Will or Would

Hi,



I have some confusions here with tenses.



I think maybe because of the weather I become sluggish. No more outdoor or indoor activties for me as the weather will get very stuffy and clammy at night. I would not want to go to the mall with sweaty cloths before I even get there. Unless I need to replenish foods in my midget fridge then I would go. Foods that I will buy would be all Japanese foods like chocolates, cheeses ticks, layer cakes, assorted nuts & crackers & cakes or fruits. Drinks would be juice & Hi-cal low fat milk.



The whole essay is in present tense and I'm not sure if both 'will' and 'would' would be appropriate to use in a same essay. As 'would' is prefered to use in past tense form. But then sometimes I think by using 'would' in the present tense essay it sounds better to my ear. Would you please advise me the usage of 'would' or 'will' based on the short essay above?

Thanks.
