My passion

I was out for tea with a friend who recently is 'unemployed by choice' (meaning resigned for the uninitiated) and she asked me what can she do to keep herself entertained. The conversation went something like this:

Fren: I am glad i resigned, i was seriously hating my job. But i am soooo bored now, and it's only been 1 week! What do u do to entertain yourself??

Me: I go shopping!

Fren: Got so many things to buy meh?

Me: Of cos! There are always things to buy! Any shop i walk into, i also can find something to buy!

Fren: But it's always the same stuff wat, how many times can u shop in orchard road or city hall?? Same shops, different outlets only wat. They are all selling the same things!

Me: NO! It's different wat. U can't finish all the shops in 1 day so every day it's different shops. Must learn to plan and rotate ur shopping so u see different things!

Fren rolls eyes.

Fren: Then where do u store all the stuff u bought?? I hate to see many things in my home.

Me: I operate on the 'first in, first out' basis, meaning when i buy something, i always go home and throw out something which i dun like. This way there is always an equilibrium! :)

Fren rolls eyes again.

Fren: U know, when u talk about shopping, your eyes seriously lit up. I think it's your passion. I need to find mine.

Me: Hahahaha...

Yeah, my passion. Now, if only my wallet feels the same way. Hahaha!
