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.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
