Pros and cons of big shops

     As I noticed, most people nowadays do their shopping in big shops or supermarkets. Of course it's good! The main benefit is that such shopping is convenient and relatively quick. You don't have to walk all over the city in order to find something. It's enough just to come to the supermarket's department you need - and you will get everything necessary there. Besides, you save your time, so that shopping doesn't take you for all your weekend.
     But, on the other hand, there are some disadvantages of such shopping. First of all, there are a lot of things that you DON'T actually need. But all that advertising sometimes makes you buy that not-very-expensive-cute-little-thing, which you will anyway throw away after some time.  More over, suddenly you notice, that you can't just leave a shop without buying anything. Doesn't matter, what exactly - and how much does it cost. So, where does this addiction begin? Why do people buy more than they are able to consume, more than they need - and even sometimes more, than they can afford? I've heard about that credit-addiction...
     To my mind, the best way out for such people is a very simple thing - a list. Yes, you may of course "forget" or "lose" it, but your remembering of those, say, 8 points you need at the moment won't let you to buy up to 28 :) things you don't need at all. So, do your shopping correctly, enjoy your life entirely! :)))

House Of My Dream

     When I was younger I used to dream about my own room, as if when I finally get it, it would be something like a new universe, my own one... ;)) But our needs and wishes grow with us and now I often think about what will my own house look like.
     My house will be a reflection of  my way of life, my needs and hobbies. So,  first of all, there will be a big library room within books from all over the world. There also will be books written by me. I will spend my evenings sitting in a not very big but comfort living room near the fake fireplace with a book in my hands and enjoy the life... Also I like cooking very much, so I will have a small kitchen in my house with all necessary stuff  but without those which are obviously harmful such as washing machine or microwave stove. All the rooms in my house will be light and comfortable. But the house itself won't be something huge and luxury.        One-stored building with a nice garden behind will be open to friends and relatives 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
     And for now - welcome  to my dream! :))
