Person of my own

Person of my own

Don't get me started. I don't need that designer stuff. You see those
labels? Fifty pounds for one pair of trousers. That's nearly two months
allowance for me. I'm broke. I get thirty pounds a month. And I am not
wasting my money on one designer item and then being broke for the rest
of the month. Similarly, I don't like fads. They leave me broke! At our
school there has been 4 major fads. First in on the act was Pokemon
cards. Why? Quick in succession were Harry Potter cards. Please! A bit
slow on the game were Crazy Bones. They were just a lump of plastic
with a painted face! And now it is a yo-yo re-make. Spiky rubber balls
on a rubber string with goo inside which bounce up and down exactly
like the yo-yo. Many have popped. Many have been devastated. I am glad
I do not go with the crowd.
