Donut Do It.

After school today, Pickles, despite not having much money to her name, decided to buy timbits even though she knew she didn't need it. After all, she did have a coupon for a pack of ten timbits for $1. After ordering, she quickly tacked on a frozen hot chocolate. Instead of her bill being $1, she paid $3.64. If she knew she was broke, why did she do such a thing?

This past week, Pickles, also known as Angelica, has been stressed beyond a doubt with her debut, a traditional Filipino celebration honoring a girl on her 18th birthday, and life's responsibilities that were exponentially increasing. There seems to never be enough hours in the day to finish everything that needed to be done. A few examples would be studying for anatomy, designing shirts, and struggling through calculus. For this reason, Pickles weighted her responsibilities and let the least important become repressed. Today, after having her design rejected and having to create another one and coming home struggling to calculus, she needed to displace her stress into buying food she didn't need. With her buying the donuts being her superego's first failure, her additional purchase of the frozen hot chocolate explicates the complete control of her id and a pathetic excuse for an ego. The ego and superego whispered, "donut do it" and the id retorted with, "treat yo self". Chocolate is the one thing that pleases her and what did she get? Ten chocolate timbits and a frozen hot chocolate.
