So today, in between my classes, I went with Rachel and Hannah back to Reutlingen so that Hannah could get boots, and I could get some long sleeve shirts. And Rachel always enjoys a bit of shopping! We went to the C&A first, and after finding some clothes, we headed up to the shoe section so that Hannah could try on some boots. After a while, she decided on a pair, which gave me the idea to try on some boots too. With winter coming, a pair of boots would be ideal. (No, I will not be wearing sandals... I don't even have any with me). I tried a few pairs on without incident, but the last pair I tried on discouraged me a bit. I was trying on a pair of higher boots, as the ones I had tried on before were just ankle high boots, when I looked up and saw this older lady giving me a certain expression.
It was somewhere between a mix of:
 |
| Tommy Lee Jones' gazing stare of disapproval, |
 |
| This random lady's look of disgust, |
 | ||
| Tyra Banks' super judging look of shock, |
Fierce!
 |
| and Ron Weasley's look of utter terror. |
I'm not sure why me trying on boots offended this lady so much and gave her this expression. It definitely made me want to get out of there in a hurry, so I shamefully put the boots back, checked out, and caught myself a train back to Tuebingen.
Weird day.
I had class earlier tonight, and now I am just relaxing in my room, reliving the strange occurrences of earlier. Tomorrow I have one class at night, and Doug and Jennie are coming to visit! It should be a great weekend! I'll just have to remember to avoid trying on any boots. (I still don't understand).
