There was a time in my life that I would struggle to go to SM or some department store, to buy leather shoes. I agonized over this because it meant summer was over. It meant that school was once again upon me. I would pick out the most comfortable ones. Forget style. My mom would pick the sturdiest ones. She knew the kind of abuse I put it through every day. I play basketball during Recess and Lunch breaks. At the end of the day I would toss them aside without giving a bother to clean or shine them. This was during Grade School.
