Week 4: $hopping!

Of course it is necessary to buy things. Food, clothes, services are all part of everyday life. But do you shop as a hobby? What kind of shopping do you like to do? Some people shop for fun. Some people like shopping so much, they become addicted to it ("shopaholics"). Some people really don't enjoy it.

    Sometimes I go to shopping in Dongdemoon.
    but Dongdemoon clothes are too expensive.
    Therefore, I do Internet shopping.
    Internet shopping is very exciting to me.
    Because I like the clothes and cheeper than Dongdemoon.
    I start shopping, when i want to buy new clothes. but I buy other something than thinking goods.
    So, i'm satisfied that buying not thinking clothes.

    I like to go shopping.
    When I feel gloomy, I change such a feeling by purchasing shoes or some clothes.
    I don't care about the price of the goods when shooping.
    I care about the clothes that I buy and I am not concerned about other facts.
    However, I regret a lot after a few days of shopping and feel gloomy again because of that.
    I've never been satisfied with what I bought.
    It is because I often buy unnecessary things impulsively.
    Once in a while, I spend nearly a hundred million won on clothing, shoes and bags at one time shopping.
    After impulsive shopping like this, I can't spend money on necessary things so as to save money for a month.
    So, I feel good when shopping but feel gloomy after shopping because I regret it later...
