I’m so sorry that I haven’t posted anything in a while. I’ve been busy trying to reset my Macbook back to its old state (and I’ve been really unsuccessful). So, I get to start all over. I’m kind of excited to get some new music for my iPod (iTunes is having a sale on jazz that I am taking COMPLETE advantage of).
By the way, if you were wondering exactly how much it cost to get my laptop repaired, it was $1350 – all done FOR FREE!!!!
Let’s get back to current stuff…
Today, I learned something. I learned that shoes can make you a completely new person.
At about noon, my mom and I went out to the QVC outlet in Paoli. She’s been hunting for this belt buckle ring that she saw on Jewelry TV and saw in a store a few days later (pictured below):
So, we went into the store. She went to go look at the jewelry; I went to look at some shoes. The shoe selection wasn’t too big, but what they lack in quantity, they made up for in quality. I looked around for a bit, and there were some really cute shoes; and that’s when I laid my eyes on these puppies:
White Mountain slip-on flats in blue
I grabbed the first pair I saw. They were a size 9. I was surprised that they fit me, being as I am a size 10. They only problem was that they were a little tight around the top of my foot.
I went back to my mom at the jewelry counter. I told her that I had found something I liked, so she asked me to bring them over. When I went back to the shoe rack, I grabbed a size 9 1/2 instead of the nine. I show them to my mom, and she said, “Well if you like them, they’re on sale, so let’s get them.” As soon as I got into the car I slipped them on. They were a little loose, but it wasn’t too bad.
When I got home, I decided to put the shoes on and walk around a little bit. They felt a little funny since they were a little too big, so I put some toilet tissue in the toe of each shoe to fill them out. I was a pretty regretful that I didn’t get the 9s; and that’s when I went onto the internet.
I went onto QVC’s website to see what other White Mountain shoes they had. I saw the shoes that I had just gotten, so I decided to see the reviews. A lot of people said that they were really cute but it hurt them at THE TOP OF THEIR FEET!
I was so happy that I decided to go half a size bigger. They’re so comfortable and stylish and I can’t take them off! I’ve been dancing around the apartment in them! I’m wearing them right now! It’s incredible that just a simple $20 dollar pair of shoes can boost your confidence, but they do! It’s so surreal, but it’s still pretty awesome.
I can tell that I’m going to be wearing these shoes very often…
