Cool On The Exterior, Warm Within
Of shoes, blogs & burgers

My bro has finally completed his jobhunt: as a shoe salesman. Yest nite, he asked me the most absurd question,
"Would i need to put on the shoes for the customers?"
Amid my fits of laughter, I told him, "Yes, if you are working in a shoe shop at a five star hotel frequented by tai-tais."
What innocently funny questions the young will ask you sometimes. *grinz*
And I'm supposed to educate him about the different types of shoes later. Well, he obviously came to the right person. Gals know all about shoes!

I chanced upon my old blog the other day. The one which brought me through 2002-2004. And i must admit, it was a trip down memory lane. Many incidents that had slipped my mind since, some lost friendships, or simply most that had drifted apart. But most of all, what struck me was that i sounded young.. the tone & my way of words.. something which differs greatly from the way I write now.
Does a year or two makes such a difference?

Jiuan, kor and I went to try out Carl's Junior yesterday. Burger was significantly bigger than usual ones, though I felt it was a task finishing the whole burger. A little tiring to chew through the whole thing, haha. But serving was huge, so if u aren't very hungry, I would suggest you share. They have unique fries though, some beef-cheese fries which we tried and their onion rings are made up of long strips of onion, which jiuan got stuck on. Haha.
I guess we have all seen the Paris Hilton ad for Carl's. Thanks to Wowdee! Here's the alternative version:

Whets your appetite huh?
Some good retail therapy came afterwards. Can't believe how much we blew in 3 hours! Gotta save, save and save from now on!
