I received my Cassis yesterday. Omg… she is beautiful!!! I was sorely tempted to tear her out of the box and make her mine.
But sadly, with full awareness that i had just splurged on Princess A La Mode and with Dainty Biscuit on their way and the sinking reality that my medical bills are going to be taking up the bulk of my income for the next few months, I think I will have to put her up for adoption shortly.
In the meantime, I will just content myself with looking at her through the box. I feel like a little child looking at the beautiful doll through the glass display. It’s a little sad really. It does so remind me of my childhood. The period of time when my parents were still struggling to make ends meet. The time of my life when most girls I know had better shoes, better clothes and more toys than me. It’s a bittersweet memory. I am glad I went through that, or I would have turned out to be a spoilt rich brat, unappreciative of life’s little pleasures.
I do so much want to keep Cassis. Aarrgghhh… This is exasperating!
