After finally I can get rid of steel toe boots or so called safety boots from my day to day attire and got a chance to wear all kind of fashionable ladies foot attires a.k.a high heel shoes, my feet are killing me.. slowly... I started to get blisters on my sensitive feet. One of my lady colleague told me that I will get used to it, but I'm not really sure about that.
Now.. if I may ask a question to any shoe designers who might read this post, why does fashionable shoes decrease the comfort level to zero? Most of the lady shoes sold nowadays are high heels. And guess what? They do have this feet comforter sold as well... somekind of soft pads to avoid blisters, or makes us ladies feel more comfortable wearing high heels. So it's a common knowledge that high heels mean blisters. I don't know why it was even designed in the first place except to make us feel not too short when standing beside men. I don't think that gives a significant added value either as we don't need to be tall to feel beautiful.
But well....fashion is fashion. It will still be a fashion as long as ladies are still eager to wear it. One more thing I don't quite understand. How can they stand so long and walk that fast without hurting their poor feet and legs (mind you) for the whole day. I'm impressed...
If you ever got a chance to see my shoe and sandals collections (not that they're a lot but they're still worth mentioning), and compare how fast they wear.. you'll know my preference between high and no heels foot attire.
So why I still buy those high heels shoes ?? I have no idea... it's just an impulse to do so. Maybe that's one of the reason why it survived in the fashion evolution all these years. Hehehe...my husband is actually sitting beside me, mocking ladies with their passion with shoes. I kinda agree with him... but I'm still a lady after all... I can't resist pretty shoes and sandals eventhough I can count how often I will ever use them.
What to say... I still love my feet and will always prefer them to be comfortable. Fashion be damned ;)
Here I am again after few days absent of writing anything worth writing :p I am at the moment trying to read my pre-LAT school study stuffs...on a sunday afternoon at KLCC starbucks. Very good planning back there from the hotel where I stay...eat lunch somewhere in KLCC, then afterwards hang around in starbucks while reading my study materials.But then you all can guess what happen....temptation of the free wireless connection right here in starbucks makes all those perfect simple plan for the afternoon fly away...just like that. With no warning...at least 30 minutes passed away just to browse the most tempting sites on the world wide web. Oh boy...oh boy...And here I am again, writing..or rather complaining my lack of discipline. Well...enough of this for now. I better return to my porosity determination techniques blablabla.....
For those struggling to study....keep on fighting the temptation !!!

Two in a half hour more before we reach the end of 2006 and the beginning of 2007. I will experience the transition just in the office here in KL...sigh. But no worries...I will not let the occassion get spoiled. I will cherish the moment myself. By the time it's close to midnight, I'll go down the street in front where rows of bars and clubs are definitely full with people wishing to witness the upcoming of the new year. Myself, I'm only hoping to see the fireworks (if there's any) in between the twin KLCC towers. Yep...the most important thing is for me to review my whole year activity in 2006, any achievements and failures I've done, and wishing to have a better and prosperous life in the years coming.
Happy New Year for all of you !!!
Everybody is in holiday mood at the moment. Imagine those working in KL office, they're granted with a long weekend, 4 days in total. Man, that sounds good!!
But wait a sec...I'm currently working in KL office as well....and that condition doesn't seem to apply to me. What's wrong with me I wonder. Not only it doesn't apply to me, apparently I have to switch my biological hours as well...not that I have a perfect undisturbed sleeping hours all these years offcourse...Oh no... I have to admit that for as long as I started to work in my current company...let me see...4 years 8 months to be exact..I've never have a reasonable working hours. Not that I'm complaining about it. Well...sometimes..but the point is I quite enjoy the lifestyle. Working in odd hours...having my own holiday while everyone else seems to be busy working. Having myself working while most of the normal working people enjoy their time with their family and beloved. I don't envy them as long as I have my own undisturbed time with my family slash beloved husband.As a matter of fact, being married to me means being married as well to my odd lifestyle. My husband knows exactly what I mean. Not seeing each other for more than a month, being high flyer as well just to sneak few moments to see each other, to stay awake more than what it should be. And now, he even switches his sleeping hours to match mine!! That's quite a challenge...especially for those who aren't used to this kind of unpredictable working hours. But being married to me..I think he's qualified enough..hehe..
Back to the holiday season we're having at the end of year 2006, it will be the beginning of a new lifestyle for me. I said before I wasn't complaining at all, and somehow I'll really miss it, but I think it's time for me to get a different role in my life. It won't just happen immediately as this year is ending, but eventually I will have a normal lifestyle. It's about time to get my priority straighten. Doesn't mean that we need to sacrifice one of them, but having to know which one is the most important of all is the best way to make some critical decision in our life and not to regret it later.
