Budgeting your money in college can be tough, but who doesn’t love a little online shopping? TREAT YO SELF.
1. Denial:
I can totally afford to buy $30 lipstick I don’t need. This is a great idea that has no flaws and I will never regret this decision.
2. Anger:
WHY IS EVERYTHING SO EXPENSIVE AND WHY DID I HAVE TO SPEND $250 ON TEXTBOOKS INSTEAD OF CUTE CLOTHES?!
3. Bargaining:
You know… If I buy this but skip getting coffee and Chipotle for a couple weeks… it all sort of evens out in the end… Plus I’ll use this, like, everyday.
4. Depression:
This number in my bank account seems awfully low time to cry about it.
5. Acceptance:
You know, now that this package came and I can put this lipstick on, it’s totally worth it. Who even cares about money anyways?!
