Choose: comfort or nice looking shoes?

I chose the latter. And what can I say to myself is 'serves me right!'. It was a long day and we had to attend an event at Bangsar Village 2. I was wearing a pair of (I, myself claim it to be) nice looking black heels to the event. And of course Miss forgetful-me left my comfortable sandals in the office, so at the end of the day, I just could not stand it. I should always remind myself.. comfort should come first, but it was an media event.. what was I to do?

At the end of the day, I felt like going barefoot .. but of course, it was not proper to be doing that in Bangsar right.. people would have looked at me like I was an alien.

Anyway, so while trying to overcome the pain, I went into various shops to find a pair of flats. I tell you, Bangsar Village is so not the place to find flats for less than RM30! No hope of seeing Bata there right? I just needed a RM10 pair of slippers to save me.. nothing fancy for sure.

So in pain, I had to pay RM50 for a pair of Ipanema slippers/ sandals. Urrghhh..at the time, I didn't know which one was more painful, forking out the money for something that I desperately needed for that one time only or my nearly bleeding feet?
