The first place we went to was Hot Topic. We wanted to pick up some T-shirts. I bought a Rolling Stones shirt and a tattoo choker. After that, our friend Kaitlyn joined us and we all went to Victorias Secret to go get some girly things aka underwear and body spray. The mall got packed so quick people were pushing and shoving with no apologies. I think it's just a thing for people in Los Angeles to just be rude and snobby all the time.

Afternoon (cont.)

So we head to Forever 21 and by this time I am shaking. I'm so hungry but I didn't want to eat at a restaurant. I wanted to eat my food at home. I was surprised I didn't have a headache. So 2:00 comes around and I kid you not we were in Forever 21 for about 2 hours because Rocio couldn't decide what she wanted. We were balling on a budget.

We finally finished our eventful day off with Lush cosmetics. I got a face wash and I'm about to go to class tomorrow feeling fresh and confident as heck! I took an Uber home and he played some cool tunes. After today, I won't be spending money for a while. I spent almost $300, but I spent wisely and I'm happy with my choices. I got home and did laundry because I wanted to plan my outfit early for once. My roommates and I will probably end up watching the VMA's with a bowl of popcorn.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
