I woke up today with sore on my feet. Crap.
This week is such a hectic week, I don't have time to play around, not anymore. Alhamdulillah, SIFE maiden project; "Groom to Bloom" was successfully run yesterday. After much bickering, tears, and sleepless nights, we finally managed to call it a wrap.
I met many astounding persons that day but two figures I cherished them the most are Mr. Michael Teoh and Miss Nana. Mr Michael Teoh is One of the Seven Most Seven of Malaysia's Most Outstanding Youth, and Miss Nana is Executive of CIMB Group and not to forget Jenna and John Goh the Founder and Managing Director of MyPath Sdn. Bhd.
I grabbed this golden opportunity by exchanging a few words with them all, and they are very, very humble and down to earth. I Love the QnA sessions with Jenna, John and Michael and I did catched them whilst they were hovering around after the session, asking them my potential future opportunities. I also had my lunch with them and again, we were discussing about economic regression, entrepreneurship and etceteras. They are truly remarkable persons and I'm really, really looking forward to meet them three in near future!
During mock interview session, I met Miss Nana, an Executive of CIMB Group and mind you, she is a TESL graduate too! So I had a very, very, very long conversation with her, together with Laila. We asked of how on earth she can landed there in CIMB Group with a TESL certificate and she's such a chatterbox! We had good laugh with her and she told us two how dreams can make possible. And SIFE, as she told us, had helped her in many ways to develop the skills she needed to be in the board where she is now. She gave me her card and asked me to contact if I needed any advise regarding future interviews or jobs. Gulp. Thank You!!!
And the Vice-President of SIFE UiTM asked me whether I'm interested in representing the team to do presentation for this year, but of course I have to undergo screening process. I was sooo delighted because as a newbie, such offer can make me not sleeping for days!! I was on cloud nine for that day. But dream not, Moja. You have tonnes of things to do and learn. Oh my.
I have so much to share, but next time, maybe. Gotta sleep now!
I am just a mere human. One out of millions, sharing the same air you breathe, the grass you step on, and even the same over-played songs you sing. I am not a politician with razor-edged words. I am not. I am not a clown that will brighten your gloomy days with jokes. I am not. I am not a quitter, just because you asked me to do so. I will not.
I see power as the root of all evil. I know Hitler, Pol Pot, Idi Amin or Saddam. I saw how they'd turned nations upside down. But I also see power as the seed of better tomorrows. I've come to learnt power may turn yourself to be Gandhi or Teressa. But I can't help myself from committing mistakes as I walk to the altar. I may stumble, hurt and cry. At times, I soon to realized that, you don't have to prove to anybody around you how 'good' you are. Or how high your potential is. You just don't have to. You just have to sit, and start doing your job.
You can't sew someone's mouth shut. Neither literally nor figuratively. But you always have choices to be made; to shout back at them, or do your what you supposed to do and just be silent. You can always start to bicker around, but I won't get anywhere.
The more closer we are to the Dreams, the more Evil will seek you to chain your feet down to the ground. They are sore losers with tired cliche words to make you doubt. But what didn't kill you will make you darn much stronger.
God is great.
but you are not.
So I turned my head, just to take a brief look as she's climbing her way upstairs. And my eyes caught the lower, back sight of the shoes. It was blood-red.
It is Christian Louboutin's.
It's drop-dead gorgeous on that drop-dead gorgeous lady.
I can't believe my eyes, and I shouted to Madam Adzura, "Madam, is that Christian Louboutin shoes?" and as expected, it's a YES. After my friends and I had our literature class, we met her but unluckily she wasn't clad in CL anymore (of course, it was raining this evening) and we had a little chat about her shoes. How much it cost, where did you buy it, blah blah blah. And she admits that she's quite amazed how on earth I know those are Christian Loboutin's (since I'm a guy, and I wear no high heels).
Those pricey shoes are not just a sheer pair of shoes.
It's a piece of art.
Those red bottom shoes only have FIVE boutiques in the States. Malaysia? In your dream, ladies. Surely those shoes worth thousands, and maybe you may buy hundreds of shoes with that a pair of CL. Celebrities ranging from Britney Spears, Jolie, Mariah Carey, Kate Bosworth, Victoria Beckham, Madonna, Christina Aguilerra, to name a few. It's a must have shoes in Hollywood, for sure and today, I saw Madam Adzura rockin' in it! How cool is that? It's like a seeing a piece of Britney Spears in Shah Alam! Madam Adzura is a new definition of beauty with brain, I must say. Double sexy-ness!
The most interesting about the about it is its history. Go Google for it. Plus, if I'm rich enough, with five figures salary on my paycheck, surely I'll buy my wife to clad in that. Fierce!
p.s: I still wonder why most of darn-famous designers are men. Even Versace is fouded by a GUY. Donatella Versace is just his one lucky sister.
p.s.s: This is my second encounter with CL shoes. You don't want to see how I react in the first time.
p.s.s.s: Again, it's NOT a waste of money! It's like spending money on a Humvee. NOT a waste, people.
