Woke up this morning with the worst cramps I've ever experienced in my life. And I'm still hurting even now. I wish I wasn't a girl at times like this... but then you think of the shoes a girl can wear and it's all better :)
Speaking of shoes, I'm missing a pair of shoes!!
It's the worst thing to ever happen to me. Don't tell me I've got THAT many that I can't even locate a pair??
I realised this when I wanted to wear my purple lace heels to go out and try as I might, I just couldn't find them in any box. Which, obviously, sent me into a frenzy. I dragged the frenzy into the house where I practically tore the house down and still no shoes.
Then, my Mum finally decided that there was something wrong with me and decided to ask me what the hell was my problem. I told her I was missing a pair of shoes and she told me I wasn't. Then, she dragged me back out the door and opened the shoe cupboard. Try as SHE might, she couldn't find it.
Now, I want to know WHO STOLE MY SHOES!?!?
That's my favourite pair of heels too.
Though, I still have about 11 pairs... but that one is purple!
Seriously, don't mess with my shoes.
It angers the living hell out of me.

Ooh, have you guys watched the Tokyo Dance Trooper?
This guy walks around Tokyo and dances in a Storm Trooper costume (straight out of Star Wars). I've been watching his antics for a few months now and never fail to laugh. This guy has balls, I'll tell you that.
Anyway, I tuned in to CNN for my daily dose of news the other day with my grandma and I saw him.. on CNN! Dancing for the world to see. And then, they said 'he goes by another name, son of Jimmy Choo'. And I'm like 'WHAT?'. I think my outburst shocked my grandma. I knew he was Danny Choo but I never linked him to THE Jimmy Choo. I do not know if the shock was because this dancing Storm Trooper is the son of the designer of that awesome pair of boots that I want or because they filmed Jimmy Choo in his studio and there were SO MANY pairs of heels that could make me faint.
Either way, I was pleasantly surprised.
I was gonna embed the video here but as usual, I'm too lazy. Just go to YouTube and search out 'tokyostormtrooper'. That's his channel.
And the other thing you should notice is how the Japanese walk by the dancing Storm Trooper nonchalantly. Like it happens everyday and they're used to it. Here, the kids will kick you, cars will stop and stare, pedestrians will stand for hours watching you, people will throw stones at you trying to get a reaction (and for you to stop dancing) and eventually, the police will come and haul your ass away because you're obstructing traffic.
Which is why I like Japan... cause I still remember staring in shock at the strange things I saw while walking the roads of Shibuya or Shinjuku when I was there. I particularly remember a hide cosplayer when my Dad brought us to Harajuku.
Well, hopefully, I'll be able to go back there soon :)

I'm not even gonna comment on the current state of affairs in our country.
Everybody's running around like headless chickens shouting and yelling at everybody that comes in the way. Citizens are being treated as nothing more than children with no ability to know and choose what is best for themselves. The authority has assumed that they know what is our 'best interests'.
Like Victoria's father said in The Corpse Bride, "It's a sad, sad state of affairs"
Oh well, let's hope that everything ends well or there might be an exodus. XD
