Confession of a Klutz

7.45 am

Left the house for the office..
dum dee dum..
I'm going to be early again today...


8.00 am

Reached the Masjid Negara roundabout (3/4 of the journey)...
I am soooo gonna be early today..
Hmmm.. which shoe shall I wear today? The flat or the heeled mules?
Maybe the heeled ones laa kut coz it has been quite some time since I've last worn those...
Reached at the back of the co-pilot's seat (I keep all my shoes in the car)...
Arrggghhh....!!!!!!!
Looked back...
Nuthing...!
No shoes...!!!!!

Looked down at my feet... I'm wearing my driving flip-flop (selipar)...
No.. nooo.. noooooooooooo


8.05 am

Dialed Mrs. Wacko's number -

Binx: U......... U tau tak kedai mana yg jual kasut yg bukak at this time?
Mrs. W: Huh?.. errrmmm... Takde laa U... Why larr?
Binx: Arrgghhh... I left my shoes at home!
Binx: I'm wearing my selipar jek nieh.. How laa U...?
Binx: 7-E jual kasut tak ek?
Mrs. W: *lol* If I have an extra pair in my car pun.. U won't fit in it kan..
Binx: Ha ah.. *sob*
Binx: It's ok laa U.. I'll figure something out...


8.15 am

Arrived at the parking lot. It's quite a distance from the place that I parked to the office building... How am I going to pull this off?

I kept my cool.... Tried to loosen the pants a bit so that it'll cover most part of my flip-flop covered feet. The best part of the whole chaos was that the flip-flop actually matches my outfit (purple shirt, purple tudung and.... purple flip-flop!!).. *lol*.. I never wear matching shoes. However, of all the days, today my selipar matches my outfit perfectly.

8.17 am

After paying the kakak, as fast as the speeding bullet, I 'flew' towards the building. Luckily the crowd at the famous gerai was not as packed as usual. Maybe because it was still too early for the normal crowd... phewh!


8.20 am

Entered the lift.. Argghh.. ramai laa pulak..
Went in to the back of the lift..
One guy actually stared at my feet, tak cover langsung..
Keep it cool, girl.. Keep it cool..
Nasib baik 5 floors up aje..

"Ting" - rushed out of the lift...


8.21 am

"beep" - swiped in i/d tag
Entered the department and was relieved to see that most of the staffs still haven't come in yet... This is good because if otherwise, I would have to parade my 'beautiful' flip-flop in front of the entire department before reaching my cubicle at the end of the office...

And at the cubicle was where I spent the rest of my day, hiding my purple colored flip-flop under the table.....



binx: bangs head on the table... why me...?
