I will write for myself, to alleviate the apprehension in the depth of my soul.

Rule #44: Fashion knows not of comfort, all that matters is the face you show the world.

I feel so out of control, I feel like I’m on the outside looking in and someone else is at the steering wheel. This is my attempt to chronicle my quest to being in charge of my life and to be the woman I have always wanted to be….But, am I going to reach my full potential? How? What scares me is that the future I’m trying to build for myself can easily be changed. Well at least I know I am doing the right thing: fighting for what I believe in!

Anyway, I finally got a job @ Steve Madden last week, one of my favourite shoe designer stores! I had a lot of shocking reactions and remarks from my friends about me having a part-time job especially Hidayah who went like, “NADIAH? Working? Are you seriously kidding me?!” I really don’t get what’s the whole issue about me being a part-timer and whenever I asked, I always get this reply: “You’re like so fucking princess and now you’re working?” Shrugs. I need money too like everybody else! I can’t always rely on my parents, can i?

The uniform is absolutely hideous with the blue/red tights, but hey I get paid for it so I should not mind! Time passes so quickly since this job often keeps me moving, plus, I get to look at pretty shoes every day and see them being worn by beautiful people which gives me happiness! Working @ Ion outlet is so much better than Isetan as there are more customers which means more commission for me. I can't deny that I hate Isetan’s storeroom! Can you just imagine? Me. Climbing up the huge shelves. From right to left all the way up to reach for the boxes. Without any ladder! Jeez, I hope I don’t die from falling off the shelves and hitting the back of my head. They were a few times I almost fell because the shoes are so heavy that I couldn’t balance myself. Right now, I just need a massage!!!

One of my customers, in her late 20s, had a quote tattooed at the back of her body, “Life would be better if unicorns exist.” I giggled straightaway thinking how ridiculous it was! ‘What can a goddamn unicorn do?’ I had the urge to ask but I didn’t want her to take it the wrong way since I’m not a believer of this non-existence/fairy-tale creature called Unicorns. It’s like trending in social networking sites these days, isn't it? Seriously can somebody enlighten me, unicorn lovers, what can these creatures really do to make life better?

Before I forget, Steve Madden is having a private sale for those with VIP Membership Card. 30% off for all the shoes!!! If you buy two or more, you’ll get 40% off. AND NO, don’t come to me for staff discount because sadly I can’t have any. I gotta wait for the next season and then I’ll get 50% discount for maximum 5 pairs. AAAAH I CAN’T WAIT!!!!!!! Those who have not been there, do drop by and check out all the gorgeous shoes! xx
