My Take On "To be or not to be"

To online shop or to not online shop--that is the question.
Will it be more beneficial to my bank account to save my money or better for my reputation to have an astounding closet?
A credit card--spending--my own credit card would be just a dream as long as I had the money to fund it.
There is the catch right there-- I must have my own money before I navigate the dozens of websites and fill my virtual closet with my wants and needs. 
This makes me worry--I must consider finding a job despite the fact that it might make this addiction much more severe. 
Regardless, who would rather have an empty closet of dull outfits, or live without the excitement you get from receiving a package on the front steps of your house, or let your dream dress become sold out, when you can simply ask your parents for the 16 digit code on that shiny piece of plastic? 
Who would choose to live a life of t-shirts and sweatpants when you can wear cashmere sweaters, blouses, and jeans from various clothing sites?
The fear of overdrawing your credit card can be debilitating, and our longing eyes can be a dangerous mixture with the thousands of apparel thumbnails. 
Oh no! My parents are coming. I better minimize the J.Crew website and open up my Word document!


(This is a satire of some sorts, Mr. Hogan)

  1. This is so well written McKenzie! It is also really funny and relatable. The word choice and sentence structure adds a lot to it and it flows nicely! Great job!
