I had a sudden urge to buy a $400 ipod touch the other day then decided not to because I realized I had no money and I knew my parents wouldn't buy it for me. So now i'm waiting til I have $400 to buy it.
So there were these mini blueberry muffins that had just arrive from the grocery store, to my kitchen counter. There were about 15 or so in the box, and I took one out and ate it with some cold 2% milk. And it was delicious. So I had one more, then another, then some more. I realized I had to stop because then there wouldn't be a fair amount for the rest of the family, and everybody should equally enjoy blueberry muffins.
when I was saving up to buy something and i didnt let myself buy some other things that i wanted but would make it take longer to save up for what i wanted
I want to get a laptop for like 500 to 600 dollars but I need new tires and now a look at my washer fluid container so I'm setting the laptop aside for later.
I once exhibited temperance when I decided to go to my sister's band concert even though I had a lot of homework. I decided to go to the concert instead of watching TV.
I always have an issue with staring at things. Especially "interesting" people. But my mom taught me temperance not to do that. It's been to my advantage.
when i stop doing my own thing to play a game with my nephews (who don't know how to play the game, even though i would much rather do something productive.
