These Heels Are Made To Walk

Al and I drove down to The Historic Town early dawn for work today. After so long I've not been really presenting in Mandarin, I have to do it today. It stresses me out and I was yabbling. But as usual, I managed to pull if off with a big smile. Sweet and nice.

Then we drove around and round The Historic Town...and finally, did I said finally?....Yea, we finally found those red houses - Jonker Street. Wee! We parked at the other side of the river as Al is tired of driving. Instead of driving, we walk. Al was so confident that we should cross the river while I was actually pointing the other side of the direction. As I was too lazy to argue with him, I decided to shut my mouth and follow him. We walked to the other side of the river, into the Jonker Street area and got lost in it. Expected.

I was cursing in my heart when we walk. It was like never ending and I was in my black blazer, skirt, nearly black hoisery and patent heels. The sun was blazing. We were sweating like pigs. Al was trying to talk to make the walk interesting. I wanted to ask him to shut his mouth but it didn't happened because I rather save my saliva for the rest of the walk. Well.. we actually enjoy (trying to look at the possitive side of getting lost) the historic site that we never knew it was there - Hang Jebat's Tomb, mosque (forgot the name) built century ago that look like a chinese temple, more temples, a few funeral parlours.

We were walking for at least for 20 minutes and we eagerly hopped into the first air-condition restaurant that we see. Air-cond! Air-cond! Without hesitation, Al choose a table right in front of the air-conditioning. We ordered our food - western. Why are we having western food in Melaka? Don't ask me. Go figure. After our lunch, the walking journey begin again.... I'm still wondering why are we getting lost in the same place that we went quite frequent.

Ahh have I told you about my little incident this morning? Well, yesterday I bought myself some nice expensive hoisery - 2 pairs for RM49. I was happily putting it on, was actually quite amaze with the texture and it live up to what it claim to be - bodyshaper, soft comfy waistband, with gusset, durable leg & reinforced toe, special finish which means clothes won't cling. When I was about to leave the house, carrying the projector sling bag....I heard a tear 'tune' and I felt something is not right on my right leg. The hoisery was TORN! Gosh! I almost let out a loud cry but I managed to contain it as I do not want to wake anyone up. My new RM25 pair of hoisery! I wore it for about 15 minutes and it's gone! Can't believe it. There goes my money...I was cursing all the way to the office.

Guess what? Tomorrow I'll have another adventure with Al. Fly all the way to the south on a day trip. And, I have to leave the house at 5am to drive all the way to KLIA...alone. Darn.

I'm not wearing hoisery tomorrow.


Till then..
