Spending seems to be an effective method to relieve mild depression. At least, that is how it is for me. When you spend on things that you like, it's like "woosh", your problem is temporarily removed, just like how you are giving away your money. Then, you savour the goodies that you bought, convincing yourself that you really deserve it.
Was feeling kinda down yesterday, so bought myself a box of Charbonnel et walker's Pink Marc de Champagne Truffles for £9. Seriously, it was so bloody good! Perhaps even better than kkb's champagne truffle! I guess, to a certain degree, that helped with stimulating the release of endorphin.
Felt like pampering myself more after that. So, went to some restaurant around Soho by myself at 1.30am. Had a glass of Rioja Crianza (Spanish red), sticky toffee pudding and a Sicilian kiss (cocktail). Then, it suddenly hit me that how I missed the asap gang. Back then, every time when I wanted to go out and splurge, they will always go with me even though it is not in their best interest. They provided me with support and companionship. For that, I'm eternally grateful. Well, this whole splurging act cost me £27, not something that I can do everyday.
Alas, London! Quoting a friend of mine, "I think you are emo coz winter time. Depressing." I seriously wonder how much of it is due to the weather. It would be nice if I can put all the blame on it, but I know that is not the case. There are things that I really need to sort out by myself now. Like some serious adjustments and calibration. That's what I need utmost.
