JE63 On Impulse

            Not long ago, I wanted to spend all my money to buy stuffs I want. I often have an impulse when I see something nice and I would want to get it no matter what. The feeling of owning something just makes me feel like I’m rich. Having something cool just make me different from others. When I see them hanging in the store or lying there nicely, I would just think that it belongs to me. And I will get my wallet out, pull out my money and pay. Sometimes people think paying is losing something. However, I think of it as the opposite. I feel like paying something is to own something. However, it is not necessarily true. At some points in life I became a shopaholic and I would feel horrible for not having new things in life. Having something new, to me, is adding happiness in life. Recently, I have come to control this impulse and not to spend so much money. I realized saving should be the priority to owning something. Without saving, I would be broken in the future. Therefore, I want to start practice the habit of saving and not to waste money on redundant things.
