Shirt

I bought a t-shirt today at River Island. Go me! Its black with crazy texturing and it is my first t-shirt which actually shows how thin I am. I don't know if that's good or bad but I'll find out.

Shopping

I finally confronted my fear of clothes shopping. I have in the past been scared of going into shops in case all the clothes are to big for me and I look silly and get told that they don't make clothes for children. Today I managed to go into quite a few clothes shops with my friend Ben (who doesn't go to St Paul's) and tried on some clothes. Admittedly no more than a third of the clothes in the shops came in sizes that fitted me but I did find some really nice stuff; only problem was, they were really expensive! I have finally had to make the jump between children and adult clothes and I feel really annoyed. I want the clothes but I can't have them :-(. In the end I bought a sweatshirt from NEXT but resisted an amazing short sleeved shirt that cost £45! I hope to carry on these exploits but it will be definitely harder next time if I go alone.

Shopping

I'm back sooner than I said because Christian Union happened earlier than planned today and so I'm bored.
At the moment i am struggling with trying to find new clothes. As you may know I'm relatively short and this presents me with a big problem. Yesterday when I went shopping I was looking for some new clothes as I've been growing out of a lot of my old ones but I had trouble finding any. One scenario I had to face was going into John Lewis and asking in the adult section if they had anything at all in my size there and being told to try the children's department and being told that I was too large and should try adult, they simply did not cater for my size. I believe that the problem is that my size is a size that people pass through quickly during their growth spurt and because of this there is simply not a large enough market for it to be worth stores stocking clothes in my size. The only place where I could find clothes in my size was a sports shop and TK Maxx and even there the level of choice was extremely limited. Where should I get my clothes and where do you get your clothes? This is a cry for help and any contributions are much appreciated.
On other news this evening is New Years Eve and I will be visiting family friends and going on a night-time walk in the park. I hope you all have a good evening and have a Happy New Year!
