& They're boring and ugly.
I do prefer emeralds. :p Actually, my favorite piece of jewellery is an amethyst bead bracelet I got from a working temple in Nanjing. It only cost $15o and it has a lot of personal meaning to me.

Is that, uh.... not where they go? :cautious:
People make fun of me for the boiled eggs in my purse. This is way weirder.

Store food for later in your cheek pouches. Bonuses are easy access and perfect excuse to not be able to answer the phone/talk to anyone ever.

That's because diamonds aren't actually that rare... the supply is just controlled artificially in conjunction with advertising that repetitively tells consumers diamonds are worth a lot, are very rare, are an investment in your "future", are the only appropriate way to express love, etc and so on. Then to top if off, any time you want to get your jewelry appraised, you have to do so by taking it someone who sells diamonds... perpetuating the myth.

How an Ad Campaign Invented the Diamond Engagement Ring
I spent $800 on a 1.25 c moissanite and my fiancé loves it. It was actually her idea because she thinks diamonds are a waste of money. Saved me a ton of money and they look just as good imo

I think moissanite is way prettier than diamonds. I used to have one that was $4k, but it was stupidly huge and I really didn't like it. I was actually gonna sell it when we got here, but I haven't found it yet. I think it was stolen by a former roommate :cautious:

IIRC I had to throw away that purse because the egg roll smell got stuck. I had taken them home from the all you can eat place and forgotten them over the weekend.
I don't know what the hell you're doing by not putting all of this material into another book.

It would just be a really long book of me making bad decisions and seeing what happened.
