Collections

At long last, I managed to clean our shoe rack and threw away some worn out slippers. I changed the old dusty cardboard I used to protect the wood from chipping. This rack has not been cleaned since several years back. I know you are chuckling folks.  

I was granted two days vacation leave from work and the following two days were my day off. Last night I thought of inspecting some stuff inside as I am running out of space where to put some shoes and slippers. As expected, most of the stuff belongs to my niece. Rubber shoes anyone? Take note you are seeing only half of the shoe rack. So, there is more.

She collects rubber shoes and comic books. She orders comic books online. She has some delivered through our post office as books are non taxable. In most cases she picks them up at her trusted courier. I have a bookcase with four shelves, almost full with books now. One time she ordered one rubber shoes online. She was sent two by mistake and to her delight.

She gave the other one to my sister. The rubber shoes, was way too big my size. Besides I am not fond of rubber shoes. What do I collect? Money of course. But despite wisely, collecting these elusive resources. I have not collected much, as of yet.

Rubber Shoes


I was at the shopping mall last Saturday, the 30th of June, destination, SM Mega Mall Ortigas Center, Pasig City, one of Manila, Philippines, busiest shopping mall. After treating me, for lunch at Shakeys Pizza my niece first pay was spent on her favorite rubber shoes. She is currently a trainee at another Call Center, not same Call Center where I am working.  It was the same brand of shoes she wore in her college days. The sales lady at the department store was smiling when my niece chose the new arrival pair of shoes. It was also paid in cash.

I could commend the sales lady for her good disposition. When my niece and I were heading towards the shelves, where arrays of pairs of shoes were neatly lined up, the sales lady smilingly said –“Ma’m rubber shoes?” She looked down and noticed the old shoes of the same brand my niece was wearing. The sales lady immediately mentioned they have a new arrival pairs of same cortex shoes. The features of the shoes apparently, are as follows. –

Lightweight, 1 lb 2 ozsC
Molded nylon arch shank
Waterproof nubuck leather
Ortholite,  anatomical footbed
Antimicrobial solution resists odor
Air cushion in the heel absorbs shock and adds stability
