Bad Shoe Week

I ruined two pairs of shoes this week, that must be a record! The first was really embarrassing too. I was at my client's premises when I realised the right sole on my shoes had split but I still had to walk around in them simply because the alternative was to walk barefoot! As I was walking away from one of the executive's work station, I slipped due the split sole and landed on my bum, followed by my uttering "Ouch"! At that, all the other executives around stood up to see what it was all about. Being the professional that I am, I had to calmly stand up and walk quickly back to the meeting room where the rest of my colleagues were. And to rub salt to my wound, when I related the sorry incident to my colleagues in the meeting room, they all burst out in loud laughter and no words of sympathy for me! :c(

Incident number two happened tonight as I was walking towards the bus stop after dinner with my friends when the strap on my high heels gave away! There goes another pair of shoes and this was an expensive pair which I had seldom wore! Sigh. Luckily I had purchased a pair of shoes before my dinner date. I limped my way to the bus stop and proceeded to change into my new shoes. I ended with mismatched shoes as the shoes I had bought were formal and my outfit was casual. Of course I was just glad that I did not have to walk home barefooted lah. Sigh, thank goodness it was late and there were few people on the bus!
