I am in the midst of MIDTERMS and last night /today I lost it. Broke down in tears - I had had enough! I was angry/frustrated/stressed/upset and a myriad of other emotions. I needed to get out of the house - so I got in my car and ended up at D.I.
As long as I can remember, I have hated D.I. Maybe it's the smell of b.o. and old people - or the actual homeless people that wander around there that scare me. Regardless, I wandered over to the books section and there I spent almost an hour and half! I found my stress relief. They have an awesome book collection! It's like 5 aisles. I found bestsellers in hardback and paperback. They have everything from Shakespeare, Nicholas Spark, and yes even Twilight and Harry Potter. I went through every single book. It relaxed me so much. I cannot believe how much in LOVE I am. I adore books and I could have spent another 2 hours searching. AND none of the books at D.I. are like over $6.00
My Purchases:

| All under $5.00 |
So I started the day in utter despair and ended it with a good book and 99 cent crazy bread.
I didn't know D.I. had a good book selection. I've never been to the one close to me yet, I'll have to check it out!
ReplyDeleteThis post totally gave me a flashback. I swear I had break-downs every other day in college and I would by a Little Ceasar's pizza or breadsticks once a week as my stress food. Stress must burn calories or something because I should of gained a lot of weight with all the stress food I ate :).
Good luck with midterms!
I agree about the D.I. smell. And I love that quote...and I wish Goodwill had such a good collection...and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is on my 'to read' list..and I just have a lot of things to say about this post :)
