One down side to working at the mall: I'm seeing how pervasive consumerism is in our culture. I marvel at the amount of money people spend every day, and supposedly the retail business is slow now. But still, people spend thousands and thousands of dollars a day (even week days!). The even more apalling aspect is, I want to be one of them. Every day I work I wish to spend indiscriment amounts of money on clothes. I like clothes and I already have a lot of them, but I just want more. It's hard not to just buy and rack up the credit card. I'm rather disgusted with my capitalistic urges.
Tomorrow class starts. At eight in the morning. Grr. I hope linguistics is fun. Lots of fun.
