Old story ...

Just remember a story happened more than ten years ago.....

When I was a primary student, I got new pair of leather shoes every year. My mum bought me shoes from a local shop in Sheung Wan. I still remembered the shop is "Shan Da Shoes shop" and the salesmen there were quite old. Even though I cannot pick the where I shop but my mum allowed me to choose the style.

This habit got changed when I turned to be 11. My parents decided to get me a better quality shoes. We went to a department store and got a pair of leather shoes with cute bow in front. I remember that was around two hundreds dollar (which was very expensive to me). I really love the shoes. I treasure them as it was one of the best thing I ever owned.

I was only able to wear the shoes for a week at school and something bad happened. I was the prefect at that time and I needed to open and close the gate during the school hour. I closed the gate as usual but something got stuck that day and made me push very hard. I could not handle the force and the gate scratched my foot (the gate is a large one which at least two meters high and wide)....that means my shoes also get a big red scratch from the paint (I cried immediately not only because of the pain and also the paint....

Even though my parents did not scold me but it caused bad memory for me. I felt bad to buy nice and expensive thing for a long time....Of course I start buying luxury stuffs again but I left a sad memory that I do not think I will forget...
