Hi Shefali,
Good luck with studying this week! I’m sure you’ll do great on your test. 🙂
Karen says
Hi Ellery,
Yay, there’s my happy Monday friend! What are you shopping for this week? 🙂
And helloooo — how can you hate chocolate? That’s like my favorite thing in the entire world.
Karen says
Hi Meimei,
Oh! I love to knit, too. I’m pretty terrible at it, though. I can to scarves and that’s about it, LOL. I tried making a hat once and it was the UGLIEST thing I’d ever seen before in my life, ha!
Karen says
Hi Holly,
I figured! You will have so much fun at Target, seriously… I hope you make it out there this time.
Karen says
Hi Karen4,
How cool! I have always wanted to play a string instrument but never got around to learning. How long have you been playing the violin?
Karen says
Hi Music_Is_Freedom,
Ahhh, the scent of coffee is the only thing that’ll get me out of bed on a cold day.
So how do you feel about the taste of coffee flavored ice-cream? No?
Karen says
Hi Vampy Varnish,
How fun! I haven’t been on a pair of roller blades in years. I want a pair of old school roller skates though — you know, with the two wheels in the front, two wheels in the back. Back in the day I used to hustle pretty fast around the roller skating rink in those, LOL…
Karen says
Hi Tiera,
Fun! Did you pick out a skin for your iPhone yet?
Karen says
Hi Tiffany,
I have gone through phases where NOT shopping is extremely challenging, too. One thing I’ve found that helps is to just make myself wait — if I’m still lusting after whatever I wanted to buy in two weeks I’ll go back and get it. Usually that’s enough time for me to forget about wanting it, LOL.
Karen says
Hi Camellia,
Sorry to hear that you aren’t feeling very well. I hope it gets better for you soon. 🙂
Karen says
Hi Lindsay,
Why so angry today, my friend?
Karen says
Hi RetroRiotGrrrl,
Yay, MAC Vex! I heart it so. 🙂
How much do you have left for school? Will you be done soon?

Hi Shana T.,
Nice! Will you be doing anything over your holiday?
OMG — I’m terrified of rats, too. I *hate* their tails. Blech!
Karen says
Hi Marisol,
I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your cousin. Big hugs… both for the sadness of the anniversary and the happiness of the new phase of your career/life.
Karen says
Hi Rachel,
Looks like many of us are in the same workout boat! What type of exercise do you like to do?

that is a great tip for not shopping! thanks Karen, I’m gonna try it! the other thing I need to do is stop shopping online entirely. it’s just too easy, ya know? I know I’ll shop less if I have to drag my lazy ass to the store and hand over my debit card, lol.
