I believe I can fly...

And I did. Really.

During my recent solo shopping trip, while I was walking out of a diner, I missed a step and had my left shoe flying off backwards while I flew forward. Ended up on all fours, heads down. There goes my diva image. But then again, what diva lah? That was just so me, I guess. Lol! Amazingly, my shopping bags survived without so much of a wrinkle. And because I am no Cinderella, I couldn't afford to leave my shoes anywhere, so I walked back to get my shoe which had survived quite a flight. Lol! luckily it didn't fall into anyone's food. Good thing I wasn't wearing a skirt, I didn't think the employees of the establishment could have looked more shocked and amused than they did. Slipped my shoe back on, shrugged and said a quick 'Ooops', flash a smile and walked out as though nothing happened eventhough my knees actually hurt like mad. And I couldn't stop bursting into giggles all day long. Lol! What a day it was...


Among the things that I bought, was a little something to get me revved up again. A belated birthday gift for myself :D. And I got it at 60% off which left me reeling with exhilaration like any proud bargain huntress would. Meet my first ever proper running shoes: the New Balance WR734 from the Running-lightweight series. I think it's an older version, but I am happy all the same. Can't wait to take it out on its first run!!! (as soon as the pain goes away, that is..:D)
