Jac's Unofficial Guide to Surviving CROCS

Currently this is the newest trend hitting Malaysians!

Fans would be:

It's cute, its striking, its cool.. its...


While those who hate Crocs would go:

It's big, its ugly, it sucks, It's..

(Si George, 2007)

Thus, I have sacrifice my happening-ness to see what's all the fuss about these shoes were all about..

STAGE 1: INTRODUCTION
-----------------------------
Being the girl who loves pink, and loves wearing 'in' things but also a smart spender..

Say hello to my Rm 12 dollar CROCS imitation from Giant!
Yes.. I am very cheap-poh :p

People always wondered why the heck did i buy it? Did i really wanted to sacrifice myself for the sake of the readers of this blog?

Do I really have such a big heart?

Obviously not! haha.. God.. if my friends and I were stuck in Titanic and there was one place in the boat,

A good friend would say: I will give you my place because you're my friend
A drama queen friend would say: I'll die with you my friend.. together
A friend like me would say: I slept with your boyfriend that day and I loved it before kicking that girl off the boat .. hehe..

So enough stressing how evil I am..

I would tell you the real reason why I have those shoes..

Obviously cause my Mom bought it for me!

"And thou shall not disobey your mother if thou want to eat good home-cooked food"

Being the good daughter I am.. (HAHA), I wore it and thus it begun my journey..

Of surviving CROCS.

STAGE 2: CRITICISM/ QUESTIONS
--------------------------------------

It seems that after wearing the imitation.. they always had this SAME question to ask me.

Are they original?

LOL..

Don't deny it people!

Don't you ask people when you see them wearing CROCS this questions?

But at least they knew about CROCS, unlike my French friends didn't even know they existed!.

They were conversing in French and pointing at my shoes and laughing!

When asked,

my friend told me "My friends say those are the ugliest shoes they've seen"

Thus only strong ones venture in Stage 3 while those weak ones give up wearing CROCS and return shamelessly back to their flip flops..

STAGE 3: ACCEPTANCE
--------------------------
I still love my pink shoes despite all the criticism and have grown fond of it. Something I hardly found myself hardly believing.

STAGE 4:UPGRADE & GLOAT/IRRITATE
---------------------------------------------
Time for a little pay back to those critics who hate your pink shoes and time for an upgrade!

Yes, during my duration of wearing CROCS imitation, I did realize one thing.. it irritate my friends out!

Thus,

To irritate them more..

Ta dah!! My brand new CROCS. Original this time.

Hehe..

With such a ridicoulous price, it give you a come back to questions like

Critics: It's so ugly
Jac: Dont be sad coz u cant afford it .. *ahak ahak* (and if possible, throw in some swings from your long hair if you have any.. it makes gloating even better! hehe >:D)

or "Are they original?" question.

Ah.. Gloating never felt this good..

So people out there who want to venture into CROCS-dom..

Wear it proud and remember when you get your originals..

Gloat gloat gloat! and before i forget..

IRRITATE!! :p
