Shopping with Mum

[ 齊秦 ] 袖手旁觀

Initially I planned to shop for my dress for my bro's wedding... but I ended up shopping with mum at Malvern... Anyway, it was quite a driving distance from my place to Malvern, but having mum filling me in with all the news regarding my relatives in Msia, made the journey a little interesting...

Malvern has lotsa boutiques that's a little different... Mostly a bit mature for me, but mum was quite happy to find those shops which are different to the shops in Shopping Centres (High-Point or Chadstone).

Anyway, I bought a nice charcoal colour knee length pants which can be worn for office or leisure... I nearly bought the red bag too from the same shop, but I thought I shall look for my dress instead of buying more accessories... hehe...

Well, I think I spent quality time with mum today and found out lotsa details regarding my relatives in msia... Sometimes I would wonder why there's conflicts between the siblings when it comes to inherit the land/$$$... Well, I wouldn't mind if my parents give all their $$$ to my brother at all... I guess if you love your siblings enough, you wouldn't even be that calculative, yeah?? ...Hmm... but I'm sure every family has their own stories behind closed doors that I know not of...

Red Shoes

[ 陈奕迅 ] 烟味

I didn't buy these shoes when I first saw them weeks ago, cos I couldn't decide which one shall I get... I love both of them!! ...And I was going to get a pair of black and a pair of red.

I finally have time to shop this weekend, and these red shoes are half the price of the black ones... And being a cheapskate like myself, I would not pay $45 extra just for the black color in same style! ...(Well, looks like I still have to shop for a black pair of shoes, because I do need a pair of black ones for work.)

Anyway, choosing the colors wasn't the highlight for today at all... and just so you know, my right foot is actually half size bigger than my left foot... So I actually had to try on size 8 and size 8.5 for both styles to see which sizes were more comfortable before I get them...

Due to there's many people in the shop browsing and trying on shoes, and there were only two sales persons... I took the chance without thinking twice (I still don't really know where did I get the courage to do this)... I put a size 8.5 (right) and a size 8 (left) into the boxes...

I have never done this before and I just thought if I get caught by the sales person, I'd just pretend that I placed the wrong size's shoes in the boxes then - no big deal... After all, I'd tried on so many of them and it's quite easy to get all mixed up!? ...

Anyway, I pretended to be cool when I paid for them at the cashier... and they didn't even bother checking if those shoes were both in the same sizes in those boxes...

For once in my life time, I actually get to wear the RIGHT sizes of shoes on both my left and right feet comfortably (without having my left foot always compromising my right foot)!! ...hohoho...
