search for a matching sole pt. 1

didnt have much time to update the blog, been procrastinating most of the time, plus i've been working like crazy during the recent month. thanks to the store manager, Dez, i've been allowed to train as a barrista. no thanks to Dez tho, i've been given the opportunity to open in the morning a smaller outlet of ours haha. i WAS supposed to update it yesterday, but i have this bloody terrible toothache goin on for a few days, and it gets worse during sleeping hours. probably not as bad as sharing a single bed.

back to the topic of the post.

a fortnight ago, i went to Queensway Shopping Centre, over at Queenstown. to my disbelief, it was just like Pertama Complex in KL. a whole building, mostly dedicated to selling sports apparel and equipment. not to forget, fake ones too (that's what i heard). well, i went in lookin for a futsal shoe, for the reasons that a) my previous one is hell of useless and tearing apart, and b) it's a girl's shoe ahaha (seriously, i wasn't aware when i bought it)

it was either a Nike Vapour or Nike Tiempo. i've talked to a few shop owners about which to choose, most of them opted for the Tiempo, cause it's longer lasting compared to a Vapour, which they said it's usually for casual use cause it's not as durable as a Tiempo.

GIMME A BREAK PEOPLE I KNOW HOW TO PLAY FOOTBALL.

after a few rounds in the mall and most of the time getting lost, i've finally made a decision and bought one.

nike air tiempo mystic.

these babies took my eyes off other shoes (except a Vapour). the downside of them are the black rubber below the shoes, and the damn ugly black shoelaces.

front view of the shoes (see what i mean about ugly black shoelaces)

what i like about the shoes is the shoelace protectors, which have a bull emblazoned on each of them. according to another store manager of mine, Jeremy, the owner of this shop which is a close buddy of his goes to Nike conventions around the world and get limited edition stuffs out of them. golly me, i grabbed one of those limited edts (tried surfing the net to search for these but they didnt come up, hell no i'm not buying fake ones)

ownz joo.

thankfully, the shoes came together with WHITE shoelaces, so i decided to sit down at home and did what i missed doing during high school, putting on shoelaces onto a shoe. and the result...

tadaa!

and from then on, i've never touched or worn the shoe yet. lol.

incident of that day : i sat at a taxi stand waiting for the bus.

advice to singapore government, please indicate which is a taxi stand next time.
