Got myself a sling bag, 2 belts and a Tee. ( it's loose but the graphics is nice ;p ) Went to the counter, and i still have RM30+ left. I pointed at the corner and asked the Chinese sale assistant :
Me : Do you have those flip-flop in size 9?
Him : Harr? Sorry?
Me : Ｄ flip-flop有無９號啊？
Him : ( looked at me, still puzzled ) 咩係flip-flop？
When i told my friend about the incident, he only gave me one word as conclusion : PRETENTIOUS!
“拖鞋就拖鞋啦。Flip咩flop唶？扮晒也！“
Do you think i am pretentious?
Cos that's how we call when i was a fashion merchandiser.
Or is it my fault that there's actually difference between slippers and flip-flop?
Do you know?
i dun think u r pretentious... coz some of the time i use "flip flop" too instead of "sandals" or "slippers"...
