A few of the people I know went to participate in the Skecher Invitational Pickleball tournament recently. Where there were playing, Skechers was displaying the pickleball shoes with discount codes of 40% valid for only that day. Some of our other friends went there to try the shoes for size. I was too lazy to go all the way to Tampines. I saw them displaying the shoes at Bugis Junction before but I wasn’t interested then because it cost $129 and my pair of Asics was still good enough.
我认识的一些人最近去参加了Skechers匹克球邀请赛。 在比赛现场，Skechers 展示的匹克球鞋带有仅当日有效的40% 折扣码。 我们的其他一些朋友去那里试鞋的尺码。 我懒得专程去淡滨尼。 我之前在Bugis Junction看到他们展示过这双鞋，但当时我不感兴趣，因为它售价129元，而我的那双Asics仍然足够好。
🎶Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is part of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, particularly the first of the 4 violin concertos, called Spring.
🎶让大家继续读的时候，欣赏一点音乐。这件作品是维瓦尔第的“四季”的一部分 - 4小提琴协奏曲中的第一首，名为“春天”。Source | 来源: https://musopen.org/

40% off is quite a irresistible offer but I still didn’t go to Bugis Junction to try. However, I was passing through Suntec City that night and knew there was a Skecher store there though wasn’t sure if they have them. I went in and found they have only two of the man’s model. Sorry, ladies. I tried one and decided US 7 was good size but apologies to the lady who serve me, I had to order online in order to get 40% off and that brought the price down to about $77.
40％的折扣是相当不可抗拒的优惠，但我还是没有去Bugis Junction尝试。 然而，那天晚上我路过新达城，知道那里有一家Skechers商店，但不确定他们是否有。 我进去发现他们只有两个男人的模型。 对不起，女士们。 我试了一下，觉得 US 7 尺寸合适，但向服务我的女士道歉，我必须在网上订购才能获得 40％ 的折扣，这使价格降至约 77 元。
It took a week to arrive. I saw the box was just dumped outside my door when I came home from work on Monday night. Some else told me the same happened to her.
花了一周时间才到送来。 周一晚上我下班回家时，我看到盒子就只被扔在门外。 其他人告诉我同样的事情也发生在她身上。
Unboxing time.
开箱时间。
They have only 3 models for man and 3 models for woman and this is only colour I like.
他们只有3男款和 3 款女款，这是我唯一喜欢的颜色。
At the bottom, the soles are black with the “Good Year” label.
底部为黑色鞋底，带有“Good Year”标签。
Unfortunately, our courts at the club are occupied by a company for a private event this week. So, many of us are suffering from pickleball withdrawal symptoms.
不幸的是，我们俱乐部的球场本周被一家公司占用，用于举办私人活动。 因此，我们都患没得上场打匹克球。。
Anyway, the heavy rain recently probably means it is likely we cannot play anyway. So, earliest I can wear them to play will be next week. C’est la Vie.
不管怎样，最近的大雨可能意味着我们也不是很大的机会有得玩。 所以，我最早可以穿它们去比赛是下周。 人生就是这样。
