You know, I actually set up my laptop and made a cozy corner amidst the mess that is my living room so that I can prepare some slides for work (that I have been pitifully putting off!) when I decided that I want to blog something...
That's Procrastination hard at work!
Damnit!
I'm, once again, blogging about shoes :D Muahaha... I tell you, the way to a woman's heart is thru her feet!!! (oh well, this woman, anyway) I've been wanting to blog about this since a LONG time ago but I haven't had the chance... Anyways..
In Sept, I went home to the Great Place That Is. This place is so great, it doesn't even need words to describe it :)
Yup.. That's THE GREAT PLACE THAT IS that I am talking about.. Anyways, Chin Aun and I drove back during Raya to bask in the love that is home for a week. And in that week, I made the most of my time setting up shopping dates with Mello and Bee Sung and spending the rest of my time with my family, doing things that family do.
Mello and I went to QB to check out what stores opened up there (for my sake because I haven't been there since forever) and we happened to stroll into Crocs. I wanted to show her a pair of sandals that my sis and I were planning to get for my mom.
To cut the long story short, Mel and I walked in, tried on pairs after pairs of shoes and when I found my senses again, I was clutching on to a Crocs bag and so was Mel!! I checked the time and it has been an hour and a half since we stepped into the store! Can you believe it?!?! It's amazing that this happened in broad daylight!!

MEL AND I WERE ABDUCTED BY ALIENS!!!
TOGETHER!!!!!! FOR OVER AN HOUR!!!!!!
IN BROAD DAYLIGHT!!!
WITH THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AS WITNESSES!!
AND WE WERE GIVEN CROCS AS SOUVENIRS!!!
Isn't that totally awesome!?!??! What I wouldn't give to be abducted again *grins*
So Mel and I proceeded to discuss our miraculous abduction over a cup of coffee in Secret Recipe and checked out our gifts from our new-found-alien-buddies..
Pretty neat right?? They even gave us our shoes in our right sizes! Mine's size9 and Mel's size 7 (? - I think)..
Mary Janes - Sea Foam
Mary Janes - Lavender
And you know what? Those extraterrestials were so darned sweet too :) They gave us the shoes complete with Jibbitz!! Mine has a Pooh Bear sleeping with a Honey Pot and Mel has Marvin the Martian (I KNEW they were hinting something when I saw that!). They also gave us matching MO Jibbitz on each of our left shoe!~ That was sooooooooo sooooooooooo sweet :))) *teary eyed*
Marvin, Pooh Bear & MO
Look! A perfect fit!! :D
When I got home, I came to know that my sister also experienced the same abduction issue!! The aliens gave her a pair of blue suede shoes ;) My dad made known that he felt very left out when we were discussing our abduction adventure that we had to use our telepathic connections to communicate with these special foreign beings to come abduct my dad as well. They blessed him with a pair of boring black slippers that suited his old-man preferences well..
That's the 3 of us in our alien-induced glory
Sobek in Black
Celeste Suede in Chocolate/Peacock
And since the 7th of Oct was Chin Aun's Bday.... I once again misused my mind power to tell them aliens to send him a pair as birthday present ;) Boy, was he happy with them ;)
Off Road in Army/Orange (Chin Aun actually received it in another color but I could not find a picture of that)
*********************************************
I just heard from Mel that a total of RM252 was charged to her credit card for the month of October. It happened in the short span of time that we were abducted. The thing is, her credit card NEVER left her purse.... I guess we'll never really know what happened in that 90mins in Queensbay Mall on that balmy evening of the 1st of October...
*****************************************
I know... I'm so full of sh*t... Ah well, but if you are reading this crap that I am writing at 11pm at night (to get out of doing my slides for presentation!) you must love me - even a little bit!. Haha...
