ME ~ Simple Yet Complicated

I always categorise myself as this ~ simple yet complicated. Why? I am a simple person yet I have a very complicated mind.

I tend to think and analyse a lot. For instance, there was once I wanted to buy a new bag. It was just a very simple red backpack with two [2] compartments. What were the things I was looking for?

1) Number of compartments (I love compartments)

2) Colour (I love red)

3) Material (Waterproof would be great)

4) Durability (This is an "investment")

5) et cetera

So I found my RED backpack. Although the bag had only two [2] compartments but because I love the overall design, items 1 and 2 above were fulfilled. Next, although I knew that the material was waterproof, I asked the Sales Assistant (SA) to confirm the same; so item 3 checked. My next question to the SA was, "How long can the bag last? Could it support if I put in a lot of things?" Blah, blah, blah!

The next question the SA asked me was, "If you don't mind, may I ask, what course are you taking? Journalism? Are you going to be a reporter?"

Me: "No, I study law. Why?"

SA: "You ask a lot of questions."

Me: ...

So you see, just a simple backpack, which is not expensive and I asked tonnes of questions. In the end I bought it because I have already made up my mind to buy it from the start but I just wanted to "confirm" my concerns. Haha, that sounds like a waste of time right? Well, not to me though because it is "important" to me :)
