I hate it when somebody steps on your foot, most especially when they don’t even bother to apologize. I stepped off an elevator just a few minutes ago, this employee got on as I was on my way out. She stepped on my toe and continued to cackle on about who knows what and didn’t even say sorry. I hate that. I hate it too when people won’t wait until you get off the elevator and just shove themselves in. I have complained about this countless times in our quarterly employee satisfaction survey. Etiquette should be a module during training.
Okay, so my toe doesn’t hurt but there’s dirt on it. Incidentally, I am wearing my new Havaianas. And no, I didn’t buy them. It was given to me by my favorite aunt just before she flew back to California. I’ve always wanted to have one just because everybody has a pair. Imagine how excited I was when my mom sent me this text message: Anong size mo? Bibili ka namin apat Havaianas. Huwattt? Four pairs? Then I realized she probably meant dapat and not apat. My excitement went down four notches.
Every time I go inside Chocolate to check them out, I end up leaving the store empty handed. I’m just too stingy to buy overpriced rubber slippers. Besides, were not really allowed to wear them in the office. Some just get away wearing Havaianas High Look flip-flops during dress down days. Office Security are supposed to report non-compliant employees but I think it’s not really clear to them what is and isn’t allowed. One employee argued that she should be allowed to enter the office because her slippers are not really informal. She told the guard she had gold slippers so the guard let her in.
Ippo beat me to a pair of Havaianas. He received a pair of Havaianas Kids Monsters from his Tita Carla for his second birthday. I got myself beige Logo flip-flops around the same time. Those are the High Look imitations for only P150. Honestly, now that I have my own Havaianas, I can’t feel any difference. They look and feel the same way on my feet. I thought that the real ones would actually be more comfy. Maybe the flat flip-flops would be more delightful on my feet. But I’m not about to buy a pair. I don’t even know if the flip-flop craze is over.

i love havaianas flip flops bebs. got 2 pairs na nga e. and may difference kaya, ramdama kaya :-)
sige akin na lang flip flops mo :-p
The High Look Havaianas and the imitation (Logo) feel the same on my feet. Baka ibig sabihin, good quality din yung Logo. Hahaha. Oh well, siguro nga yung flat lang na Havaianas mas masarap sa paa. I've tried Dupe and hindi masarap sa paa yung nabili ko (P400 lang kasi). I was supposed to buy Ipanema, parang mas masarap sa paa, but they didnt have my size. Buti na lang, kasi mahal eh.
try croc bebs..panget sya pero super comfy. kaya lang exag sa mahal para sa panget na style na footwear..hehehe..oist kita tayo pag uwi ko ha...mwah!
You know me Det. Kurips talaga when it comes to buying clothes and footwear. Maybe a family member will give me Crocs. Almost everything I own puro bigay lang sa akin! Haha.
