the shoes shop - High heel - Cinderella - Fairy Tales

A Friday evening I walked around in a shopping arcade, finding one of the shops which is full of people... women indeed. This is a shoes shop.

High heel, the shoes that we were taught not to wear because of its shape and design which hurt your foot. But people still crazy about it..! The passion of finding the right colour, right design and most (or least?!) important - comfortable... Not that easy indeed. But they still staying in this small little shop, with extremely limited seats for picking up the right one. Maybe it is on sale, maybe it is pre-Chinese New Year.... well, you need to have an excuse for shopping? Not really! But how do you choose your ideal/dream pairs? Love in first sight?!

I have a second thought in looking at one of these pairs, how Cinderella being picked..?! The glass high heel suit in order to find her out for sure. But she must be loving it to wear it for the ball. Then the following occurs
1. Cinderella had a beautiful foot for showing off since the shoes are transparent.
2. The shoes was made by tempered glass so that they can withstand heavy weight and strong shearing force during dancing.
3. The glass high heels were light weight for dancing and run..! (well, it dropped during the escape..!)

Third thought: how do you defined a fairy tale (童話 in chinese)?! Like a classical song which has a background of middle age?! Only things like Snow White, Cinderella, Humpty Dumpty, 3 pigglets can be regarded as fairy tale? How about the modern age? No more fairy tale? You called Nardia as one? Too long possibly?! You called McMug a fairy tale? It's a comic character indeed..! You called Laputa, Totoru, Spirited away? They are more like long animation..! Is there any modern children story that could be regarded as fairy tale with good teaching and perhaps can be told as bedtime story? (Pls tell me as I haven't been hanged around the children corner in the library for ages..!)

Lastly, still wonder how dad can do bed-time story with Popeye in those old days..!

Thanks Dad! ^_^
