As a girl, I love to shop. Walking into my favorite store is my happy place and getting that cute new bar top is my therapy. But, when you're on a college budget, you are forced to choose between those hot new bar shoes from Macy's or that really cute shirt from Uban Offtiters. Even clothing from Forever 21 and American Eagle start to become a bit of a splurge.

Yes, sometimes it make me depressed as I remember the good old days where I just used my parents money to get the clothing I wanted, tobut I have to be stingy and actually look at the price tag.

2. When you walk into a store and see so many cute things that you must have-

7. How you feel walking out of the store from a successful shopping spree that you saved a lot of money on

8. When people ask you if you work out

9. You try to rationalize you purchases to yourself like-

10. When you have to put something back because you don't have enough money-

11. or you pick them up anyway and say-

12. And finally when you realize that your a shopaholic and need help-
