Random Ramblings

Last week, my friend mentioned in passing the shoe sale at Suntec. I waved it off saying, that it was a ploy to get people to go into Suntec as its empty as can be (EW Suntec has a “IMF Special”).

As I was craving for potato, I trooped down to Bugis to satisfy my little craving and stupidly thought “Why don’t I swing by Suntec since it is quite late already - Shouldn’t be too crowded or too much military.”

What happened after which is a little bit of a blur. But I have three shoe boxes sitting in my room to get some hints towards the answer. Within half an hour or so (I can guarantee it was less than an hour) I had purchased three pairs of shoes. Swinging the bag gaily home, I had a strange bounce in my step.

Today, when I went out for lunch – my friend and I decided we deserved a Starbucks for all our hard work that we have been putting in, the weather was killing—ARGH, who needs an excuse for caffeine. So the two of trooped across to our friendly (work) neighbour Starbucks for our fix. But as with any woman, the lure of shoes caught us first. The minute I walked into the store, I spied these gorgeous black strappy heels. I just had to try it on! While my friend was trying on her shoes, I was happily standing around in those shoes to give my comments on my friend’s shoes. The angel and devil sat on my shoulders debating on whether another pair of black shoes was utterly necessary. I’m not sure who won—depends which side of the fence you are on I suppose—but I was paying for my shoes pretty soon after.

All the way back to the office, and for a while after, my friend and I were giggling and I definitely had a bounce in my step again from our lunch escapade.
