Buying candy and pop

Is it weird that I'm 18 and I still walk to the store specifically to buy junk food and drinks?
I don't really care what strangers think of me but I just feel like store owners look at me like a fucking idiot when I walk up to the counter with a redbull and a bunch of skittles and chocolate. I dunno seems kinda juvenile or something. That's what convenience stores are for though, so I'm a little conflicted.

I go into the one near my house looking pretty fucked up sometimes so they have good reason to assume.

Wow that sounds amazing haha. When I was in first year rez I had a nice big drawer full of snacks: sour keys/ gummies, chips, chocolate bars, clementine oranges, etc. It was called my 'snack drawer' and was the go to drawer after we smoked and were watching movies.
Thank my parents for that residence meal card

went to the grocery store and bought $120 worth of snack food because we get the munchies super bad. the cashier lady looked at us like wtf and we were giggling hard... pretty awkward considering she knew we were just going back to our room and getting high as fuck.

We have this convenience store that sells snacks and shit, we can use our dining dollars which is free money from the school to buy whatever we want at designated restaraunts and stuff like that. Needless to say, I'm always there getting like freal smoothies and Pringles.

when it comes to my munchies, this.

i throw on my shades, get my munchies, pay my money and leave. as long as im not buying cigs or alcohol, theres no reason i cant wear shades, and it makes me feel more comfortable. one of the attendants automatically knows im buying beer everytime i come in without my shades on haha
