WHAT DID I WANT MOST AS A TEENAGER❔.
•
For me it was a nice stylish pair of shoes 👟 .
•
Growing up in Subang Jaya where my schoolmates were a bunch of rich kids...I sometimes felt shy on special school days where we were allowed to dress freely.
•
These kids came in the latest branded shoes and clothes.
And I came in my mediocre attire.
•
I remember it well, it was the year of recession back in 1998.
My family wasn’t in a good place financially.
We had to sell our house and moved into a rented one.
My mama had to walk 5km to the nearest clinic and worked as a nurse to help my father make ends meet.
•
I worked right after my PMR exam was over at a nearby supermarket - arranging groceries, lifting heavy boxes, to help the family and for some extra pocket money.
It was actually during these years my face had an allergy reaction from all the dusts - that caused my acne & scar issues...which I battled for a very long time.
•
But there was the matter of shoes.
•
Mine was pretty old.
But I kept it clean.
I didn’t want to waste my parents money, it was better off used to pay my tuition fees. I wasn’t good in mathematics...I needed to put in extra effort (where I scored straight 8A’s in the end Alhamdulillah).
•
So you can see how grateful I am now when huge shoe brands worldwide now work with me endlessly.
Paying me to wear and promote their shoes. It seems like a dream sometimes.
•
My collection has reached up to 65 pairs, between RM600 and my most expensive here at RM4k...all thanks to @valiram from @giuseppezanotti.
•
I actually told one of the bosses yesterday during the @stevemaddenmalaysia event - “At such price it just seems fit to either don these to the Oscars OR my wedding...can’t simply wear anyhow”.
•
The boss laughed and said kindly “As long as you do wear. You’re very welcome”.
•
Yes...it might be weird to some. The arrogant ones might snigger reading this.
But you can see now...how even shoes can make me feel humbled 🍃.
