holy crap, could we actually be buying a home???

today we spoke to a broker and were amazed to find out that the mortgage payments would be almost the same to what we already pay for rent!! I thought they would be more!!

it will mean that we’ll have to give up our city living and move to the ‘burbs…but we have to start somewhere, right, or at least that’s what I keep telling myself!!

if we decide to do this we still get a year of city living. might as well enjoy it while we can!

scary! feels like we are growing up!



shopping

I think its funny that when you walk into a shoe shop they look at your shoes. What, do they really think that what ever shoes you are wearing will determine wether you can afford their shoes?

Or when you walk into a clothes shop they always check out your shopping bags. I am guessing they notice how many bags and probably where you’ve been shopping. They may not take you serious if you’ve only been shopping at the dollar store or other cheapo shops…

Well perhaps not but it still seems like we are always under scrutiny. The sales people may look at you and determine whether you can afford to shop there or not. They may think that you are perhaps too fat or not cool enough. So why do we like shopping so much? Is it to make us feel better by proving them wrong? I know sometimes we may actually need to buy something but lets face it most of the time we shop for the sake of shopping.

Sometimes I wonder why I like shopping.

I had lunch in the food court at Crown Casino.

Some of us are just there to have our lunch.

There are of course a lot of tourists.

But the majority of the peeps are ‘viejitos’.

What a great way to spend your retirement funds. Especially during these tough times! :P

I cant believe that my 4th grade teacher was charged with inappropriately touching a 10-year-old girl!!

He was strange, yes, but all teachers are!! I just cant see it. In fact I thought he was gay!!!

He is one of the few teachers I stayed in touch with up until college.

I thought he was a good teacher.
