Dear five or seven years old kid in the metro,please don't stand on my shoes,it's suede and expensive,way more expensive than that of your mom's!Aaaaaaaarghhhhh!

A simple pair of yellow pumps has magic powers.It can pull you out of any frustration under the sun!Incorporate a little yellow in your wardrobe and trust me,the world seems to be a better place! I've the yellow kolhapuri all right(if you don't remember it,click here and here to have a look) but I had a pair of yellow pumps on my mind since,like forever! So,when I got this beauty in Simpark Mall a week back,I didn't think twice before taking it home.I've been waiting to wear it since then.Finally,I wore it to college today.The day was a total waste though.I was supposed to collect the affidavit form(where my parents are supposed to give a written statement that I won't rag any junior,only then will I get my sixth semester report card) from the exam cell which I couldn't because the teacher who was supposed to be in Web Technology lab,giving out forms,was actually 'busy' at Axis Mall,'enjoying himself' at the fest.Yeah,my college is finally organizing a fest.But I'm not attending since I've a hell lot of studying to do.Go ahead and call me a nerd.I hate myself too.Anyway,so,I went to Haldirams and had one of the best 'dahi phuchkas' of my life! And then,I treated myself to a plate of healthy (and feel good) idli.Hundred bucks for all these isn't too much,right?All was well until I boarded the metro and a very considerate crowd raped my shoes!I hate people who think just because it's a crowded train,they can do whatever they wish-groping a girl half their age,standing on someone else's shoes as if they were his/her cushions,attacking someone else's bag with their umbrellas. I've always traveled in public transport but I don't remember causing any discomfort to anyone,ever! My clothes and shoes and bags and nail paints and everything else are important for me.So,I understand that other people must love theirs too.And I take my best efforts to make sure that I'm not the reason of someone's 'wardrobe malfunction'.I wonder why people can't have the minimum manners. This kid was practically taking a walk on my shoes and when I asked him to get down,in the most polite way possible and his rich,fat,salwaar kameez-clad mom with a bad taste and bad breath hurled every possible curse on me! And,to my surprise,most of the 'ladies' around actually supported her! And that's how my poor little yellow pumps died a premature death,by a monstrous seven years old.*two minutes silence*
Anyway,luckily I captured its beauty on my lenses long before it said 'good bye' to me.Now I regret not taking more pictures.Thought would share the only proof of its existence.Otherwise,maybe,years later,people would actually refuse to acknowledge how beautiful it used to be,once upon a time!
P.S.My mom says I look WAY fatter in this top than I actually am and I agree with her.But I simply fell in love with it and haven't recovered ever since.You see,they don't say 'love is blind' for no reason.;-)
And all those who're sick of my black denims,please,don't ditch my blog for them.I'm looking for a pair of red ones.Just haven't found any in my budget yet.
