My guilty pleasures


There are things I like or enjoy doing while feeling guilt.


1. Watching TV shows

Sometimes I just want to forget all about the things I have to get done and indulge in watching my favorite TV shows.

2. the beautiful view from my apartment

I feel bad about paying too much for the rent, but I really wanted to have an apartment which has a great view.

3. coffee, coffee, coffee!

Coffee is expensive, and caffeine might not good for health, but I always love drinking coffee at a cozy cafe.

or chatting with friends


 



















4. Buzz

I won this beautiful stuffed buzz by playing the trivia game at the sting break festival. My friend also wanted it so bad, but she failed to win one.

5. shopping for shoes

The beautiful colors of these shoes make me happy. I couldn't resist buying these beauties even though I knew I had to save money.

6. Justifying

Enjoy what you think pleasurabl as though you never feel guilt for it


This quote is so famous that it is now a cliche
but I still love it.
from life on the c train























7. honey sleep

I like to have a sound sleep. In Korean, we say "a honey sleep." Every morning, I have to press the snooze button more than 10 times.

8. reading several books at the same time

My eyes are bigger than my brain. I started to read many books at the same time, and ended up failing to finish any of them.

What do you enjoy doing? Do you have your own guilty pleasures?

  2. What a nice post!

    For me, I try to watch some of the new media stuff on Youtube or other similar sites. I also listen to some relaxing music.

    I think your entry is somehow different than mine. I think that is due to people's different attitudes toward life and things. However, I really like your perspective.

    Thanks Cancion! I enjoyed your entry.

  3. Cancion the Curious Cat, the one who must have a good view from her window! I'm curious as to where you live in Atlanta. What fantastic neighborhood is that?

    What are my guilty pleasures??? I love drinking coffee in bed and drawing while I listen to NPR or an audio book of Clarissa Pinkola Estes. I love really long walks on the weekend meandering from neighborhood to neighborhood.

    I find your blog such a welcoming and inspiring place. I love it that Buzz watches over you in your "honey sleep."

    I'm curious also about what your books are and which one you think you might finish....
