Mid week ramblings  
I swear my family house is falling apart. We've been living in the same place for almost 21 years now and alot of things are beginning to break down.
This is the umpteenth time the kitchen lights has given up on working, the ceiling fan in the living room has been changed 3 times and its making wierd noises now and then, my bedroom ceiling fan has gone bust so i have to buy a standing fan and put in my already crowded room. The other kitchen light that lights up the other corner of the kitchen has also gone bust. If we attempt to turn it on the whole house blacks out and now the television sometimes goes on strike and doesn't turn on.

I think for an average large Singaporean HDB household family we have been living in the same house the longest. I realised that most of our surrounding neighbours, including the flat directly opposite our block has changed. I think if our HDB flats were not build to last i think my home will have loads more problems. Aside from that there are countless changes to the neighbourhood. I still don't like the condominium that they are building diagonally adjacent to my flat. Such an eyesore =P I very much prefer the open field that was there. Then there's the construction works being done to 'upgrade' the neighbourhood. They tore apart the badminton court, trees and open space to build a vegetable/flower garden and a roofed venue thingymagic whatever they call it i forgot lol. wtf. Now who do you reckon is going to take care of this garden? And the purpose of this small garden and enclosed space is for what actually? *rolls eyes*

On a much happier note, the boots i ordered online is here! yay! I know I know i should stop spending, which i've already done. Honest! The boots was ordered last week and it was on discount =P Its not like i can get my shoe size here in sg. Now i have to think of outfits i can wear it with. wheee

PhotobucketPhotobucket.


My mum was rolling her eyes when she saw my new boots. Another item in my shoes collection she said lol. Which is kinda true. I don't wear 80% of the shoes i own. Its like retail-therapy. I like buying shoes but i usually wear my sandals and sneakers as they are much more comfortable for me (^-^)v

Whenever i see girls wearing high heel shoes, especiallly the stilettos type, i'd just look at them in awe. I can never wear such shoes, firstly because i believe it was originally invented for torture and secondly i can never balance myself in those shoes. Anyways i'm already tall as it is, no need for added height aye? or i'll scare all the boys away hahahaha Anyways, gorgeously made shoes are always nice to look at and it also can complete an outfit. Which is why my outfits are usually casual since most of the time i wear casual shoes/sandals ahahahahahahaha I like being comfortable cannot meh =P Sometimes when i find myself having to wear heels, i'd tell myself 'no pain, no gain' but most of the time life is too short to torture yourself, so as long as i keep to my own style and be as comfortable as i want to be then carpe diem! lol

oh well, i have more things to ramble on but i need to get ready to meet my sis
till then!

Haha, caaaaaan! I look at girls in stilettos in awe too because I cannot for the life of me balance either. :( And even for the thicker heels, by evening my foot really hurts. So I stick to flats too. Heels make your legs/walk look so much nicer though. :O

haha i agree that heels make your legs/walk look nicer but since i don't really need the added height i choose comfort over pain lol XP

Ah yes, I've been nagging my parents about our old house as well. I've resorted to threatening them with blackmail photos of all of these problem areas and posting it on the internet. Unfortunately, they're not listening to me. x___x

I love your new boots! They're absolutely gorgeous. I'm still looking for a pair of leather boots that work. I think that stilettos are clever torture devices too. I think one of my favorite quotes from a really embarrassingly bad movie that I like was about how high heels were made so that women couldn't run away or something.

Two inches-three inches are my limit. Three may be pushing it but yeaaaah x____x

Haha thanks! i love my new boots too!

gosh i've always wondered who invented the stilettos, if there's any truth behind your quote it must be a man i reckon LOL

ditto for me with regards to heel height. I feel like I would fall over at three but to at least walk properly the heel has to be either wedges or thick heels I can never balance myself with those thin ones =P

i lived in my house for about 27 years and my bathroom is falling apart and it hasnt been remodeled yet while everything else has.

those boots looks nice.

i also cant wear very high heel shoes, just recently i went to the mall and i saw some and i wanted to get them but my mom was like you cant wear those you will fall. It looked cute, but yea i wont be able to wear those without tripping.

wow 27 years! Thats really long. Does your bathroom leak and stuff? if it does you should convince your parents to quickly remodel your bathroom before it floods the whole house lol.

hehe Thanks!
I know how you feel! I always see cute heeled shoes when i window shop but i can never wear them even if i could its very hard to find my size. Average Singaporean sizes are too small for me. Bright side of it is that i save money lol!

it makes sounds when showering but i think in a matter of time i mean the ceiling has stains but they patched it up. We were going to but then my dad decided to cancel the the people who were to do our bathroom.
