Shopping for Necessities


Today, I went to the local CVS for things I needed--items from cotton balls to chocolate. I try not to buy everything I need in one trip because it isn't exactly tons of fun carrying multiple bags a few blocks back to my suite.

A great thing about CVS is the coveted CVS card. You can get discounts on everything you purchase, and earn dollars off for the more things you buy. Unfortunately, it is not a grocery store, so everything is not available that you may want, but basic necessities are.

It's so much different than when I lived at home, where I would go everywhere before heading back home, putting all the bags in the car. Walking, or even taking the bus, I can't go too crazy or I would have to carry and lug all those parcels around.

The weather is finally get nice out again, which means no more cancelled classes. On the bright side, soon I will actually want to leave my room, and go out. I can't wait.
