Mood-of-the-day: Black Monday

So let's get my day started shall we? Yesterday, my dad was grumpy because it was such a hot day (thus he wanted to move to the North Pole) and when he's grumpy, everybody gets it from him for the littlest things. It's such a normal and periodic act; I could time my cellphone clock on it. This weekend's about the number of my shoes.

So I got myself a new pair of shoes last week, despite the already 3 (or was it four?) sandals on the mat. I don't get it why men never understood why women needs a good many shoes. I consider my sandals, Adidas/Nikes, high-heels/platforms and colourful flip-flops a poor-but-healthy number as to my sister's superb collection that took up the cupboard under the stair at her house.

Okay all you men out there, listen up because if you lost any idea what to buy for your love, get her a pair of shoes! Yes, I said shoes, brand new shoes. But before you screw up, here's the guideline on why women needs all these shoes!

After a woman gets dressed she has to pick out the ultimate stylish shoes to enhance the effects of her dress, or combination of shirt, coat and skirt. Usually these shoes are hard to wear and tough to break into, but the result shows it brilliantly. So she takes them in a paper bag/hand bag while wearing her comfy sneakers/jogging shoes to drive to work/school/outing.

She then changes from her comfies to her stylish and walks to her desk/cubicle/office. She'll be going through the building and pass several people so when they see her, they see the overall effect - including her shoes! Once she gets into her corner, she takes off these stylish steppers under her desk and put on these lesser stylish but almost as comfy that she keeps under her desk.

But if there's a meeting/interview/face-to-face, she has to put back on her styles. If some dreadful accident where she spills coffee on her shirt/lost her jacket/torn her pantyhose, a spare clothing or none would ruin the overall effect and this has to balance properly with her shoes! So she must always have various extras under her desk/in her car.
I know it's a long post but it's a guide afterall. Remember the same principles apply during dating/outing/gathering. So men with no clue, get your gal a new pair of shoes to match perfectly with her wardrobe. It's a foolproof gift, after jewelry of course...

Noticed that my mood today is a black Monday. That's because I haven't studied at all for the Database quiz that's coming up in an hour and a 1/2. It was supposed to be last week's but the lecturer (so very nice of her!) gave us another week to study. The week when I opened my first Xfresh blog.

So it's your fault! Yes, it is! No, don't argue! I mean, yes! Yes, it's all the pretty Xfresh Team in their pretty lil' corners working tirelessly to provide a web log service that's so addictive, with so many interesting possibilities for us keyboard-crazy, bum-glued-to-chair, html-addict surfers that our normal, safe and vaguely successful schedule was thrown into complete and utter mess.

Oh, come on! You know I'm right. Of course I'm right! But as a gesture of kindness since that my preeciouss-sss-ss is in their hands, I'm not going to point them out as culprits when my lecturer raises her eyebrow about my poor marks. So be thankful cos she's one bad-ass lecturer...
