Shoes.


Haven't you noticed why women are so obsessed with shoes? It seems that the whole department store rack is in their closets.

Actually, my mom just renovated a wall across our toilet just to accommodate her high-hill shoes, and that's only high hills, not to mention sandals, walking shoes, rubber shoes, slippers, etc. her closet is another world you should visit.

Often times, women are guilty to some extent the having too much shoe collection is beyond normal. That owning the same shoe design with the complete set of colors would actually make life worth living.. My sister on the hand, her shoes are still in the box. She neatly places every shoe in its box, but not all of it coz of the lack of space.

I googled this and I found out that women have reasons as to why they love shoes so much, here it goes:

1. VARIETY - Women simply cannot wear the same shoe every day. They need change. Plus, shoes need to match outfits and outfits need to match activities and lifestyle. Plus, variety is the spice of life.

2. STYLE - Women want to look good. No, women want to look HOT! No, women want to look comfortable. See what I mean? The bottom line is that women need different styles for different looks.

3. COMFORT (AKA High Heels vs. Falts) - High heel shoes look great, but let's face it, they can really hurt the tootsies! Most women I know alternate between high heels and flats. You know what that means.. more shoes!

4. TRENDY - Unlike that hot pink leather skirt you partied like it's 1999 in, the shoes that you may have worn with it are still in fashion.

5. OPTIONS - "Should I wear my 5 inch Marc Jacobs heels today, or my 2 inch Gucci loafers?" It's a woman's fundamental right to be able to make a choice on her own footwear. In order to make those choices, women need (you guessed it) to have many different shoes.

6. COLLECTION - Some men collect FHM magazines. women collect shoes. Enough said.

7. FRIENDSHIP - If diamonds are a girl's best friend than shoes are a woman's best friend. Shoes will always be there for her. They will never shun her or treat her wrong. They will never try to steal her boyfriend or call her fat. They will never let her down. The bottom line is a women needs as many of these friends as she can get.

So there you have it. Now you know.. this is not only for women but only also for guys who have a mother, a sister and a bestfriend/girlfriend.

Bye for now, i have to go buy a new pair of Chuck Taylor Converse shoes. "Mom, where's the money!"

My Birthday Wish


I am turning 30 this wednesday..for those who were late to read this blog, I turned 30 last Feb 11.

I have never been complete in my whole life.. simply because I have matured and have become that "somebody" I dreamt in my whole life.

I dreamt of seeing/ travelling the world, I did.
I dreamt of putting an organization for the youth, I did.
I dreamt of winning a national award. I did. Actually four times.
I dreamt of experiencing love. i did. and it hurts so bad.
I dreamt of studying abroad. I did.
I dreamt of joining a competition. I did.
I dreamt of being on TV. I did.

I have dreamed a lot. and with passion and dedication, I got it.

But there are things I still want to do. . owning a car, having my own condo, building a house for my family, visit europe and put up a business.

I have accomplished a lot in my life, before the age of 30. Now I am wondering whats up for me.. just praying that things will run smooth this year.

Thank you Lord for making me 30 years old this year. It is indeed a blessing.
