I was a bit nervous, but I knew some of our friends were already into it, and they said it was fine and that I should relax because everyone was doing it.“OK,” I agreed, convinced it would be harmless._B_Before long, we were using it once a week. Then it became twice a week. We went from using it after work to using it in the mornings, and then at lunchtime, too.Suddenly we reached a point where we were using it every day. Even when I wasnt using it, I was thinking about using it. _C_Thats when I realized the terrible truth. We couldnt stop.Dear readers, it shames me to admit it, but I am an addict of online shopping site Taobao.And I dont think Im the only one. _D_ I see the telltale signs every where: People with bags under their eyes, clearly exhausted after staying up late browsing items they might one day need (but probably wont)，like the 1940s leather aviator cap I bought in the event I ever need to become an aviator in the 1940s. I see co-workers furtively (偷偷摸摸地）sneaking down to the mailroom, eyes darting around suspiciously.I know whats going through your mind as you read this.“This isnt me，” youre thinking, “I can stop anytime I want.”But can you?In China you can get same day delivery for just about anything you buy online. In Australia, my home country, the same item would take weeks to arrive.“Its the convenience, I said to my fiance. “Thats why were hooked.”But is that convenience worth the risk of waking up one morning to discover youve been buried alive in masses of brand new womens shoes?In my case its probably not, especially because I suspect my fiance wont realize Im missing until weeks later, when my credit card stops working and Ive long since expired.So what can you do to battle this terrible addiction?Never fear, dear readers, because Ive created a special five-step list to help you stop online shopping.Step one: Acknowledge you have a problem. Resist buying adult-sized, Star Wars Stormtrooper outfit on Taobao. You dont really need it.Step two: Try not to feel guilty about buying adult-sized, Star Wars Stormtrooper outfit on Taobao. Step three: Put the computer and smartphone away, get back to nature, and take a walk in the park. Step four: Try not to feel guilty about buying a new outfit for your walk in the park. I mean, it was on sale, right?Step five: Buying a book on how to quit Taobao.from Taobao. On second thoughts, maybe dont listen to me, after all.1.
