new shoes

sometime during the disaster that pretended to be a three-day weekend, i got a lovely pair of shoes to finally replace my worn out and dirty bowling shoes.

how amazing are they?

they match spike. perfectly. the shoes could've come with spike as an accessory.

they fit very well. imagine your hands being held by your significant other. imagine the warmth that comes from his (or her) fingers. imagine not wanting to let go. that's how they fit.

they were on 50% off.

okay, i admit it. it was the sale price that clinched it for me.

okay, fine, it was cause the sale was good only from 7 to 10 p.m. yup, it was cause there was a freebie that came with every purchase too.

okay, okay. it was cause all of my cousins were buying shoes and i didn't want to be the only one without a pair too.

i'm beginning to think though that the new shoes triggered the disastrous weekend.

see, shoes were bought friday evening. being a girl, i just had to wear them the following day, right? so, never mind that i woke up really late and had to cross from one end of metro manila to the other to make it to class by 9. i had the perfect pair of shoes. what i needed was an outfit.

so i picked a shirt. my favorite white shirt with sparkly cherries. good. except that jeans that went with that shirt was in the laundry. scratch that.

i picked another shirt. nope, i just wore them a week or two ago. to the same class. not good. scratch that too.

when i finally decided on what to wear, i realized i had 45 minutes left (or less. when you're running late you have a tendency to exaggerate the time you've got left.). i made it to class only one hour late. it was ok. someone came in later than me.

but then my afternoon date just had to cancel.

noNOnoNOnoNOnoNOno! my new shoes deserved a date! they deserved to be taken to lunch, paraded around shiny mall floors, and admired by a public who didn't know about the three-hour fifty-off sale!

so see, if you're reading this, that was the reason why i blew my top.

really.

just ask another girl. she'd verify my claim.
